Peterson’s rrmn praises IS. by Christina Hardy Imprint staff

On May 1’1, as part of the Orientation Program for Incle- pendent Studies, ,Philip Dewan, Director of Policy to Ontario Premier David Peterson and In- dependent Studies graduate,

,gave a lecture on “Independent Learning and the World of Work. ”

Dewan, who graduated with a BLS. in 1980, also spent a year at the University rjf Hawaii in the Future Studies and Public Policy

option of their MA programme in Political Science. While at Wa- terloo, he was a more “tradi- tional” student in a non-traditional programme. He undertook a full load of courses, making only minimal use of some of the programme’s special features.

With respect to the working world, Dewan cited two impor- tant aspects of Independent Stu- dies that have proven useful: the ability to learn independently and the ability to synthesize in- formation. Coincidentally, these

mirror two of the three original goals of Integrated Studies in 1969. The third goal, student self-government, was not rele- vant to his concern.

The lecture by Dewan was just one event in the I/S Orientation, giving an example of what comes out of the programme. The I/S programme at Waterloo is uni- que in that it is the only pro- gramme in Canada based on self-directed learning. The pro- gramme is run primarily by stu- dents and academic advisors with continued involvement and

“Canada’s economy will show a slow but steady growth through 1988, with no recession in sight,” predicts UW Professor James Brox in hi8 ninth annual macroeconomic forecast.

Utilizing WAT,FORE, a UW modified and updated computer model originally developed by Statistics Canada, Brox foresees domestic demand growth slow- ing to 1.6 per cent because of weakening business investment. Gross domestic product is ex- pected to increase, after an infla- tion adjustment, by 3.2 per cent.

Improvements in the job situa- tion should see the unemploy- ment rate ease down to 7.7 per cent during the year. Moderation is expected to’cgntinue in wage settlements 8s &bour looks for

*Make UW safe On August 19,1986, a letter was mailed to UW’s Director of Safety

Mr. N. Ozaruk. The letter addressed students’ concerns regarding poor lighting on campus. Then Federation women’s commissio- ner D.A. Evans as well as a former member of the President’sAdvi- sary Committee on Traffic and parking submitted the written warning of what was to come: a campus which is risky to venture out on at nigh).

The Federation of Students’letter stated “We feel that it is our duty to point out this problem to the administration. They should be aware of the possibility of liability due to accidents which may be a result of lack of lighting.”

Back in 1986, the Federation served notice that “especially women, have expressed heightened fear while walking in darkened areas on campus...”

A carbon copy of the letter was sent to the Security Department. Prior to the appointment of Al MacKenzie as Director of Security last summer, #the Campus cops kept a very tight lid on statistics of assaults happening on campus let alone descriptive accounts of what happened. Public awareness on campus was at a standstill.

On April 7, 1988, a female villager was assaulted on the village sidewalk known as the “bible path.” She was walking alone after midnight; her assailant was chased away by three male students who happened along the scene.

Almost one month later on May 5, one man is thought to have harassed two separate women in what can only be described as “just short of assault”, but nevertheless, sexual harassment: a man touched a woman’s breast then fled, and allegedly, then confronted another woman inside the women’s washroom of a different campus building just ten minutes later.

The most recent report coming out of security is that two male university students were assaulted last Friday, The two first year students were assaulted with punches and kicks neara well lighted part of Columbia road. At least 15 cars drove by the incident and chose to ignore the unsolicited beating these two youths received.

Becauseof the commendable decision by the se&ity department to report threatening assaults which effect all of us, fiat&loo stu- dents may be surprised at the number of assaults which may poten- tially take up the headlines. Director of Security Al MacKenzie is not surprised. Incidents like the May 5 sexual harassment are not that infrequent, Mackenzie said.

Many of you may not have realized it, but at UW we have a very competent security department. They are all former police officers with at least five years experience, or have been educated in the field of security.

They conduct foot patrols through the campus and in cars around Ring Road. There are about sixteen officer6 on board at the moment and that number will rise to about eighteen eventually. There is one female security officer. They are located just West of the smoke stack behind the MC building and may be reached at extension 3211 :

The question that begs to be asked is Where does the solution lie in making UW safer? Notice has been served to the adniinistration two years ago. But lighting is not the only problem. The events reported in the last two iSsues of Imprint were made public simply because of a change in heart at the security department level. The problem did not just begin; it has been with us locked up in the administration’s filing cabinets.

