At UW, 66% said YES by lain Anderson special to Imprint By a ratio of exactly two-to-one, the Co-ordinated Student Directed PIan by University of was accepted Waterloo students in a referendum which took place on Wednesday and Thursday. A relatively low turnout of 15.9 per cent came out to the polls, meaning that a totai of 2,408 ballots were cast from a total of 15,140 .eligible voters.

“I’m quite pleased with the results,” s&d an ecstatic John Leddy, president of the Federation of Students. ‘This result validates what we found in the surveys and shows that the Plan meets student needs.” The Chief Returning Officer Carolyti Thomas met with Federation general manager Fred Kelly yesterday to discuss a letter of objection submitted by Imprint alleging that the Federation’s bylaws and policies concerning referenda had not been

followed (see reIated story). By contrast to this year, the failed Student Life Building referendum of November, 1990 produced a nearrecord 27.8 per cent of students coming out to vote. The total of 2,408 ballots broke down as follows: 1,590 “Yes” (66.0 per cent), 795 “No” (33.0 per cent) and 23 spoiled (1 .O per cent). Applied Health Studies/

Feds forget own bylaws by Dave Thomson

Imprint

staff

Although the results of this past week’s Student Life Centre referendum indicate a two-thirds support for the proposal, two hnprint staff have filed a complaint regarding what they view as procedural problems with the running of the referendum itself.

Imprint Editor-in-Chief Peter Brown and Assistant Editor Dave Thomson filed the, complaint with Chief Returning Officer (CRO) Carolyn Thomas late in the afternoon of Tuesday, January 28, the day the referendum started. In the three-page statement, they take issue with what they perceive as violations of portions of their corporate By-Laws and some Federation policies. In Federation of Students’ By-law 1 (Transaction of the affairs of the Cor-

poration), Section 12 that deals with Referenda, it is stated that a referendum may only be called by a vote of Student’s Council or the Board of Directors. Federation president John Leddy claims that he received a majority approval from the Student’s Council by phoning individual councillors. Furthermore, he believes that approval from the Board of Directors was implicitly given since each memher of ihe B&&l of Directors sits on Student’s Count?& although not official meeting of either voting body was held, according to Leddy. However, in their statement of complaint, Imprint states that “Part F of (the Referenda) by-law states that The referendum shall be held in accordance with the appropriate ByLaws and policies of the Corporation.“’ and that “We don’t believe it is normal Federation policy to approve student referenda by individual, separate, and unwitnessed telephone conversations with those who have power to approve it.”

Imprint also contends that part E of the Referenda .by-law was not folIowed. Part Estates that ‘“The question to be decided, with the exact wording, shall be published in an issue of a recognized newspaper with widesp.read circuiation on the campus of the University of Waterloo . . . not later than six (6) days . . . before the opening of the polls.” The question of “Do you support this co-ordinated plan and corresponding student levies?” was published in the Uw Gazetfp on January 22,1992. However, imprint insists that in previous years, including last year’s Student Life Building referendum, this part of the by-law has been interpreted by the Federation of Students to mean that they should publish the exact wording of the whole of what voters will see on the ballot. Furthermore, hnprht stated in their complaint that “With a circulation of 3,500, the Gazette does not print enough papers for each voting student to read. . . . the Imprint, however, has a circulation of 13,500, and is officially recognized by the Federation of Students . . . (and is) much more likely to be read by students.” President John Leddy and CR0 Carolyn Thomas both refer to Imprint’s complaints as “trivial” and Thomson as “a pain in the ass.” In their complaint though, Imprint emphasized the ramifications of an illegal referendum: “. . . If the Federation of Students were to be found in violation of their corporate By-Laws, a student could take legal action. Whether or not the Federation of Students as a corporation would also be in violation of the Ontario Corporations Act is another question the Chief Returning Officer shouId consider when making her decision (whether or not to declare the referendum invalid) .“ Thomas, a first-year student, told Imprint that neither Leddy nor vicepresident, university affairs Lisa Brice told her of the existence of the by-law. She was operating under the impression that the only rules governing the referendum were the policies that the Student Life AdHoc Committee had devised specifically for this referendum. A decision as to the validity of the results had not been reached by Thomas as of press thte, but sht hopes to have a written answer to hpfht’s contentions in the near future. Any full-time student can lodge a w&ten complaint with the Chief Returning officer within 72 hours of the polls closing, which would be 4 pm on Saturday.

OFS dispute brings resignation by Peter Brown Intprint staff In a dispute with the Federation of Students executive over the Ontario Federation of Students, Paul Done has resigned as the chair of the Board of External Liaison. Along with this act of protest, he will chair the ‘Yes to OFS” committee in the referendum set, along with Fed executive elections for 1992-93, for February 11 and 12. Campaigning for both votes begins Sunday at midnight. Done outlined his reasons for stepping down in a letter sent to president John L.eddy and vice-president, university affairs Lisa Brice this week. “I believe that, to a great extent, you have abrogated your duties with regard to both the OFS and CFS,” Done wrote. “It seems that you were prepared to waste the fees that your stidents have paid for (OFS) services.” Done accused Leddy and Brice of attending both OFS and CFS meetings sporadically, particularly UFS general meetings in June, 1990 at Queen’s University in Kingston and last week at the University of Guelph. He also said that the two repeatedly called for the restructuring of OFS and then chose not to attend sessions that dealt with such issues. According to OFS chairperson Laurie Kingston, Leddy and Brice aitended the opening and closing plenary sessions of last week’s OFS

semi-annual general meeting on Sunday, Jan. 19 and Thurs., Jan. 23 respectively, but chose not to attend any of the sessions in between. “It’s very unfortunate;,” said Kingston, “that they did not attend any of the sessions where reaU discussion, real decision-making is taking place.” In a written response to the issues Done raised, Laddy and Brice gave a different description of events. Their attendance at the June, 1990 meeting was “comparably better than most delegates at these conferences,” they said, and could not be judged by Done since he was not there. As for last wt?ek’s meeting in Cuelph, “it was arrangtd that Waterloo would be represented by (Done) and Karin Schnarr, TIvho was unable to go for the entire week,” Leddy and &ice felt that on-campus issues, such as this week’s Student Life Centre referendum, required them to stay in Waterloo for the bulk of the conference. “Our lack of participation (in an ongoing committee on the restructuring of OFS) can be interpreted as a symbol of our frustration, . . . A form of creative protest,” they *id. Done called the impIementation of OFS and CFS campaigns on the WV campus a “failure” and questioned Leddy and B&e’s “commitment and sincerity when dealing with OFS and CFS.” The executive pair disagreed, calling the OFS campaigns that they had

Student Life Centre approved l cont’d. from page 30 Optometry had both the highest percentage of voter turnout and the strongest ‘Yes” vote. Of 1,303 eligible voters, 353, or 27.0 per cent, cast ballots. Of the 353 votes cast, 298 were ‘Yes,” 53 were “No,” and 2 were spoiled for an 84.4 per cent approval rate. The closest the proposal came to being rejected was in the Mail-Out portion of students (off-campus students on work-term) which had totals of 353 “Yes” and 247 “No” votes, for a 58.3 to 40.8 per cent margin in favour of the proposal. This poll had an overall total of 17.8 per cent students participating. Students in the arts faculty won the war of apathy, registering only 8.1 per cent voter turnout (214 of 2,611) with science a close second at 10.6 per cent (180 of 1,696). (See chart below for complete breakdown.) What the students voted “Yes” to is a three point plan to meet the nonacademic needs of UW students. Part A is a Student Directed Project Endowment Fund, consisting of $750.000. This fund will suo~lv money for the improvement of s&$

and accessibility on campus, and renovations to , various student lounge and study areas. Part I? is a new Student Centre worth $6,600,000. This centre will consist of 33,000 gross square feet of various facilities deemed necessary to UW students (meeting rooms, cafeteria, post office, health and wellness therapy clinic, lounge/study space and a small cinema). Part C is a Physical Recreation Project, costing $2,900,000. This building will be 16,000 gross square feet of activity areas, workout space and change/locker space. Wednesday night’s results are in stark contrast to the Student Life Building debacIe 14 months ago, in which another building proposal was rejected by almost the same two-toone ratio. The difference this year seems to be a perceived increase in the amount of student consultation. Last fall, the Federation, the Graduate Student Association, and the UW administration created an Ad Hoc Student Centre Committee, consisting of over 30 individuals, to research the needs and wants of students. This research produced the proposal that was accepted.

run on camlpus “extremely effective.” They also criticized the OFS for not sending them material for some campaigns on time, such as information on municipal elections in preparation for last fall’s province-wide votes. They especially stressed the effectiveness of last fall’s date rape campaign in campus residences which made use of OFS posters and pamphlets in Feds’ conjunction with the seminars. Done told Imprint that Leddy and Brice still controlled the Waterloo Federation’s voting in Guelph last week despite delegating representation to Schjarr and himself for most of the meeting. ‘They voted on candidates for the OFS executive without attending the ‘grill sessions’ where the candidates were interviewed,” said Done. “They voted at closing plenary without attending any sessions that would give them the necessary background information.” Done claims that although he attended almost all of the sessions at the meeting, his input was minimal in voting.

Over 2,500 UW students said DON’T TAX MY LOAN. That’s the number of signatures we have to date on the “don’t tax my loan” petition. This petition is part of the campaign we ran against the three per cent surcharge which the federal government added to Canada Student Loans last September. If I missed you in line at registration, you can still sign your name to the petition in the Fed Office. Well be holding a press conference at the end of February to draw attention to the issue. Secondly, have you heard of the PALS (Peer Assistance Links) Program??? This is a listening and referral service operated by UW’ students for UW students, kind of like a dial-a-Don service. Hours of opera-

tion will be Sunday to Thursday from 7 pm to 12 am. Volunteers will be trained by professionals from the UW community and wiLl receive a certificate upon completion. Anyone who’e interested can volunteer, well be holding a meeting Monday at 4:30 pm in the Fed office. If you’d like more information, please feel free to call me at 888-4042 or ext. 3780. Thirdly, nominations for Distinguished Teacher Awards will be accepted until February 7. For more information visit the Fed office and while you’re there check out the Spring Break trips to Cancun, Daytona Beach, and Cuba. AND!!! I almost forgot - we’ll be holding Housing Awareness Days on February 10 and 11. These will be information sessions on student housing, such as what to look for in a rental unit, housing safety issues, and Municipal by-laws. St.ai tuned for more information.

W.C. Update If you have been wondering if UW offers a centre dedicated to women, their experiences and concerns, YOU will find what you are looking for in the Campus Centre, room 217. The Women’s Centre has been operating on campus for ten years now, attempting to raise awareness of feminist issues both on personal and societal levels through its resource centre, organized events, and celebrations. The Women’s Centre firnctions as a resource centre, as a meeting place, and as a basis for activism. We house comprehensive resources on many issues relating to women’s experiences, including periodicals, books, vertical files, and community referrals. Resources are made available to everyone, whether for school assignments, personal interest, or help for a friend. Organized around the recognition the women suffer from both explicit and implicit sexism and oppression, the Women’s Centre offers women their own unique space - a safe and comfortable environment where women can meet, talk, relax, voice concerns, and learn more about feminism. Operating as a col1ective, appreciating the diversity of women’s experience, women in the Centre are united by a common philosophy. This philosophy (below) is central to the ideals, interests, and directions of the Women’s Centre. The collective structure ensures members an equal voice among peers, but also entails that each member take equal responsibility for the effective running of the Centre. The collective’s priorities include staffing the cenire, updating resources, organizing events, networking with other women’s organizations, celebrating recognizing and women’s differences and utilizing our collective strength to empower ourselves and other women. We encourage alI women to come out and add their voices to our weekly discussions. We regularly (forums, protests, plan events speakers, seminars, films) and discuss, in an informal and supportive

for new volunteers, new voices, energy, and ideas. Our regular ‘Ibusiness” meetings are held every Wednesday, 4:30-5 pm in the Centre and are followed by a discussion. We have an added bonus that night - a 6 pm meeting of the Pro-Choice Action Network men are welcome, We look forward to seeing you and hearing from you,

atmosphere, issues which affect us as women every day (body image, harassment, medical practices - the floor is always open). If you would like to become a member or get something off of your chest, or perhaps just look and listen, then come to our next meeting, drop by during office’hours, or give us a call (ext. 3457). We are always looking

Women’s Centre Philosophy 1, We believe that institutionalized discrimination against women exists in our society. ” 2. We advocate equal opportunity for women in all aspects of life. 3. We recognize that in order to be able to support women in fulfilling their potential it is necessary to work against discrimination. Thus we demand our right to reproductive choice, the right to live without discrimination on the basis of race, creed, colour, sexual orientation, socio-economic class, age, or physical ability.

4. We value the strength and power which can be realized through recognizing our diversities and working together collectively. 5. Our immediate objectives include: a) to foster a supp&ive environment conducive to women empowering themselves and women; and b) to increase social awareness of discrimination issues by public education and non-violent action; and c) to provide a resource centre for interested members of oui community.

Only articles clearly labelled “editorial” and unsigned represent the majority opinion of the Imprint editorial board,

John and Lisa: get well soon!

Imprint is:

Making it up as they go along A little less than a year ago, John Leddy was elected to the position of president of the University of Waterloo’s Federation of Students. Lisa B&e was elected to the position of vice-president, university affairs. Steve Millard was acclaimed to the position of vicepresident, operations and finance. Millard has taken his job very seriously: he actually rode around on the Safety Van for many nights in order to observe first-hand the usefulness of the service before making any decisions as to how to cut costs. He - rather than Chuck McMullan - has probably been largely responsible for the turn-around that Fed Hall has experienced recently. When he has made mistakes, it is our experience that he admits them without blaming the person who has pointed them

out.

John and Lisa (those fun-oriented Feds), on the other hand, do not like to admit to error or even possible errors. This was evidenced when we began questioning them about what we viewed as referendum irregularities Awww, c’mon guys, why are you doing this? What are you trying to prove? Well, good people, promoting MuchA4usic and trips to Cancun is not at all the same ball of wax a$ conducting official and binding referenda of the, student body. leddy claimed that they don’t have to follow their corporate bykws, because he believes that the referendum is being conducted by the univmity adminhrration. Isn’tthe Federation’s motto ‘Students serving Studenk”? Would it surprise you that the university has no policies or bylaws goveming referenda? Could this be because it is the Federation’s job to conduct such things? Then he claimed that the Committee had followed the spirit of the bylaws and policies. Well John, in the spirit of following good journalistic practises, we feel it necessary to bring to light our contentions.

The Federation’s bylaws - the rules by which the Federation, as an incorporated entity, is supposed to function - state that any referenda that has anything to do with the Federation is to be run in a manner that is consistent with their bylaws and policies. (It is also worth noting, and perhaps indicative of the “trivial” nature of our allegations, that an experienced staff member of the Federation visited our office this past Wednesday to borrow our copy of “The Ontario Corporations Act,” the piece of legislation that stipulates how corporations (such as Imprint and the Federation of Students) are legally to be run.) And if the referendum has nothing to do with the Federation, why did Leddy feel it necessary to make a half-assed attempt (by telephone) at obtaining a majority vote amongst Student Council Q approve the goahead of the referendum? The theory behind having a real face-toface meeting when approving silly little things like referenda is that: a) one has actual recorded minutes of a meeting and the vote; and b) that those who vote have a chance to discuss the idea as a group, rather on a one-toone basis over a telephone. The people who are extremely annoyed at us and at Imprint for pointing out this seemingly always-growing list of irregularities are acting like someone wh z been caught cheating on their exams. TT ey didn’t really mean any harm by it, and goshshucks, can’t you Imprint guys just forget about this.. . As well-intentioned as the Student Ad Hoc Committee and the Federation of Students may be (and we believe

haw to

rules. The end does not always justify the means, especii3lly when, in this case, the end will cost students millions of dollars. What’s next? How many irregularities are to be ignored? If you don’t want to follow your

bylaws, get rid of them. It shouldn’t be too hard to do this at an Annual General Meeting. . , hell, why don’t people just fax in their votes instead of troubling to meet somewhere public? It is not a trivial issue to suggest that had the Federation caused to be published a sample ballot in Imprint rather than simply allowing us to write news stories about it, more students may have been informed about the proposal. Maybe something really zany could have been done Iike having wellpublicized informational forums in the Caminstead of setting up a pus Centre, mostly-unattended table and littering it with pamphlets. Had these procedures been followed, who knows how many students would have voted, and how they would have cast their ballots? Remember that only 15.9 per cent of registered students voted - that’s even less than last year’s Fed elections! And that, folks, is why we are pressing this “tivial” issue. Had all of the normal procedures been followed, there would be Iittle room for griping. People who are serious about their jobs and the functions they were elected to perforni shouldn’t display such contempt for, ignorance of, and disregard for the rules they are supposed to abide by. Is it unreasonable to expect the the officers of the corporation to fully inform a first-year Chief Returning Officer about all bylaws and policies that might affect an election or vote? We didn’t think so. Perhaps when students go to the polls in a few weeks to elect another three students in office, they will elect a president and VPUA who

Badness and dumbness

To the editor,

You know this was a bad week for me, television wise. I missed Kids in the Hall, I~I Living C&ur, and for some reason, Saturday Night LI’ve was cancelled. But not to worry, I providentially received my laughter fix at the culmination of a barren week of the typical television blahs. It was Superbowl XXVI. Of course, I should have seen it coming, what with the week’s total news coverage of fhe event and all. Every detail was thoroughly explored with scientific precision: pounds of deli meat to be sold; beer sales in North America; liquid revenue Minneapolis can expect to receive; linebacker bravado and tedm mind games. I should have expected something hilarious from the actual Superbowl Sunday coverage which began at some ungodly premature hour. However, hindsight is 20/20. Yes, nothing in the cataclysmic countdown could have prepared me for the absolute wackiness and unreality of America’s cheesecovered Superbowl. Even the name reeks of some kind of rotten hype affair. It seems childish indeed, perhaps someday to also receive immortality in the comic books alongside of Superman, Supergirl, and Shazam! Yet, the name suits somehow. It reflects the puerile nature of all the men involved, who have shed their pubic hair to jump around in costumed bliss. “The bowl is super.” Well, there’s nothing wrong with professional sports, I suppose. They can be entertaining in a bread and circus sort of a way, They are an ancient tradition and nobler than war; if somewhat tactically similar. In this instance, they both have- equal television coverage as well.

There is a cycle of badness or dumbness in the economic life-of a country. It is well shown in Canada today. At the start of the 1700’s, Europe was crowded. A person knew if they came to the New World, worked hard, they would better themselves. This has continued for over four hundred years. Once the land has been cleared, the roads, schools, etc. are built, a recession occurs. No employment in traditional businesses. Canadians now have to make something, to sell to other countries to get the money, to pay for all the high priced workers and benefits.

The stadium is a mass of screaming people, a disturbing amount of them paying $300 a scalped seat. The field is multicoloured and pristine. Inflated football helmets, each the size of a small moon, spew forth fireworks. A majestic monoIith is also on the sideline. It is an inflated Superbowl. Inflated seems to be somewhat thematic today. (It’s not even a bowl now, is it?) About a million dollars worth of ocular equipment line the field, in harm’s way. American flags are everywhere; at one point, most of the field become a shimmering star spangled banner. Words come up on the screen: COMING UP: THE NATIONAL ANTHEM. The commercials. Exciting, exorbitant, EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE! ‘Nuff said. It’s all going very well upon return. Harry Connick sings a jazzy anthem. Grown men cry. He has his own stage on wheels and a band. Fireworks, flames, flashy females. The crowd cheers, screams. Words come up on the screen: COMING UP: THE COIN TOSS. (This is the part that breaks me up.) More commercials The next scene opens upon the grown men in suits standing in a circle. The “coin tosser”& introduced. Who will call? Heads? It IS heads! The crowd goes wild! The announcers announce that the Buffalo Bills are 7-l when they lose the coin toss. Jeez . . . The kickoff takes place. Don’t rush it, this is an evolving ritual. Who will win this gargantuan game of cosmic ramifications? WHO CARES?! I’ve had enough giggles.