This latest event demonstrates that more than good lighting is needed to steer this campus from its conducive-to-assault state. At other universities there are emergency telephones and student bike patrols. The Federation of Students should press the university harder than ever for similar programs to be implemented at UW. If nothing is done, the liability for all assaults, some more severe than others, lies with the people who run this campus: the Board of Governors and the Senate.

I’m now sit- ting here writing this with aches, pains, deep muscle & bone bruises, an’d a cracked jaw. I was kicked. I was punched; my shirt and jacket were ripped off my back.

I don’t know why??? It’s a scary thought when you consider where

this occurred.

The last point particularly bothers me. I was able to escape partially, and I tried to

flag down cars. I was waving wildly, yelling for help, my shirt and jacket were ripped, and these three guys were trying to drag me back, all the while hitting me. Fifteen or twenty cars passed by, no one ever stopped.

Unprovoked violence scares me, indifferent passersby scares me even more. I was obviously wanting help; I was obviously in trouble, yet not one car stopped. What did you think??? “It’s none of my business, ” “Oh, he’ll be alright.”

What’s new in the SAC? . Lots! Co-op SAC, the Student

Advisory Council to Co-opera- tive Education and Career Servi- ces’ is the forum for student feedback to Needles Hall. Pre- vious feedback has led to a cou- ple of great new ideas.

There is now a new way to check up on an employer before you apply for an interview or rank them. It’s called the Student Workterm Summary.

All Co-op students fill out a summary, form during their re-

! turn-to-cam.pus interviews. These forms are then filed and left in: a binder in the Career Re- source Centre, which is on the

first floor of Needles Hall. Now, when you go through in-

terviews, you can look in the binder and see what the last s+

dent thought of the job you’re applying for. It’s a great way to reduce the risk of getting a job you don’t like.

There is also a new Co-op handbook coming out soon. It contains everything you need-to

know about interviews, work re- ports, Co-op regulations etc.

The first issue will be handed out to the frosh in September. Upper year students can buy it at the bookstore in the fall,

If you have a Co-op question, problem or idea, just contact one of your faculty SAC reps. Their pictures are posted at Needles Hall near the receptionist.

If you don’t recognize any of them, your student society should be able to track them down for you. If not, come to a SAC meeting. They are held d every two weeks, The next meet- ing is Tuesday, May 24 at 4:30 in NH 1029.

Did You Know: If you take a ninth school term you don’t have to pay Co-op fees for that term, as your total fees are divided over the first eight terms.

The Department of National Defence’s decision to purchase lo-12 nuclear-powered attack submarines (SSNs] is a bad decision for Canadian security. The following is a short outline of the reasons Project Ploughshares is not in favour of the SSN decision.

National Defence support of the SSN decision is contained in two separate arguments:

1) SSNs would improve NATO‘s ability to defend against a Soviet attack (and thus improve its ability to deter that attack).

2) Canadian SSNs will help to defend Canadian arctic sovereignty from foreign submarines.

With regards to the first argument, there is no reason to believe that the Soviet Union has any intention of going to war against us. But let’s assume for the moment that there is a need for a stronger defence to deter a Soviet attack. The argument that Canada should buy SSN’s is still weak. -

Like any other defence decision, SSN’s have an “op ortunity cost” - given a limited defence budget, spending $8-14 rl illion on ‘SSN’s means foregoing other defence programs, Would SSN’s: constitute the best use of Canada’s defence dollar?

Our NATO allies can’t understand why Canada would buy SSN’s. NATO already has an almost overwhelming military su- periority at sea - if there is any shortfall in NATO’s naval forces, according to NATO analysts, it is in frigates, not SW’s, If there is any shortfall in NATO’s military forces in general, it is in ground forces. Spending our defence budget on SSN’s would prevent defence spending in areas where NATO thinks it’s really needed - in effect, undermining Canada’s defences.

With regards to the Department of National Defence’s second argument, what is at stake in the arctic is not Canada’s sover- eignty as a whole, but only whether foreign vessels have the right to transit the Northwest Passage. At present, this challenge comes from the U.S. Navy; there is no evidence that Soviet subs have ever passed through the Canadian arctic. ,

According to National Defence, the very presence of Canadian SSN’s would deter U.S. submarines from transitting the Passage (it has admitted that we would not use force). However, the legal principles under which the US. asserts the right to transit the passage are the same principles under which it asserts the right to (and does] transit Soviet territorial waters. And if the presence of the Soviet Navy doesn’t stop the U.S.‘Navy’s transits, neither would the presence of Canadian SSN’s.

The real way to protect Canada’s arctic sovereignty is on the diplomatic level, by making it clear to the United States and other nations that good relations with Canada are dependent on their good behaviour in the Canadian Arctic.

Canadian SSN’s would contribute to the continuation of the global naval arms race and to the further militarization of the Arctic. One role of the SSN’s would be to track [and, in wartime, destroy) Soviet nuclear missile submarines, ai part of the larger US, strategy for “fighting” a nuclear war. This strategy carries a major risk of starting a nuclear war.

Canada’s purchase would set a bad precedent. SSN’s put the ingredients for nuclear bombs into the hands of their military operators with virtually no safeguards against misuse. Canada would never divert this material to build bombs, but other coun- tries might. Countries that are considering SSN purchasessuch as Argentina, Brazil and Pakistan [all of which have n+uclear bomb development programs), would be able to point to Canada’s SSN purchase as a precedent for their own‘acquisition ofSSN’s. Thus, Canada’s purchase might help to open up an additional path for the spread of nuclear weapons.

SSN’s would carry the risk of a radiation disaster in a Canadian port or in Canadian waters. According to one Btudy, a serious naval reactor accident in Esquimalt, British Columbia, could cause up to hundreds of deaths and long-term contamination of a large part of Esquimalt and neighbouring Victoria. Such an acci- dent is unlikely, but it is not impossible. A”terrorist” attack is one possibility that National Defence seems to have to have ignored. An SSN would be far more vulnerable to such an attack than, for example, a civilian nuclear reactor, which is surrounded by a massive concrete containment building. If a SSN became the target .for such an attack, a serious disaster could result.

Finally, there are the non-military “opportunity costs” of the SSN purchase. There are many threats to Canadian security be- sides the possibility of a delibeyate Soviet attack. The enormous amount of money to be spent cn the SSN’s would take away funds that could have been spent on efforts to end the arma race, or to protect the global environment’ or otherwise to reduce imminent threats facing the security and well-being of Canadians.

Canada has no military need for SSN’s, By contrast, there are ‘several convincing reasons for not acquiring them. The Depart- ment of &tional Defence should look out for the real security interests of Canadians. These interests lie in an end to the global arms race and the

& reservation of the global commons, not in

nuclear-powered su marines. For more information contact Project Ploughshares, Conrad

TO YOUR HEALTH. Voice of moderation

Most adults know the pleasures of alcohol - good vintage wine, good times with good friends at the local bar, a before or after-dinner drink. But alcohol can have disastrous effects on your family life, social life, employment’ and personal health (both physical and mental),

The Addiction Research Foundation urges that we need to ba aware of how much alcohol we drink.

Drinks per day

0 to2 SAFE: You are drink- ing in moderation: your health risk is minimal if consumption doesn’t increase. /- 3 ot 4 CAUTION: Some increase in health risk from long term consumption at this level. Be caref,ul not to increase 600sumption. Learn more about alcohol.

5 or 6 HAZARDOUS: Danger of addiction or physical/psychological dependency. Seek pro- fessional counselling concerning alcohol intake.

7 or 8 HARMFUL: Serious health risk (cir- rhosis of liver, heart disease, and cancer), Re- duce your level of consumption and consult your physician.

9 or 10 EXTREMELY DANGEROUS: Life expectancy may be reduced IO to 12 years, The chances are very good that you are drinking at the “alcoholic” level of consumption. Profes- sional treatment is required. ..**..........*...**.......*.~....~.*..~.....

The above scale is based on consumption lev- els for adult men weighing about35 lb (70 kg), of average build, and in good health. On average, for women, the number of drinks should be re- duced’by one third. For people lighter or heavier than average, the number of drinks should be

altered proportionately.

Early signs of problem drinking:

I. family problems associated with drinkIfig 2. hiding liquor 3. drinking as a solution to life’s problems 4. not recalling previous drinking episodes , 5. increased job/school absenteeism and late-

ness 6. lying about drinking 7. increased tolerance to alcohol 8. More susceptibility to accidents and illness 3, preoccupation with drinking - IO. poor job performance

It is difficult to say what may be a safe drink- ing level for pregnant women. Alcohol does cross the placenta and therefore drinking is dis- couraged while pregnant.