Canada today is lucky. We can cut down a 100 sq. mile of trees a year to get the taxes to pay some of the costs. Ore will also help. What happens when the trees and ore run out? What does Portugal do? Does Portugal have Medicare? Is this the cycle we want to continue? Is it the best way for a country to go to the future? Is this our philosophical error, like cows in India. India had no choice. We do. If we go this way we will need lots and lots of not so smart people. How many people are enough? Do we do this for the love of humans? Is there a way to live that would be fun and fair to all? Even to other living things. J. Archer Belleville,

Editur’s note: I am surprised and disgusted that you would launch such a sacri1egiou.s attack upon a rqpected North American cultural icon with such misinfomlatian. Scalper tickets to the Superbowl cost at least $LooO.

The loving solution To the editor,

Ontario

Editor3 note: Couldn ‘r agree with you more.

Keep it.out of Imprint! To the editor, I would like to comment on “name withheld’% attacks on Fed (Hall) ‘s Chuck McMullan. One wonders what causes you to rip into him; perhaps it is a personal vengeance again& you; employ at Feh? I have had the opportunity to work with Chuck in the past. As a former BACCHUS Commissioner, I was grateful for the support of Chuck and surprised at how someone who is in the business of profiting from alcohol sales is so supportive of BACCHUS including the health and welfare of LJW students. His loyalty to policies in management and as a liaison for BACCHUS exemplifies Chuck’s involvement and concern for students. As I have never worked for Fed Hall, 1cannot comment on the goings on, but from what I have experienced, Chuck should not be shot down. If you have a problem with him, two suggestions I give to you: 1. Discuss them with him in person. 2. Keep it out of Imprint!

In response to Betty Sparks’ letter to the editor, January 24,1992: if there is a crisis in health care in K-W, it is not because doctors have stopped performing abortions in this area. Pregnancy is not a sickness, and abortion is not therapeutic: it provides health neither to the pregnant woman nor to her child-in-thewomb. It is true that there are “tragic consequences for women who do not have access to complete information” on abortion. Unfortunately, women do not get complete information from groups such as the ProChoice Action Network. Ms. Sparks denounces violence, yet abortion is an act of violence. She applauds the “freedom to love openly as we choose” but rails against pro-life people for doing precisely this. The choice should not be between a “backstreet abortion” and a “hospital abortion” (both of which put the woman’s physical and emotional health at risk), but between raising the child and giving it up for adoption (the “non-violent,“.“loving” solution). Pro-lifers are primarily caring people who want to ensure that people in our society are properly informed about abortion, especially its risks, and to provide them with alternatives. Ms. Sparks’ claim that “pro-Iifers don’t care about life at all” is contrary to fact, prejudicial, and discriminatory.

judice. It exists for the sole purpose of slanderdemoralizing, and - (ultimately) destroying the black race in America. A public demonstration by such an organization is an infringement on the right of &I1blacks to exist free from public prejudice. Can we (I say we’ meaning a country represented by a govemment) allow public slandering on any basis, especially based on race? Can the govemment sanction the use of public streets as a forum for this racism? I am not purporting to have the answer but I do suggest that it is not as clear as Sandy proposes. Sandy does make a good polit about taking action on a personal level. You have a right to express your opinion. Brake Free from your generation’s political apathy!! Mind you, I would like to ask Sandy when was the last time he attended an anti-KKK rally.

FTA+PC+GST= incompetence To the editor,

In his address to the province the leader of the provincial NDP party sought to inform the people of Ontario of the current financial standing of Canada’s foremost provincial economic power. Combined with this noble goal Bob Rae inadvertently informed us and the world of his government’s absolute inability to manage the province’s fiscal accounts. This candid view has already forced many of the world’s most important credit rating agencies to put Ontario on a “Credit Watch” in anticipation of a credit rating downgrade. This is in addition to the disgraceful budget-initiated rating slide Ontario suffered earlier causing a subsequent $26million sacrifice by taxpayers in increased interest charges for 1991. The Ontario government has an uncanny ability to make bad situations worse. But Mr. Rae explains that the government’s monetary problems are not without blame. Bob Rae uses the usual jaded acronyms FTA, GST, and PC to explain his government’s monetary incompetence. Since the free trade agreement became Canadian law in 1988, Canada has shipped 12.8 per cent more goods by value to the US while the US has shipped a meagre 5.6 per cent more goods by value to Canada. This means that Canada exports a growing amount more good to the US than it imports - a growing trade surplus. Contrary to popular belief Canada is gaining more from the FTA than the US. The GST is a national tax applied to every province and territory in the country yet we are to believe that Ontario is the sole bearer of GST misfortune. This misfortune is to be the motivation behind a preposterous $143 billion (forecast) provincial deficit that will occur unless drastic changes are made. Provinces like AIbeti (known for responsible government spending even in the recession of the early ’80s when government surpluses were budgeted by Canada’s hardest hit province) found alternative answers to economic questions and has survived the GST with another budgeted surplus. Mr. Rae, however, sees no alternatives to a deficit equal to about half the total current federal deficit. Finally there is the federal goveming Propsive Conservatives to blame. Inflation in Canada is below federal and Bank of Canada targets, thus lowering the IeveI of annual spending increases necessary to provide an equivalent.Ievel of government service. So, the prime rate of interest is at an Wand-ahalf-year low making government debt interest payments lower than they have been for almost two decades. The Tories are providing the fiscal tools by which Ontario can reduce its deficit but the NDP have an incredible proficiency at ignoring solutions in their current trial and tribulation odyssey. Bob Rae’s stated “open mind and ears to business” policy was simply an assembly of empty words in May when 3,000 business people protested an ulmcerue budget at Queen’s Park or when LOuden Owen and John McBride, two upstanding and responsible business men in Toronto, met with Rae and presented an example of a balanced

Taxes.

+cont’d. from page 79 budget. Ignoring what he obviously could not understand Rae was able to shield his “open mind and ears” from all ideas presented during that meeting. Premier Rae offers Draconian Iabour legislation coupled with fiscal mismanagement then exclaims that it is a g&d time to invest in Ontario. That doesn’t ring true to 80 per cent of business who want to leave Ontario for other provinces or in limited cases the US (as stated in a recent poll - of Ontario business owners). For Ontario business it is a good time to get out, By the time the NDP come up for election again Onpfio will be spending $6 billion in interest payments or about 40’ per cent of all spending on education in 1990. That $6 biion will not help you and I attain post-high school education but will simply vanish out of the tax payer’s pockets to create absolute nothine. TheGhildren and business of the future w-ill have to shoulder that $6 million a year as well as the forecast $75 billion that will: make up Ontario’s accumulated debt (more than half of that $75 billion will be launched in one term by the Rae administration). That is not an investment in the future - it is mortgaging the future off to recklessly and imprudently spend today.

‘The Ontario government will match dollar for dollar any capital expenditure the federal government wili make inontario to prime the economy.” It is time for the Premier to stop relying on good federal monetary manage- _ m&t to bolster his inept government. It is time to listen to business in Ontario and debut ideas and ingenuity that will help solve our serious ailments instead of adding to them and it is time to stop blaming them on others. Have you noticed, after a series of broken promises, scandal motivated resignations, and demonstrated monetary incompetence, how hard is it to find someone who actually admits to voting for the NDP. Without an NDP government in Ontario domestic and foreign capital investment by business would negate the need for huge government outlays. Put your federal GST rebate in the bank because next year your tuition will cost $125 more due to the government’s lack of regard for health and education.

The announcementlast week by Bob Rae of a drastic reduction in funding increases for universities has been met with “resigned disappointment” as would be expected. Fzducation is a sacred cow for most countries and decreases in the amount of money spent on it is rarely looked upon favorably. But hard economic times have forced pea ple to look at the structures of all piblic institutions and propose solutions to pro blems of large deficits and a system stretchec beyond its means. One proposal which ha: given many, in&ding myself, pause for thought is the idea of a private educational system.

L In addition to this obviously problem of liberty, the public school systemaiso falls prey to what is known as “Gammon’s Law”. A British tlhvsician who also researched medical cardcame up with a formula for bureaucratic systems iti which “. . . an increase in expenditure will be matched in a fall in production.” In an article for the Wall Srr4~r Jourml, Milton Friedman states thathe has “long been impressed by the operation of Gadmon’s law in the US school system.” From the trend in expenditure and taxation in Canada, it doesn’t look like we’re far behind.

What exactly is the problem with the idea 01 a private educational system? The govemment doesn’t take your money, so you have it to decide where you and. eventually your children, go. In addition to this freedom, these schools must be responsitie to what people want. If the level of education that the school is providing is below what people want then the parents have the opportunity to pull their kids from the school. The school can then either change or shut down. If the opposite is true and a good school is offering a level of education that lots of people want, then that school’s enrollment and consequentlv their “funding” will increase. 1 ’

On that new (now old) jingoism of political correctness. Rick Salutin in Saturday Night (Dec/Sl) : ‘The scariest part of all is who you find yourself agreeing or disagreeing with - for instance, when the well-meaning advisors to York University on the status of women, and race and ethnic relations, write, in the stye of an encyclical White males cannot be victims of racism or sex&m. Discximtition results from systematic oppression.’ Sorry, but racism and sexism are more flexib1e than that, which is what makes them hard to eradicate. ‘I Oppression can be practised by victims; in fact, victims are powerfully motivated to victimize others in turn - if they can get away with it. On the other hand, I reluctantly nod my head to brrie Goldstein, in the odious (and often racist and sexist) Toronto Sun, when he says, ‘Political correctness isn’t just good liberal intentions run amok. . . . it is racism and, for that matter, sexism. . , . Accept that only blacks can teach African h,istory or that only men can be sexist and you are not very far from accepting that blacks have rhythm, that women make lousy drivers, and that Jews are good with money.’ Ouch.