Fed handbook gets.an u.pdate

Derik Hawley Imprint staff

The Federation Info Date- Book, featuring a revamped layout and revised information section, will be out in Sep- tember.

Ian Lipton, a recent Co-op Pol- itical Science graduate and former village don, is this year’s handbook editor, “I am trying to get into journalism through the back door,” explained Lipton, who wants to improve his skills in -editing, sales, business and production.

Revenue from advertisements in the handbook is expected to reach ‘$50 000, up 25% from last year And almost 100% from two years ago.

In the calendar section, the date boxes will be replaced by columns, so that a full week is displayed per page spread. This layout should be easier to use and won’t cut down on the ad- vertising _ revenue, Lipton said. The new format will feature the hours of the day screened over each day of the week which will enable students to pencil in their daily appointments according to an hourly structure.

Mike Brown, last ear’s editor, now editor-in-chic r of Imprint Publications, said in an inter- view that he had problems get- ting, clients invoiced by the Federation and with distsibu-. tion, “The structure was intide- quate,” he sai&.

Lipton feels confident these problems can be solved.

The circulation of the hand- book ran at 15,000 in 1987-88. The hook was issued’ free of

- charge for the first time. The 1988-89 handbook will be the third such Federation publica- tion which combines the old Fed- eration date book with an information section,

Organizers of this year’s Info- Date Book are investigating the poasibility of completely -pro- ducing the Handbook electroni- cally kith the aid of Page Maker software. The Federation is con- sidering purchasing the neces- sary technology which would allow them greater production capabilities in the future.

New co-op exchange -

by Derik Hawley Imprint staff

The continued success of the Co-operative program has caused other universities to look to Waterloo’s system to gain in-

‘sight into UW’s success.

The University of Illinois and Montclair State College (New Jersey) have sent teams to study the Arts Co-op program. Mont- clair is looking for ways to im-

prove its Arts Faculty Co-op system, while the team from Illi- nois is looking for ways to imple- ment one. ,

At UW there are currently 1,139 Arts Co-op students. Of the approximate total of 14,000

undergraduates, over 9,000 at- . tend Waterloo- through the Co- operative stream of study.

Also as part of the Co-op pro- gram, an exchange has been set up between the university of

Cincinnati and Waterloo for Ar- chitecture students, The bilat- eral program is designed to allow Waterloo students to seek jobs with some of the large American firms in New York, Boston and other cities. Without the exchange program, Canadian students would be unable to get jobs in the United States because of v isa restrictions.

About five students will be crossing the border each way per work term.

University of Manitoba

Cdrrupt insider Financial mismanagement of Manitoba’s student government

has sparked allegations which have resulted in the suspension of the Students’ Union director of administration. Withhojding in- formation from the student executive is cited for the reason of the suspension of Mike Crutch, He has allegedly cost the Students? Union hundreds of thousands of dollars in business losses and left them in a “financial mess,” according to reports in the Manitoban. UMSU President Kevin Janzen charges “He (Crutch] tried to cover up the loss by making a major equipment purchase, of $48,000 for the Print Shop and trying to put it into the budget of the Building Fund. By trying to put that expenditure into the Fund it was intended to make it look like the business is making money, In actuality, our audit pow tells us that they lost over $32,000. . -

Protect you r bike. by George Dennie Imprint staff

With the advent of summer, which always brings bicycles out by the hundreds, students now have to think about hoiv to avoid another creature of summer:‘bike thieves.

A favorite place of thieves is around the Math and Computer building and the Campus Centre, as so many people leave their bikes there, said Brian Bradley of Campus Security.

But with the range of bicycle locks available, it may be hard to decide which kind to buy.

Kryptonite-style locks (those which have a U-shaped bar of plasticized metal with a remova- ble metal crossbar that locks to the U] are by far the best, Brad- ley said. A good one costs be- tween $30 and $45.

Many of these locks also come with theft insurance, but you should check the insurance

agreement to see if it is full of loopholes, making it difficult to claim, before you pay extra for it.

If you don’t want to spend very much, a less expensive lock style is a heavy chain and padlock combination. These locks are not nearly as good as the Kryptonite versions, but they do deter cas- ual theft.

According to Security’s crime prevention officer, locks on which the locking device is a part of the chain offer the least protection.

A lock serves little purpose if it is not used to deter theft, Whe- never possible, Bradley advised to attach a bicycle to an immova- ble object such as a bike rack or lightpost.

You should position your lock SQ it is hooked to the frame since it is usually the most expensive part of a bicycle to replace.

The rear wheel is normally less costly, and the front wheel the least expensive, which you should consider when locking up

. your bike.

It your bike is stolen, don’t despair, Bradley said, as the ma- jority of stolen bikes are aban- doned after a week or so and are picked up by the authorities when owners of the property complain.

If you have the serial number, your driver’s license number en-. graved on the frame, or an accu- rate description of your bicycle, you may be able to claim it at Campus Security or Waterloo’s police station.

Currently, Campus Security will hold a bike for ten months before sending it off to an outlet store, Bradley said.

Vacancies increase for professional jobs

by John Mason Imprint staff

Vacancies for professional jobs in Canada increased by 63 per cent in the last twelve months according to the Techni- cal Service Council, an industry- sponsored placement service and personnel consulting firm. Surveying 1700 firms nation- wide, the council showed above average improvements in Onta- rio, Alberta and British Colum- bia. The Ontario market was classified as overheating. ,

Employers reported positions are often open for extended peri- ods before being filled. Pulp and paper, mining, construction and service industries have the larg- est number of vacancies while electronics has the least,

Job hunters are becoming more selective as the choices increase. Companies are reporting in- creased rejections of job offers. Two and three job offers are still not filling vacancies as bidding wars between employers are being undertaken for quality personnel.

The UW Co-op graduate is finding the situation very attrac- tive because of the invaluable practical experience gained dur- ing previous work terms. Not having to provide additional - training to the UW graduate makes prospective employers view their necessary financial outlay as reduced.

Vacancies for computer pro- grammers, systems analysts, ac- countants and mechanical engineers lead the employment opportunities.

by Derik Hawley Imprint staff

After nearly eight years, the Red Army will finally be pulling out of Afghanistan. The war which has caused more than one million deaths will remain for generations in the minds of the Afghan people.

Afghanistan is a relatively small country in the mountain- ous desert region of central Asia. The country has been invaded, although never totally con- quered, by Alexander the Great, Gengis Khan and a failed at- tempt by the British in the nine- teenth century led to a prolonged war over the Kyber pass.

Why then would the Soviets want to get themselves into a lengthy war against such a de- termined foe?

Prior to 3978, Islamic Law was both the custom and legal prac- tice in Afghanistan. In 1978 the Communist People’s Democratic Party of Afghanistan overthrew the government and placed Nur Mohamed Taraki in the govern- ment as president.

For the Soviets it was a victory for the causes of Marxism. The army coup was now caled a re- volution.

The new government tried some daring modernization pro- grams; land redistribution+ liter- acy campaigns and most importantly some cultural mo- dernizations of the traditional Islamic law.

Then opposition rose from several factions. The wealthy land- owners saw their posses- sions threatened, The tribal chiefs saw their power wea- kened. And the fundamentalist Muslims saw a threat to their way of life.

The end of the Taraki regime came from inside rather than out, In another coup Prime Min- ister Hafizulah Amin took power; Taraki was killed in the fighting.

Under Amin the revolution took on a darker form, The re- form movement became syn- onymous with torture and executions.

The Soviet Union, feeling their revolution threatened, decided to do something.

On a quiet winter morning, Dec.27, 1979, Soviet forces were airlifted into Kabul, the capital city. American witnesses re- ported Soviet airborne troops faacdeattacked the presidential pa-

Within a matter of weeks al- most 50,000 troops were de- ployed throughout Afghanistan, garrisoned in the provincial cap- itals.

Meanwhile the radio an- nounced that Babrak Kamal was the new President and had in-

vited the Soviets to help stabil- ize his government. After several years, Kamal was ousted and secret police chief Najibulah became president.

A Soviet Vietnam?

News stories and popular im- pressions have labelled Afghan- istan the Russian version of Vietnam. The metaphor is par- tially, though by no means com- pletely, accurate.

On a political level the conflict was much different. There was no Viet Cong or North Vietna- mese army. The opposition to the Marxist governments was in the form of several, relatively small bands of rebels. These fsrces have yet to show a solid, united front.

The ideological situation was also different. In South Vietnam there was a Capitalist regime in the south and a Communist one in the north. Both ideologies were relatively new in the coun- tr.y. The war had also been going on on longer before other coun- tries were involved. The war in Vietnam was around 20 year9 old when the American forces arrived.