A Rae of hope by Walter wa#jJileithner

lmprimtaff~clr-op Some time ago, Tuesday January 21 to be exact, Ontario Premier Bob Rae took to the airwaves to tell us this province’s economy is “beinghammered.” Even though this was not necessarily original observation, it did show Rae is committed to teKng it like it is: instead of hiding in a cozy office, he puthis insecurity and indecision in full view. Not many would, or have, commended recent Ontario NDP policies. A large deficit and political backpedalling on campaign promises have seriously hurt Rae’s credibility. However, maybe we should remember Rae is not to blame for our current difficulties. The federal government should share the blame. Free trade and the GST are just two policies which are slowing chances at economic recovery. Because we are still in the midst of drastic economic restructuring brought on by free trade, unemployment is up and tax revenues are down; the GST has slowly squeezed the spirit to spend ou of most

Ontario shoppers. These programs have just begun and may, just may, help us in the long run. Whether or not that develops, Canada is seriously suffering today. So, what is Bob Rae to do? Surely, his latest constitutional grumblings will not endear him to a Federal Government

from which

he has

requested billions of dollars. As a result, he can only work with the resou~es at hand. And this is where most critics have a pr* bIem: they feel Rae has not been decisive. Last budget, the recession was his target This year, he seems set on preventing the already large deficit from getting any larger. Both may be noble pursuits, but, as has been noted in the press, they contradict one another. Why does the Premier have such a difficult time deciding what he wants to do? Perhaps, it is our fault. Political leaders are supposed to reflect the ideas held by the populace. In Ontario, $5 billion of cross border shopping tells Rae we resent any new taxes - federal or provincial A dying retail industry shows we would rather not open our wallets and purses in Ontario. However, any attempts to reduce government expenditure by cutting prw grams or limiting spending increases elicits a squeal of protest from those dependent on government aid. So, people cry out whether government spends and has a high deficit, or cuts back and concentrates on fiscal responsibility. Obviously, our political system is working quite welL Our confusion about the economy and what shouid be done has become the government’s confusion. Perhaps, by being indecisive, Bob Rae is doing no more, or less, than we are allowing him.

Pat Forte

by Dave ThrMns4m Imprint staff

by Scott Carson

Do you feel that you’re not getting what you paid for at university? So does Dave Martin. During his four years in the Electrical Engineering program, he has been a comanager of Poet’s, chaired last year’s engineering orientation, a teaching assistant for first-year students, a director-at-large for the Engineering Society, and has participated in the Campus Recreation Advisory Council. He is currently serving his fourth term as a Don and has been sitting on the Undergraduate Senate Council since April of last year. He believes that particip&ion in these activities has familiarized him with the university administration and the Federation of Students, and their services. The funding of our education system and the many different issues that relate to it are a primary concern for Martin: “If we’re going to spend all this money on education, I want to

make sure students

are getting their money’s

worth.” He favours a system advocated by OFS, CFS, and the not-yet-recognized OUSFA, whereby students are required to payback loansat a rate relative to their income once they graduate. He cites Waterloo’s co-op system as one example of students not getting service for their money. Students’ chronic complaints about the system are indicative of a problem, he says, and would like to see more coordinator evaluation. With regards to the OFS debate, he feels

that “we need representation at the provincial level” and should stay in it due to the restructuring opportunities. Since OFS has recently begun an examination of possible options for restructuring he thinks we’d be missing a chance to have a say in improving the organization if we dropped out now. As for the Student Life Centre, he stated that the students have clearly shown support for some kind of a building based upon the surveys.

The Student Life Centre proposal is something students of Waterloo should be more informed about. Forte would like to see the proposal for the new building go through because of the added recreation space and activity areas that would be available to the students.

In her four years at Waterloo, Szabo has participated in many different volunteer activities such as Campus Recreation, the Federation’s Legal Resource Centre, Orientation, and held the positions of President of the North Quad Council and Secretary for the Arts Student Union (ASU). She cites her experience with these organizations as btiging her into contact with a large number of students with diverse interests.

A candidate for president of the Federation of Students, Pat Forte is a fourth-year honors psychology student with lots of energy. She has been residence don for two years and is currently serving as head don of Village Two. Her experience lies in getting to know what students are concerned with and how to voice the&e concerns in administrative arenas. Forte has a wide range of experience in university affairs, everything from involvement with the Alcohol Use and Education Committee to frosh orientation duties. This, along with working in the Fed office and participating in intramural sports, helps Pat keep in touch with various student groups. Continuity is an important theme to Pat: continuation of the work started .by the current Federation of Students executive and the promotion of programs aimed at improving students’ financia1 and social university life. The Feds should be actively involved with such important tasks as finding new employers for co-op and setting policies for Federation-operated businesses. Forte believes that the Ontario Federation of Students is a group worth while being a pati of.

She would seek lights along the path between Village One and Two and along Westmount Rd. between the church colleges and Columbia St. Crosswalks on Phillip St. and Columbia St. would also help safety. On the issue of the Ontario Federation of Students, Nevin would like to give the organization a chance. She sees problems with its politics and structure, but says that it is constantly evolving and that the only way to change these thinp;s is to be within the organization.

As a metiber of the Student Ad Hoc Committee, she is pleased with the Committee’s results: the Student Life Centre proposal. She stressed however that student input must continue in the planning process, if the proposal is approved by students. She would seek a student board that would have at least 75 per cent student representation. She also feels that continuity from this year’s executive to the next is necessary and Says says that she is familiar with the current executive’s ideas and identify with them.

Harish Pawagi

Hoi Leung by Peter Brown Imprint etaff

by Peter Brown Imprint staff Harish Paw@ thinks that being president of the second-largest faculty society on campus, MathSoc, has given him the planning, and administrative skills organization, necessary to be president of the Federation of Students. He has experience with the Federation too: as a commissioner in the Board of Academic Affairs. “I’ve know a lot about problems facing students,” Pawagi says. In the BAA, he had to take an ombudsperson’s role in resolving conflicts between students and professors. Waterloo’s membership in the Ontario Federation of Students is an important issue to Pawagi, who thinks that the OFS is not an effective lobby group for student issues. He feels that lobby groups are necessary for students’ needs to be met. He wants to try to change the platforms of OFS and its national counterpart, the Canadian Federation of Students, and does not rule out doing so from outside both organizations. “If OFS is not serving UW students’ interests, then we should pull out,” he says. Safety is another important issue. Pawagi would expand existing walk-home programs for women, either through volunteers or hirees, to Sunnidale in north Waterloo and the Columbia Street Townhouses. Whether within OFS or not, Pawagi wants the Waterloo federation to increase interacother university student tion with governments as much as possible, especially on a leisurely or informal level.

He calls the Student Lie Centre proposal “good work” on the part of the Student Ad Hoc Committee and described the three stages as “legitimate uses of student funds.” He points out that students must be plannipg for five or ten years down the road and anticipate the need to accommodate expansion of the student body.

Vice-President,UniversityAflairs

He is ‘all for” the Student Life Centre proposal that was voted on this week because it fills all of the needs that students indicated on surveys. Also, he applauds the strutire of the Ad Hoc Committee that produced the proposal, saying that everyone has representation on it.

Brent /McDermott by Peter Brown Imprint staff

by Jeff Warner Imprint staff “If there have been problems with accessibility in the past, that will change. One of my kicks’ is listening to people’s problems,” says Sue Crack. .Running for the position of Vice-President, University Affairs, the fourthyear Sociology student wanted to make cteear that students should feel free to talk to her at any time. As a Don and at the bndlord & Tenant Office, Crack dealt with a variety of student problems and developed a good idea of what students want and need. Her work with the semi-formal and the Sunbeam Resident Development Centre provided her with experience in community relations and her involvement at the PAC gave her a familiarity with its operation. Crack feels that one of the biggest issues facing students today is funding. As the economy is not improving, she feels that students have to turn inward for answers, and that means evaluating how efficiently the money already available is being spent. She feels that “the structure is there,“ but that new, fresh, ideas must be brought in to keep it all accountable. She is in favour of the new Student Life Centre proposal. A member of the Ad Hoc Committee, she finds that it is a highly researched proposal. If it fails, she says, it will be because the question has been poorly phrased, and that would be a loss to the students of Waterloo. Pulling out of the Ontario Federation of Students would also be a mistake, according *

to Sue. While there have been problems in the past with the OFS’ ability to fairly represent Waterloo’s interests, she feels that it is too powerful an organization to simply abandon, especially when it is in the process of changing itself. What she does support is forming ties to other “like-minded” universities within the OFS to force it to listen to the needs of Waterloo students.

He is currently a vice-president of the Math Society and speaker of the MathSoc Council. He has been a class representative since 1989 and has volunteered for frosh orientation He also works part-time for a manufacturing company in accounting. McDermott is concerned about the visibility of Federation services, saying that there are many services that students are unaware of. “Instead of fir&o’s, students should be using the Graphix Factory,” he says, and he thinks that knowing that the service is there is the key. The record store is another example. He stresses accountability to students, both financial and operational, and suggests the publishing in Imprint of monthly reports of the financial activities and expenditures of the Federation. McDermott feels that the Feds must exert control on deficit spending. and only use it sparingly. He cited the purchase last year of a laser light system for Fed Hall as a good example of deficit spending. His experience with recycling at MathSoc leads him to think that the campus needs more depots. “At MathSoc, we are constantly at capacity. Recycling bins are only on the third floor - they should be everywhere.”

He says that the Ontario Federation of Students is a good idea in principle because students need to unite for a bigger voice. But politirr within the OFS and ik zero tuition fee policy make ik effectiveness questionable, he believes. He supports the Student L3e Centre proposal, especially in light of Seagram Stadium being sold to WLSJ. He says that this should make the Campus Centre a true student centre as well.

by Bill Bunn A group of neighbors were huddled by the back wall of Jackie Purdle’s house. The steam of excited conversation rose into the crisp January air, illumined by bright sunlight over the shadowed forms of the group. The yard opened into the back yards of several other houses. They were discvssing the apparently ordinary circumstances surrounding the discovery of Ms. Purdle’s body. It was to this group of neighbors that Detective Cozens stepped between to discover some of the facts. “HelIo folks. My name is Margret Cozens. This is my partner, DaveRighting. We’d like to talk to anyone who knew Ms. Purdle.” The neighbors began jabbering excitedly.

Cracks in the, lUstice System by John Rainford specialtcJrmprirlt

cies between the conduct of the Marshail trial and conviction and the principles of justice supposedly present in Canadian society.

This week, GNA tests will be introduced to the David Mi&ard hearings. If these tests return as negative, it could be the deciding factor in ordering a new trial for Mr. Milgaard. Milgaard was convicted in 1969 of the brutal sex-slaying of nursing assistant Gail Miller. David Milgaard’s saga has been closely followed by the Canadian media as questionable aspects of the case have been gradually brought to light. The thought of wrongful conviction is a very frightening one for Canadians as we associate such travesties of justice with countries very different from our Qwn. The Milgaard case aided ,by the heavy media coverage produces questions in the minds of many Canadians. How many inn* cent men and women have been wrongly locked away? Are police investigations conducttid properly? How could the questions surrounding this case remain silent for 20 years? Cases such as Miigaard’s, like that of Donald Marshall, spark strong emotions and finger pointing. The search for blame often will result in inquiries and commissions, as may well be the result of the Milgaard affair, The search for blame often looks to individuals who abuse their power or improperly perform their duty. However examination must go further as those individuals only operate within a system, There were 2.6 million criminal code nontraffic offences reported by police in Canada in 1990. Of these offences 328,000 were considered to be violent. To apprehend individuals involved in the ever increasing number of offences is a nation wide police force of over 56,000. The court system has over 12,000 staff to provide due process of the law that the police enforce.

The criminal justice system is often thought of as a huge infallible machine that demands our complete trust and reverence. Closer consideration of the workings of the system reveal several situations where fault could occur. Components of the “system” may possibly facilitate errors, or do not facilitate the correction of errors.

For example it would be impossible to assume that police officers, like all of us, have no biis or prejudice. David Milgaard was not a clean-cut kid fresh from prep school, he was long-haired drifter. He was a symbol of some-, thing looked down upon by much of the estabIishment of the late ’60s. A suspect may be accused more readily if those accusing are composed of a certain social group. Another example is that of plea bargaining. Plea bargaining is considered necessary with the modern day court congestion and overload. However, the question surfaces as to what principles may be sacrificed in the name of expediency? A further serious problem of our justice system is the pressure that outside forces may put upon it which may result in the compromises of its principles. The call of the public for immediate results of investigations, or media publicity in sensitive political areas may act as more than just societal feedback. The external forces may be motivated by highly emotional issues or political concerns which could cloud the system’s vision and warp its actions. Our criminal justice system (common and civil law traditions) has evolved over centuries, to supposedly represent the views and attitudes of Canadian society. The key point to remember is that it is

it would be impossible to assumethat police u&ers haveno prejudices. 0

Considering the volume of offences and offenders dealt with in Canada, gross errorS of justice as with Milgaard’s case appear less significant The Milgaard case can be rationalized down to a percentage thus making his 22-year misery ‘bearable” in the minds of Canadians. Favourable statistics however would have a hard time comforting the family and friends of Tema Conter who was murdered in 19813 at the age of 25. The killer was Melvin Glenn Stanton age 32 who was on, parole living at Montgomery Centre, a Toronto half-way house.

Stanton

was a convicted

“it’s not perfect but it5 the bestwe’vegot”

rapist

who

had just prior to his release terrorized another convict with a butcher knife. His release was an unnecessary risk to the community, apparently as a result of Stanton falling through the cracks of the penal system.

The “cracks of the justice system” were also responsible for the Milgaard case which is not unlike that of Donald Marshall. Marshall spent 11 years in prison for the murder of a chiIdhood acquaintance. The man eventually exposed as the real killer was brought to the attention of the authorities only 10 days after Marshall’s conviction. The RCMP performed

a brief investigation but decided that no question as to the guilt of Marshall existed. The Marshall Inquiry of 1987, se* up tv diacover how such a blatant injustice could stand for I1 years, eventually found that the case had included testimony given under pressure from police, and bias against the Mic Mac Indians. The Inquiry found several discrepan-

still evolving. The saying “it’s not perfect but is the best we’ve got” is true but the Milgaard, Marshall and Conter tragedies point to the need for our attempts to continue to try and improve all aspects of the system. This feeling was related by Donald Marshall’s Lawyer Clayton Ruby defending the enormous cost of the Marshall Inquiry. Ruby said that discovering how rights of one person were so poorly served by the justice system will help to protect the rights of all Canadians. The finger pointing and accusations that will accompany the eventual verdict m the Milgaard case may exploit public emotion. At the same time however tlhey may serve to improve our system in the hope that the percentage of offenders who do fall through the cracks will be Iessened.

Gryphs halt, Warriors advance by CD Coulas Imprint sportI

Right from the opening face-off, one could see that not much had for Guelph in their style from last year’s playoffs against our smaller Warrior team. The Gryphons out-muscled, over-powerd, and outgooned the Warriors, and with the help of the blind eye of the referee, scored two early goals. However, it also became apparent that the Gryphons have added one tting to their style of play, and that is a little talent. The two goals were pretty ones, after they out-muscled the Warriors for the puck, they both ended with good hustle and nice passing plays.

changed

Thursday,

January 23 and a bus full Warrior fans Saw the Warriors’ 12”game winning streak come to an end at the hands of the then-second-place Guelph Gryphens with a loss in Guelph 6-3. It’s a fact that sooner or later, every winning streak in every sport will come to an end, but it is how the team reacts after having a streak broken that shows the true character of the team. In the 1979-80 season, the Philadelphia Flyers went a record 35 NHL games without a defeat, but after the loss that broke the streak, they then proceeded to lose three more games before their next victory. Now I’m not saying that the Philadelphia Flyers were a team without character, but it is a tribute to the Warriors to see that after a disheartening loss to Gueiph, the Waniors would then come back on

of exuberant

capitalized by scoring two powerplay goals when the Warriors had two two-man advantages. The second period started much like the first, with the Gryphons outplaying the Warriors and capitalizing with two goals. Again, the Warriors came back strong, this time without the help of the power-play, but could g&y manage one goal by Jamie Hartnett, against a hot Gryphon goalie. In the third, the Gryphons scored two more to ice the victory despite the Warriors out-shooting the

Sunday to hand out a 10-3 thrashing to the Brock Badgers. Before the Warriors even played the Gryphons on Thursday, it was becoming more and more apparent that Guelph was going to be the Warriors’ number-one challenger for the OUAA West. Guelph showed f&l over Vconcordia 10-2 ana RMC 14-3 and beat nationally-ranked Wiid Laurier 2-1. And of course, Guelph made up another third of Waterloo’s loss total last Nov 1 when they beat the Warriors at Columbia Icefields. But that was early in the season

when the Warriors were still trying to find the winning touch. Unfortunately, the Gryphons, like the Warriors, are a much improved team as seen in their recent surge in the standings. Still, head coach Don McKee was confident going into the

Gryphons. game that the experience gained in playing them earlier and the Warriors’extensive knowledge of the team iiwm last year’s playoffs, where the Warriors beat the Gryphs two games to one, would benefit the team enough to get them the victory.

’

Not many people I talked to at the beghning of the year expected the Warriors to do as well as they have, and despite the loss, the team still holds a six-point lead on the Gryphons in the toughest division in the CIAU.

The Warriors had a couple of days to get over the loss, and were back in action against the 4-9-l Brock Badgers on Sunday in the friendly confines of the Columbia Icefields. Without missing a beat, the Warriors played like they had a Xl-game winning streak on the line, and devoured the lowly Badgers. James Organ got the call to start the game, and only let three shots by him. The Warriors offence worked over-. time, and in the ended were rewarded with 10 goals. Ace penalty-killer Dave Lorentz had a four-point afternoon, including two assists on Darren Snyder’s two short-handed goals, and one on Snyder’s power-play goal. He also scored one himself in the third with all sides full strength. Steve Richard also had a strong game points wise with three (one goal and

two assists). I With the l-l week for the Warriors, the Laurier Golden Hawks, with victories over Brock 5-4 and York 3-2, are now standing only six points behind the Warriors in second place in the OUAA West with one game in hand (The Gryphons only played the one game last week and lost position although they have a game in hand on the Golden Hawks and two on the Warriors). The Warriors and Hawks played the first game of a home-and-home series last night at Waterloo Arena. They are back at the Icefields on Sunday, Feb. 2, Look for the full report on both games in next week’s Imprint. See you at the Icefields! Bring the noise!