In Afghanistan, a new ideol- ogy was implemented, sup- ported by a superpower trying to survive against the opposition of a tradition which went back more thgn a millennium.

From a tactical point of view the conflict was very similar. A massive military machine (over lOO,$lOO Soviet troops and 40,000 Afghans loyal to the Kabul re- gime], complete with air-power, challenged poorly equipped reb- els. The rebels would have been defeated quite easily if it hadn’t been for two things

The West was very quick to send aid, Saudi Arabia, the Uni- ted States, Britain and China sent weapons and medical supp- lies to the Mujahadin rebels. Se- condly, the mountainous terrain made it possible for the 200,000 rebels to find secure hiding pla- ces.

Unlike Vietnam, the war in Afghanistan has been a holy one, with fundamentalist Muslims on one side and secular Commu- nists on the other.

In Afghanistan, the US sup- ported the radical Islamic fac- tion which it has tried so hard to suppress elsewhere in the Mid- dle East. The Sunni fundamen- talist Mujahadin would be considered a threat to the West if they were in a pro-western state such as Egypt.

The reason for the American defeat in Vietnam was a matter of communications, Television news coverage showed Ameri- cans first hand the horrors of the

war. That more than anything left scars on the American cul- ture. In Russia however there was no such coverage.

Why then is the Red Army pulling out ?

A great many things have oc- curred since 197% The old re-

gime of Breshnev has been passed over to the new, more modern Gorbechev leadership. As part of his efforts to improve the productivity and quality of life in the U.S.S.R., the Soviets have taken a policy of detente. What is more, the war in Afghan- istan has been a huge drain on Russian resources.

Also in 1987, Ronald Reagan undertook a massive effort to force the Soviets into a decision by sending the rebels anti-air- craft missiles, Before the mis- siles arrived the rebels were defenseless against Soviet helic- opters.

Stripped of their air power, the Red army was unable to launch major offenses without escalat- ing the war further. And that is exactly what the Kremlin didn’t want.

Eight Years in an Unsuccessful War

The Soviet Union’s credibility in the Middle East has suffered. They have appeared as the enemy of Islam, a role which they have tried to give the Amer- icans. For this they have lost about 18,000 of their soldiers.

The Americans have spent $2 billion to stop the Soviet inter- vention, for which they have gained nothing other than diplo- matic points for embarrassing the U.S.S.R.

Pakistan, Afghanistan’s southern neighbour, has had to deal with an influx of some three million ref*ees.

Most of all, Afghanistan has suffered from war atrocities by both sides. Her towns have been bombed, her countryside burned and over a million have been left dead.

Afghanistan also stands to suffer the most in the future. Removal of the Soviet presence will not end the war, It will just give the Mujahadin the ability to take the initiative.

And who can predict how long the civil war will continue? It took only a year for the South Vietnam government to fall after the Americans left,

How long will the Ka~bul re- gime remain, and can the various factions of Mujahadin rebels resist the temptation to fight amongst themselves? Only time will tell.

Native playwrights fight government by Ed Drass Imprint staff

Like the land claim of the Lu- bicon Lake Cree Indians, many native groups across Canada are engaged in various negotiations and even court cases fighting to gain control over land they con- sider theirs. Many have taken to publicizing their situations in many different ways, in order to gain support, However, only a few of these groups have taken to the stage to tell people across the country about their particu- lar fights.

Two tribes in British Colum- bia developed a play called No Xya’, which means Our Foot- prints, and sent it across the country, where it found its way to the Humanities Theatre May 9.

Exhibit a powerful interp.retation of human nature by John Mason Imprint Staff

The unique exhibit, entitled “Torsos and Heads,” opened at the UW Arts Centre Gallery on May 12. Toronto based artist Joan Krawczyk’s work was a subdued but intimate affair for the small gathering present.

Krawczyk moved through the gallery explaining each of her pieces and answering questions. The representational collection, which covered works from var- ious stages of her artistic devel- opment, came alive as she explained the thought patterns

Columbia and Canada, Subtitled “A Play About Self-Govern- ment” the shqw turned out to be a combination of history, docu- mentary, dance, discussion and, even a mini-potlatch ceremony. [buttons were handed out during the show.)