Athenas streak to .500 Record breaking by CD Codas

sports

Second-year head coach Denise Digrrard has got her Athena hoopsters on a roll. After losing their first four games to strong opponents, the Athenas proceeded to find their winning ways by squeezing out a win against the Brock Badgers and then doing away with the Wilfrid Lauder Lady Golden Hawks. After the Laker victory, a fourth-year Athena commented to the coach that this was the first time in this players tenure with the team that they had actually won two games in a row. Well, the Athenas extended their amazing streak to four on Wednesday night, with a U-41 thrashing of the OWIAA West division cellardwellers the Windsor Lancers. This

victory followed an even more convincing 68-42 win against a very formidable opponent in the Guelph Gryphons. The big story against Guelph was defence. Standing in against a 6’4” post player for the Gryphons (the tallest player for the Athenas is 6’0”), the Athena defence stood tall against their lengthy opponent and held her to 6 points. This was just one aspect of an all-around solid defensive effort against for the the Athenas. On offence, the Athenas were equally as efficient. After getting an early lead, the Athenas continued to work the inside, causing the panicking Gryphon players to take far too many personals. All told, the Athenas had a total of 31 freethrows, scoring on 22 of them, versus three freethrow points on only 10 attempts for the

Gryphons. Brenda Kraemer was the largest benefactor of the Guelph fouls, sinking 10 of her 11 attempts, on her way to a game-high 16 points. Susan Kruis (14 points), Leah Ann Erickson (13 points), and Tina Murray (14 points) rounded out the Athena high scorers. The enthusiasm continued to be high as the Windsor Lancers came to the PAC on Wednesday. Teams have been beating up on Windsor all year, and the Athenas were ready to do the same. Much of the story for the Gryphon game held true for the Athenas against the Lancers. The solid defence and an efficient offence were present throUghout the entire affair. This, along with poor Lancer shooting, helped the Athenas gather a lead early, and expand on it right up to the last buzzer to win 61-

41. The Athenas showed a great amount of depth on the team, with every player who played scoring a minimum of four points, and the highest single scorer only counting ten. With this spread-out offence, the Lancers could not focus on stopping only one or two of the AthenasThe Athena victory against the Lancers has put the Athenas at the .500 mark for the first time in a long time this far into the season and equalled their win total in the last two seasons,

The Warrior and Athena swimming teams were enjoying a meal at Angie’s Kitchen after atery successful weekend of meets at Wilfrid Iaurier University. The food was going down very well as all members of both teams swam well in this tune u meet for the OUAA and OWIAA cl! ampionships. The Athenas showed their fantastic depth by placing first and second in the last event of the meet, the 200 freestyle relay. They &o came second and third in the 200 medley relay at the beginning of Saturday’s session hading the victory parade for the women was super sophomore Christie Se& winning the 200 butterfly in a close-to-CIAU-qualifying time. Selig is presently on work term which hampers her training and keeps her away from the rest of the team; this makes her accomplishments this year so much more amazing. Joining Selig was Kim Boucher, who continued her streak by winning the 200 freestyle, to add to her 400 freestyle win the previous weekend. Trish Felszegi avenged her second place finishes from last weekend by pulling off the backstroke double, winning

assaults which came within 8/1OOths of a second e record. The Warriors then came back in the last event of the day, tie 200 free relay to place first an!, third. Gunther had a very good meet two weekends ago to garner the athlete of the week award.

Most of the Warriors were swimming in off events in this second last tune up meet for the OUAA finals. Some men who still placed in the top three were Mark Y ip in the 50 and 100 sprint frees, Jason Krupp in the 200 condition and every team member is swimming very fast.

The second game started out in typical fashion, Waterloo taking a small lead andi Lakehead coming back In this game Lakehead were back to their hitting ways and it seemed that only when Waterloo got down 7-13 that they started playing with some intensity. After VanVliet subbed back in, the Athenas got the score to 10-13. Lakehead got the serve back and got another point to gd 14-10, but had to wait until their third game service before finishing the job, 15-31. Game three was close for a while, but not a long while as Lakehead decided it was time to go home. Waterloo could not stop the Iakehead hitting and had a hard time setting up their own offense, losing the game 15-7 and the match 3-O. Overall, the two teams matched up well as shown by the closeness of the scores, but unfortunately Lakehead was able to put down the hits when neded, and’they had quite good servers, maybe there’s not much else to do in Thunder Bay. With their 4-6 record, every game is pretty well a must win for the Athenas from now on if they hope to enter post-season play.

Lakehead earned serve and blitzed back, putting over six straight serves to win the game 15-9. Waterloo got down early in the third game, spotting Lakehead five points, causing coach Deglau to substitute Robin McKay in for Michelle Vanvliet. The score seesawed until it was tied at 11. Lakehead jumped out in frofit, 14-11 with a hit and two blocks leaving theni only one point away from the match. But Waterloo was not done yet, getting back serve on a missed Lakehead hit and getting a point on another one. Lakehead got their second match serve on a block but missed the serve, their third on a tip but this time Nicky Campbell put down a hit. Waterloo closed within one point, but missed a spike to lose the game. In the opening game of the Saturday match, Waterloo came out skong and the Lady Nor’Westers wem’t hitting up to their standards of the game before. Thus Waterloo managed to get up 7-4, but Lakehead came back to tie it up at nine. With some good defence the Athenas had a run to stand only three points from victory at 12-9.

Warriors welcome Windsor by Paul Done Imprint staff

FOK a team coming off consecutive road losses against nationally-ranked opponents, there’s no sight more comforting than the blue-and-gold of the Windsor Lancers. The basketball Warriors, still smarting from losses to Guelph and Brock, took time to lay a 95-73 beating on the perenniallydoomed Lancers before a crowd of 1,000 on Wednesday night at the PAC. Though Waterloo didn’t play anynear their best ball, the undersized, erratically-shooting lancers were lost from the start. With a balanced scoring attack which saw five different players hit for double figures, the Warriors victory was never seriously in ddubt. They established an early five-point cushion, with the score standing at 20-15 with ten minutes gone. where

Windsor then hit a woeful drought, which saw them go over five minutes without scoring a point. During this period, the Warriors poured in 15 straight po&s,.to exted their lead to 35-l 5, with four minutes to play in the half. Windsor got a little closer before half - wheti the Mike Moser Awards were given out (see story page 19) but not much closer: the Warriors led 46-29 at the break. The Warriors didn’t play as well during the second half, and continually broke down on defence, allowing a much smaller team to get easy buckets inside. The Warriors’ lead dropped into single digits a COUpie of times, but each time they would find a little extra gas and build it to 15 or so once again. Once again, Waterloo was plagued by some atrocious play-calling, and took a couple of technical fouls. One such bad call resulted in an apoplectic coach Don McCrae being restrained by assistant coach Tom Kieswetter and guard Mike Duarte. Leading the Warriors on the scoresheet was Alex Urosevic, who hit for his OUAA West leagueleading game-average of 22 points, Bruise Duarte turned in another excellent effort scoring 18 points and grabbing five rebounds, Sean VanKoughnett hit for 14, while Pat Telford and Dave Lynch hit for 10 each. Well, I guess we’ll have to mention a few words about last Saturday’s debacle in St. Catharines which saw the Warriors leap out of the gate to grab a 9-O lead, before playing one of the worst 15 minutes of basketball that I’ve ever seen. After the quick start, the Warriors could muster only 13 points for the rest of the half. The Badgers, preying upon the Warriors’ turnovers and terrible offensive execution, outscored Waterloo by 26 after the Warriors’ burst, and led 3% 22 at the half. Things didn’t get much prettier in the second - after shaving the margin down to about 10, the warriors stumbled again. The explosive Badgers pushed the margin to 60-36, effectively ending this game long before the buzzer sounded. A late Warrior surge left the final score 79-64. Alex Urosevic

topped all Warrior scorers with 19. This week sees Waterloo turn into the Road Warriors again, as they play a pair outside the friendly confines of the PAC. Tomorrow (Saturday) at 2 pm, they11 trave1 to Hamilton to try and halt their road losing streak at 2 against the bruising McMaster Marauders. On Wednesday at 8 pm, the Warriors will stroll down University Avenue to lay another beating on the hapless Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks. Get out and make some noise.

Since the last competition in November, 1991, the Athena figure skating team has been training very hard at Columbia lcefields. Last Friday, the team travelled to Kingston to participate in the Queens’ invitational Competition. With the strengthening addition of skaters Michelle Rho, Carolyn Moss, and Theresa Marwood, the team was looking forward to this second meet of the season. Events began at 830 am and ended at 5:30 pm. Each skater put forth a tremendous effort in her event and the audience was treated to a show of fine skating.

Maybe it was fatigue from playing three tournaments in the last four weekends. Maybe it was the fact that thev had the worst schedule of all tea&s in the event. Whatever the case, the Black Plague volleyball Warriors just plain stunk at the M&laster Invitational Tournament this past weekend. Out of six teams, Waterloo finished in fourth place, losing to the hosts in the bronze medal match in straight sets 15-2,15-10,15-13. Granted the three teams that finished higher (Winnipeg. Montreal, and McMaster are all in the national rankings, the Warriors were not the powerful challengers that they prea viously were at the York Excalibur and Winnipeg Invitational tournaments just two weeks ago. The Plaguesters lost four out of their five matches in the three-day event. In round robin play; they lost to Winnipeg 3-O (E-4,17-15,15-10) and Montreal 3-O (15-6, 15-7, 15-7)

Steve and Scott Smith (now graduated) helped win Waterloo’s second consecutive bronze medal at the national championships in Lava1 last March. Defensively, Heynen mustered 26 digs and 6 recoveries. Vigorous quick hitter William Zabjek led the team in stuff blocks (15) and digs (27) and registered a total of 37 points. Fifth-year middle Dave Balodis and second-year setter Shawn Smith each scored 31 points, while sophomore power Rene Holt took a break from his work term to collect 29. The only thing worse than Waterloo’s record in the tourney was the loss of third-year power hitter Jeff Stover. Scrambling to hit an off-target set around the antenna, he felI into the post and twisted his knee. But he should not miss any action, as the Warriors had their bye week in league play this past week The bye results from an odd number of teams (seven) in the OUAA West. The team returns to action this coming week with back-to-back home stands Wednesday night against Laurier and Friday night against Windsor. Both matches begin at 8 pm.

before capturing their only win with a three game sweep of Regina 15-7,1513, and 15-7. UW was relegated to the bronze medal game after a 3-O loss to Montreal in the semi-finals 15-8,1511, 15-5. On the bright side, team captain Ian Heynen played the tournament of his career. From his limitless, palmsweating attack, to his suicide,.skinpeeling defence, the fourth-year offside hitter was a force, a one-man wrecking crew. If you were around to see him as a lanky and timid rookie, you wouldn’t think that four years later he would be such an intense leader. Playing in all of Waterloo’s 15 games in their entirety, Heynen amassed 93 points on 77 kills, eight service aces, and eight stuff blocks for a 4.2 points-per-game average. He was named Player of the Match in Waterloo’s sweep of Regina. In that match, Heynen scored five aces (three consecutively), 20 kills, and 3 stuffs totalling 28 points, for a phenomenal 9.3 points per game average. This was the first time any Uw player had such a prolific outing since

forced a replay with West Ham United, and Wrexham, a fourthdivision perennial from Wales, who faced London’s mighty gunners, Arsenal.