Having minimal contact with native people, I had little idea of what it was going to be like. I only knew the play would proba- bly not follow the structure of “shows” that so many of us are used to, Native “entertainment” usually follows the beat of a dif- ferent drum - and there is always a drum, With the aid of simple sets, (wood painted with sym- bols of mountains, rivers and salmon as well as a symbolic- totem pole)‘, the company brought the audience to a mysti- cal battlefield and then through a history of the land of the Gits- kan and Wetsuwet’en peoples. The history was of three part’s: a time of plenty, fdllowed by the first contact with white settlers and finally a collection of scenes depicting the recent past with conflicts between native and non-native families as well as- bet ween natives and loggers and even shotgun-wielding fisheries officers. All this was in- terspersed with mystical dances and chants.

Even with various unfavoura- ble treatments of European new-

comerk, clergy and government representatives, the play was not one to make non-native Can- adians upset. . The company, comprised of four capable ac- tors, was evenly divided into na- tive and non-native with many different roles being held by each, aiding the mix of cultural styles the play represented. Var- ious simple “rituals” were tied in with the history. Recordings of native speech and drumbeats ac- companied the gradual raising of a totem pole throughout the play.

Left generally wiser

The discussion that took the place of the, second act was simply a question and answer session between the audience and the actors as well as an elder from the Gitskan-Wetsuwet’en area. This served as an informa- tion session for those who wanted to know more about the actual land claim and court case,

I left generally wiser, and with an overall feeling of calm. I had just enjoyed a look into a culture I’ve always known was there but had not previously explored+ I have the feeling that others also have a curiosity concerning na- tive peoples, and na?ional suc- cess of this play suggests there may be a wave of interest among Canadians about the cultures and people that connect us to the

and reasoning behind her im- ages.

Currently considered one of Canada’s rising talents, Ms. Krawczyk ui;es the adult human for.m in all her work, “Children,” she said, “are not sufficiently developed and their characters are not defined yet.” “I find it difficult to fully grasp the iden- tity of a child,” She seems though, to have captured the es- sence of the adult completely.

Earlier in her career+ she created large pure iconic portrait heads which tended toward an almost better than life interpre-

tation of the human being and its characteristics, She has now left this very personal level of art be- hind as she has become more concerned with human naturb

After almost a decade’s worth of superb song writing, Spadina Hotel gigs and just plain hard work. *Andrew Cash has cer- tainly built himself a rock-solid foundation and now he’s finally able to put something on top of it: a major deal with the big boys at Island Records, As the first Can- adian artist signed to the label of such notables -as U2 and Steve Winwood, Andrew Cash has ac-

proud of, and it ain’t’ undeserved - his strong energetic vocals, backed up by melodic electro- acoustics topped off with a nice clean production makes his debut LP, Time and Place, some- thing of an oasis in a desert of just too many flash-in-the-pan albums.

Although the catchy title track will most likely transform this Queen Street native from being Canadian independent artist of yesterday to being as main- stream as the St. Lawrence River tomorrow, he nevertheless has successfully undergone the tran- sition to a major label while maintaining his song writing in- tegrit y.

L’Etranger fans will remember Andrew Cash as being the front man of this Canadian indie band since their formative years in the early eighties. Their energetic

earned them a Juno in 1984, seeps into the album - lyrically which they adamantly refused in there are bits of Andrew’s per- protest of the faGt that the Juno sonal, philosophy coming sponsor was tied business-wise through, on issues from nation- to South Africa - and this was at alism to social injustice, and yet

a time when the apartheid issue was not yet brought to the gen- eral awareness of most Canadi- ans.

After the 1986 evaporation of L’Etranger, Andrew emerged on the indie scene as a vibrant solo force, with his early Fringe re- leases such as the upbeat Trclil of Teurs earning him critical ac- claim for not only his strong vo- cals and catchy guitar hooks, but also for his top-notch song writ- ing ability. This sound has stayed with Andrew on Time and Place, and he and producer John Switzer (Jane Siberry bas- sist/producer) have characteris- tically kept the subtle mistakes on vinyl, resulting in an honest and bared-boned sound coming through. The music here ranges from tuneful and contemplative ballads to straight ahead upbeat pop melodies, laced at times with a folky feel born of An- drew’s predominantly acous ti-

he manages to maintain a bal- anced compromise between the music and the message.