Chief

MUENCHEN - The English FA. Cup is probably the most followed championship in Europe, as the final goes continent-(and world-)wide. It then comes as no surprise when a club buried far in the lower divisions or even in amateur leagues forces match replays or even beats clubs with far greater operating budgets and headline players. A big FA win can often give lower clubs confidence, who will then find themselves advancing up the ladder at an impressive pace. Wimbledon is a good example of this, and other clubs who have had wonderful FA runs as third and fourth division sides include Cambridge United and Middlesboro, two clubs who may find themselves in whatever will exist for The Football League top flight. Two clubs caught the fascination of the nation a few weeks ago: Famborough, an amateur club who

Famborough’s tiny ground was deemed by the constabulary as unsuitable for hosting a match featuring supporters from a less than savoury part of London. The game was unfolding as it should with West Ham one up coming home. Defensive soccer seemed to be in order, as Farnborough showed great spirit, but were not able to finish against a much pricier side. Late pressure produced a well-earned penalty, which was taken with flair by the amateur side. The Hammers’ supporters were speechless, but not for long, as they stormed the pitch at the end of the match shouting “Shame!” and ‘Where’s the money gone?” In a move for the fans, Wrexham elected to play at their ground,

instead of opting to play at the much larger HighbuTt thereby guaranteeing a larger amount of money. Details of the match were probably reported on TSN’s Soccer Saturday, so a rehash of match details are not necessary. What should be appreciated, though, is that Arsenal had a one-goal lead with less than ten minutes to go and didn’t lock the door. Wrexham saw the crack of light in the outside hallway, and equalized in the 82nd minute. The door opened a little more with Arsenal flustered and collecting two bookings, one on a foul and the other for time wasting. Two minutes later, Wrexham stormed through with their striker Watkin leaving the defense flat, tucking the winner away. This has been the biggest upset of the tournament so far, but one should keep in mind that Wrexham is a Welsh club, which has won the Welsh Cup, thereby guaranteeing itself more UEFA play lately than ArsenalThis has meant a lot, as Wrexham’s manager Bryan Flynn was recently quoted in The Sunday Times, sayins, “‘T’he FA Cup is very lucrative, which is important to us.. . but we have to be realistic. We know we cannot reach Wembley - but we can get into Europe.” Next week: The Rugby Union Five Nations Championship Preview 10 Second Ticker: - England is also having its way for a change in cricket, as the National 11 is touring New Zealand, tining up for next month’s World Cup.

Great Green Contest Answers Reading

W6ek The Great Green Contest closed at 4:00 pmm.on Friday, January 24,1992, with a last day rush of entrants, hoping to win the $500.00 grand prize, or one of fifty second prizes. “The contest was intended to be challenging,” says Mark Murdoch, Director of Food Services. “Hopefully this will cause members of the University community to consider the questions and answers carefully,” he added. Many people had called the Food Service offices in search of answers, all to no avail. “A little bit of work may encourage people to think about the impact they have on the environment,” Murdoch said.

Stra nge Days indeed cient order, the band kept the audience dancing and moving for the whole set. Lead Guitarist Paul Martin looked and sounded somewhat like a (very) young Eric Clapton on stage (I’d hate to stick anyone with such an impossible comparison but that was the impression I got _ . . honest). Perhaps deferring to the stage presence of Lyon, he held in the background and let his guitar and leads speak for him. One might think that a power lead guitarist would clash with the driving rhythm of an acoustic lead, but this is not the case. Strange Days manage to mesh the two and the result is quite unexpected. Another unexpected highlight of the evening was the harmonica work of former band member Johnny Schwirtlich. Invited on stage for three or four tunes, he very nearly stole the show. Obviously, having two front men is not conducive to any band, but one would hope that his cameos with the band will continue on in the future.

Strange Days The %umbsh&er Friday,

Jan. 24

by Iain Andemm special to Imprint I’ll start this off by saying that anyone who has ever seen the local band Strange Days before should not bother with this review: there is not much I can say that you won’t already have had the pleasure of experiencing first hand at one of their high energy concerts. Instead, thb review is for Strange Day virgins (like myself until Friday night at the Bombshelter) and a warning for anyone interested in a blend of hard acoustic rock and Hendrix-style guitar blasting: this band is a must-see. See them now in venues like the Bombshelter, because they won’t be playing in these cozy little places for long. When I first arrived at the ‘Shelter, I started asking around about the band to see what I was in for, and the first thing that stuck out was virtually everyone I talked to was somehow connected with the bass player. Stories like “I went to high school with the bass player” or “my brother has a friend whose girlfriend is the sister of the bass player”or “my roommate dated the bass player’sdentist’~ . ;. all of this led to an Oliver Stone conspiracy paranoia: this is too many people for one single bass player to know - there must be multiple bass players. This theory was crushed however, when I noted just one bass player on stage, but alas, I knew there would be other bands, other conspiracies . . . I had also heard the inevitable comparisons of the band to the Tragically Hip, and I firmly believe that Strange Days caught a bad break here. For if the Hip had appeared on the scene after Strange Days, they would be the ones faced with the expectations and comparisons. As it stands though, Strange Days are more than strong enough to stand on their own and

Opening for Strange Days was Toronto band Bag of Hammers. With gigs behind them such as opening for Sarah McLachlan, Bag of Hammers took the stage with confidence and zeal, but unfortunately did not seem to grab the crowd. As is the hazard inherent in opening, the band could not seem to capture the audience’s attention, who were there primarily to see the marquee act. Comprised of lead acoustic strumming bassist, funky keyboards, back up singer/ tambourine smasher, and drums, the band performed a variety of origina; tunes, trying tc work the crowd. The energy they put into performing was impressive and once some hard road work gets put behind them, doors might begin to open for them. Being a relatively young band, their collective skills should be enough to keep them together until they reach that stage of polished and magnetic charisma that could be seen lurking underneath their act Friday night

Intense banal beauty by Jennifer Epps Imprint staff

And yet, re-watching TOP Stwud of Mu~+~ over the Christmas holidays, I was struck by the intense beauty of two perfectly banal lines. After Maria’s puppet show, the Captain stands smiling at her: “I’m really very, very much impressed.” Later, happy just to be listening to her, he asks “What else does the Reverend Mother say?” Honest-to-God, these simple utterances are the most romantic moments in the movie, in movies. They’re showmany stoppers.

In Istvan Szabo’s fiery backstage romance Meefiplg KVIUS, the subject is opera, so the theme is passion and the wide world of emotion. Fuses are short and loyalties are short-lived, and the coming together of Glenn Close’s diva and Niels Are&up’s conductor is played out against a bustling backdrop of human folly - the Opera Europa. Szabo presents it all with great dexterity, but you don’t think about the film afterwards. You Tnrly, Madly. Deeply takes that can’t use it in your life; the air the germ of an idea and expands it into a characters breathe is too rarefied. romantic comedy valiantly free of Similarly, in l%e prince of Tides, a mist.

You don’t believe Glenn dead: it has no special effects, no Close or Barbra Streisand ever get spooky lighting, no time wasted on runs in their nylons. Romance seems characters’ disbelief, no extraneous to come in a hermetically sealed pacplot, and no escapism. kage.

I blame

The point-of-view is the woman’s, not the phantom’s. Although the film begins with Nina (Juliet Stevenson) missing Jamie (Alan Rickman) so fervently she summons hti back from the ether, we’re not asked to buy into the pop tune ethic which equates loss of a love with loss of purpose in life. Much of this picture is about love as a gift, and Jamie gives Nina a loving freedom when he quotes for her a poem by Pablo Neurado: “My feet will want to march to where you are sleeping / But I shall go on living.” Of course you can caU Tnrly. Madly, &ply a fantasy, (depending upon your beliefs and your interpretation) but there is a bi. difference between it and, say, Late fir Dinner. One of the film’s greatest charms is the sight of Nina and Jamie together, not swooning not having crises, just being. Jamie was a cellist, now he plays for Nina while she dances around her apartment, both of them grinning and singing badly - it’s a ridiculous and transcendent snapshot. Jamie wakes Nina by dribbling water on her; he is troubled by a persistent cold; she is messy, disorganized, and has a bad habit of recording over movies she wanted to save. They embrace each other’s flaws, but Anthony

MingheWs script hints at the co& plexity and ambivalence of their relationship. They have disagreements. Nina comes home late and Jamie, who has been worrying about her, says “just like old times.” He starts bringing back spirit buddies and Nina is annoyed: ‘I don’t know these people. I don’t even know what period they’re from.” When she asks, sadly, “Was it Iike this befure?“, it’s a wonderful thud of a realization. Her memory of her lover was much glossier than the reality of him.

the govmment The characters afe meant to be unheroic, but they’re not just common folk (They don’t work in a diner like Frunkie and Johnny.) They’re cohuf~l, individualistic. Jarnie has an interest in politics, even in the after-life - ‘“The capatity for love that people have. Where does it go?” he speculates, deciding “I blame the government.” Nina is a compassionate linguist with devoted

friends of intemationaI background. Her pad is decorated in an eclectic, personaIwaywithknick-knacksfrom around the globe. Her brother-in-law is preparing to climb Mount Ever&, and her Polish landlord does a traditional dance to frighten off rats. And then there’s Anthony (Michael Maloney), who work in speciaI ed. but first attracts Nina’s attention by diverting a racist restauranteur’s attack with a magic act, He isn’t a gaseous guy, but he’s charming and interesting; we can see why Nina might be drawn to him. Nina and Anthony go on the “shortest date ever,” about one minute’s worth of biographical information breathlessly delivered by each while hopping on one foot. “Are you interested in my last name?” asks Anthony. These are the people pop ulating this picture, and that is the sense of hurnour - more interesting than gorgeous, imore awkward than awesome. MinghelIa directs with a touch so light it soars.

This particular issue focuses on fifteen famous, semi-famous, and infamous women artists, their attitudes about feminism, and their personal philosophies for change. Each woman is articulate, thoughtful, and intelligent; each woman has important things to say about the state of feminism today. In this book, you will find dykes, heteros, bitches, saints, sluts, and goddesses. You will find fury, rage, indifference, happiness, sadness, and hope. This book is essentially a distilled collection of every thoughtwave and philosophy of modern, progressive feminism; you may ape

Then, like a breath of f&h air-(not really, more like a whiff of thoroughly decadent, wet, and steaming XX), along comes Annie Sprinkle, former porn star, dancer, and prostitute; now, as a performance artist, she promotes a spiritual re-awakening for women, and a gentle, though positive, healing of the rift between men and women so that they can work togaher for change.

things that the singer has never done while he has been drinking beer. The fimt side ends off with what I think is the best song, but maybe that’s just because I’m partial to Cajun music, the song is called “Venez a Louisiane” and is preformed by the Cajun Ramblers. This band consists of the violin player, Peter Jellard and the bass player, Tim Hadely, from the Grievous Angels as well as a few other talented musicians. Side 2 opens with probably the

by Frank SegIenieks Imprint staff Well, the easiest way to review this album would be to say that if you like anyone of the artists on it you are likely to like to whole thing. However, if I only wrote 30 words I wouldn’t be reviewing many albums in the future, and more importantly it would exclude most people who probably haven’t heard of any of these people but would still enjoy the album. Moose records is .a Canadian independent record company which has released such bands as the Grievous Angels and the Cajun Ramblers, although most of the artists on the compilation have not. had a connection with the label in the past. The common ground for all of these bands is that they play simple downhome music about real people but the type of music ranges from folk to country to cajun. The album starts out with the Grievous Angels performing a song

The next tI7ree songs are nice, slower folk songs which add a good balance to the album The second last song is a cover of “You Are My Sunshine” by people called The Jack Family who supposedly have names like Reno Jaclk, Monterey Jack and One Eyed Jack. The last song is a straight up country song called1 by a band which started out doing Stompin’ Tom covers who appropriately call themselves “Positively Stolmpin’.” The song they do sounds a lot like Steve Earle, but it mentions that Maritime people are the friendliest ones they know, and that’s what J’ve found in my travels as well.

Unfortunately, they fail to live up to their promise on their second release, Heaven. While McErlaine’s “standard” guitar playing is good, his bottlenecking and slide work have become one-dimensional and even annoying at times. Spiteri remains physically bewitching (as evidenced by the video for the first single, “In My Heart”) and her voice is the focus of almost every song but she is unable to rescue the project from the realm of mediocrity.

It’s something I can’t feel / I hear you chant every other day / I think it’s not quite real.” Moreover, on “Walk the Dust,” Spiteri encourages a sister trapped in a bad marriage to leave her husband. But on the preceding song, “Return,” she claims: “I don’t like what I see / And I been living with it everyday,” proving that she is unable to practice what she preaches. The strongest aspect of M&hers Heuve?? is the keyboard playing of Eddie Campbell, whose piano contributes to the fullness of both the title track and “Alone with You.” His use of organ on “Why Believe in You” is reminiscent of Talk Talk. While Mothers Heaven is not quite a step backward for Texas, it is a disappointment. Considering the many successes of producer Tim Palmer (including Southside), the disappointment is multipkd. Hopefully, the band will rebound next time out.

Texas is a five-piece Scottish band whose music is best described as a fusion of rock and blues. Their debut Lp, Southside, did well on the British charts two years ago, largely due to the hit single “I Don’t Want A Lover.” The band’s principal members guitarist Ally McErlaine and lead vocalist Sharleen Spiteri - showed great promise and flashes of brilliance, the former as a slide guitar protege, and the latter as a sultry, soulful diva.

Lyrically, Mothers Hemm contains some inconsistencies. On the title track, Spiteri sings: ‘?I want a heaven / A heaven of our own / All I want is a heaven” and “Now open the sky and let me in.” On “In My Heart,” she desperately pleads: ‘Zord find me, don’t turn me

There’s a quick trip through this album and across Canada. As with most compilations, the bands are going to put their best stuff on it; consequently you probably won’t be disappointed. As the founder of Moose Records, Richard Chapman, says, “we are committed to bringing talented Canadians to a wider audience,” and I hope this album does just that So why not take a chance and pick up this fine example of real Canadian music and support the artists, or have you spent all your cash to see Bryan Adams in concert?

At this point in his career, it’s hard not to compare Lou Reed with Neil Young. Both of them have had long and erratic soto careers that have often failed to live up to the promise of their early years (in Reed’s case, his work with The Best Band Ever, the Velvet Underground). And in 1989, both Reed and Young released acclaimed “comeback” albums records that garnered cries of ‘best thing he’s done in years,” simply by virtue of playing old hands with new energy. Neil Young went on to merely repeat the trick - if Freedom distilled his familiar “acoustic folkie” persona, Ragged Glory returned to the equally

familiar “guitar monster” sound he furthering the “rock lyrics are as established 20 years ago.

We’ll do Lunch. &

’

Have your bugs .

Naked Lunch direcled by David Cronenbeg by Sandy Ahwal Imprint staff

It’s easy to understand why Naked Lunch has received so many rave reviews before - you even see the movie. Reinterpretations, adaptations and collections have never been more popular. This is evident from the success of the Aerosmith box set, movies like Hook, and anything by Andrew Lloyd Webber. Naked Lunch doesn’t quite fit into the above categories because it’s a good book to begin with, but Cronertberg’s “adaptation” doesn’t deserve half the accolades it’s received. The film is the bastard child of Nuked Lunch, Exterminator, Junkie, Queer, and Burroughs’ personal life. Recognizing these different elements in the film is annoying because it takes away immensely from the cohe-

sion of the film. If, however, you’re not aware of Burroughs’ world, the movie is at least an interesting if somewhat inapt exploration of some of Burroughs’ themes. The plot of the movie is almost inseparable from its style - they explore each other. The film is set in New York City, 1953. Bill Lee (Peter Weller), an exterminator, and his wife (Judy Davis) become addicted to the powder Bill is using to exterminate ‘the insects. William is taken in by the police on a charge of possession - of the bug powder. It’s at this point that the hallucinations start. The police bring in a huge bug, an insect which introduces itself as Bill’s contrqller. Slowly a conspiracy involving Interzone inc. is revealed. Having become hooked on an even stronger drug made from “large aquatic centipedes” his situation worsens. After Lee accidentally shoots his wife (which was actually an order from his controller), he takes a “trip” to Interzone. Interzone is a fictional place in

Burroughs’ mind but it’s as re’al and as full of danger as the Tangiers it is based upon (and the Tangiers where Burroughs wrote Naked Lunch). Here the movie starts to get going. The bug/typewriter/controller starts to reveal more of the criminal elements in the Interzone conspiracy. Some of Burroughs’ comic routines appear, the homo-erotic nature of Weller’s character starts to come ouf of the closet and Cronenberg begins to explore the relationship between Lee’s need for drugs and his need to write. It’s in the exploration of this relationship that Cronenberg is most successful, and aptly so since that’s one of the most important elements of Burroughs’ works. It should be noted that Cronenberg, contrary to perhaps his own opinion, is a mainstream director. He makes movies as a profession at least partly to make money. Thus his “Naked Lunch is unfilmable” stance comes across more as an excuse. What he’s done here is to loosely affiliate himself with Burroughs so as to attract the university crowd, and the 60-year-old hipsters, but it seems as though he’s more interested in fusing his own personality and building his own image. There’s too much Cronenberg in the film. The effects intend to disturb the audience, but come out as rather pretenqous. The. same technique of blurring the hallucinations of the character with thk viewer’s *world as used in Kdeodmne, is repeated here. Like the special effects, the repeated style seems forced.

throated Dave Robinson assembled what he called the “new” WKwith (mostly) different members - even a keyboard player. They came back with a different souod and played a few of the old faves, realizing they couldn’t compare with their past. One year iater, though, and UK has become exactiy what they didn’t want to be. The lineup has reverted to the familiar two-guitar, bass and drums combo. Half of the songs they played were from the old band, but without the twin guitar grind that only Ted and Slack could dish out. UK has become a UK cover band Superchunk were back in town far sooner than I expected them to be. Just a few months ago they opened for Mudhoney at the Opera House and now they can fill a good portion of the large club on their own. They put on a good show. Very good, in fact. Not exactly the “show of the year” that some guy on - CFNY

called it (Soundgarden has that one sewn up so far), but well worth the five bucks it cost me to get in. Superchunk sound like a bunch of kids who grew up listening to the Ramones, but thought the songs were too slow. So, unlike the rest of us, they did something about it and started writing their own adrenalinecharged power pop. They sound an awful lot like Wrong-era NoMeansNo. Or a great Change of Heart - if you can imagine such a thing. The three-guy, onexhick outfit belted out an hour’s worth of tunes. The standout tunes quickly rose to the top, while the rest started to blend into a large (pardon me) chunk of guitar noise. Luckily, they had enough hooks up their sleeve to carry it off and left the crowd pleased that they didn’t just stay at home listening to Ramones albums and wishing they rould air-guitar faster.

+cont’d. from page 21. .tears for her. Rickman, the man behind the ogres in Die Hard and Robin Hood, underplays adeptly. Maloney, together with Bill Paterson (as Nina’s uncle), make vulnerability vivid. The ensemble doesn’t put a foot wrong what’s good about the performances is hard to pinpoint because they are so baIanced. A game created by Nina and Jamie, in which they try to outdo each other with adverbs expressing their love, is the origin of the title. Communicating and connecting are very real themes in this movie - it’s no wonder Nina works with languages. Nina tells her psychiatrist that Jan-tie’s voice is always around, but never offers any words of wisdom. Instead, he mostly reminds her to brush her teeth and kxk the back door. The reason the advice is so mundane, of course, is that Jamie lava her. Truly, madly, deeply, deliciously, passionately.