Nine months of solo touring with nothing more than a faith- ful acoustic guitar have honed Andrew Cash for his current Canadian tour, which brought the rootsy Torontonian’ back to his home turf to play the Horse- shoe Tavern for two dates (April 20th and 21st), this time accom- panied by his five member re- cording band. The highly successful tour, coupled with the fine LP, will firmly establish An- drew Cash as a major Canadian artist, both here at home and el- sewhere after - the forthcoming worldwide release of Time and Place,.. and after ten highly-ac- claimed years in the Canadian indie scene, it’s about time this veteran minstrel has finally come of age. Andrew Cash’s Time and Place it seems, is very “here and now”.

Is fIREHOSE the quintessen- tial American band of the late 8Os? Take the ashes of The Min- utemen (bassist Mike Watt and drummer George Hurley) and add an REM freak, Ed fROMO- HI0 (nee Crawford), on guitar and a whole American musical heritage from CCR to Charlie Parker, and fIREHOSE stands in the same position as the REM of five or six years ago - a familiar sound that still sounds as dis- tinctive and refreshing as a dou- ble-scooper of lime sherbet under a noonday desert sun.

Although mbre accessible than their debut wailer, Ragin’, Full On. “if ‘n” is still freeform andslapdash enough to suggest that they’re making it up on the spot, notes seemingly just falling from out of the sky, and things aren’t made Top do-friendly rambing, stream-of-uncon- ciousness lyrics (i.e. From One Cums One - ” try and prove this song by loading ft in a central american gun. quit the army! think love! now think the stars without any reason, held up by nothing...ya, none of your busi- ness) imagine this: the stars are being swallowed up by your eyes”). But with virtuosos like Mike “thunder broom” Watt and Hurley and with Ed showing that he’s been digging a lot of jazz and fusion improvisation, everything seems to have an or- ganic (sorry, awful word) sense of purpose even when it seems most directionless.

The quintessential American band

of the 8Os?

But can they write songs, scream the proles. Hell, they can even write REM songs; For The Singer Of REM is one of the best in-jokes of the year, in one feel swoop poking the title of REM’s biggest hit, Ed fROMOHIO’s love of Stipe and co. (apparently Watt and Hurley have quite a time making sure Ed’s songs don’t all turn out as homage to Peter Buck’s guitar), nonsensical Southern mysticism - try telling me that “here’s a version of tradi- tion” isn’t a vintage Stipe lyric - and make the whole thing sound like Driver 8.

There are even a couple of hit singles here, if radio pro- grammers didn’t all have their heads up their arses. The lovely In Memory of EIizabeth Cotton takes a folky stroll through the clover, a spare, dignified tear- jerker that reminds me of Fleet- wood Mac’s Rumours for some ungodly reason. Maybe America - wasn’t so bad afte~$l. Honey Please, with its brillihnt walking bass line, is an infectious po- p/rock anthem if ever I’ve heard one, and the relentlessly rolling drums turn Someti,mes into a jolting, jarring three minutes of rock n’ roll yumminess’

The ghost of d. Boon continues to smile one of the most affable bands you’ll ever run across. I defy anyone to dislike this album. Ya!

The Christians used to be an acappella group, and although thej?!re now a pop band, they ha- ven’t abandoned their roots. I’ve had this album for about a month and a half, and at first I really didn’t like it. I thought the lead vocals were too weak Garry Pri- estman, the lead vocalist seemed naked without the backup of’his brother and Henry Priestman. I still feel the lead vocals could be stronger, but the album has grown on me to the point where I really like it. The Christians, be- sides their obvious acappella in- fluence also bring funk, Motown, and jazz into their mix. Add some spiritual longing too, and you’ve got the Christian’s album. Not a bad debut release.

years. Just about everything that comes out nowadays has that roots rock feel. After listening to a couple songs of this album I was ready to give up. Nothing especially new here, but that was until Hang Tough, the third song on the first side. The tempo picked up, and Bob Forrest the lead singer(?!) launches into an attack qn the people who ignore the madness, suicide, and drugs so prevalent ifi this world, From here on in, the album swiftly changes gears and drives off into an as of yet unexplored territory.

All Live And All Of The Night is the Stranglers’ latest live of- fering and it mines the gem- laden veins of Stranglers’ past albums, stretching from their debut 1977 punk classic,Rattus Norvagicue, to last year’s fantas- tic Dreamtime. Rarely does a band do such a retrospective set; consequently, All Live And All Of The Night is one hell of a good album.

Side one has Down in the Sewer, Always the Sun, and Golden Brown in a row: argua- bly their three best songs (my three favorites at any rate]. The Stranglers treat them with spon- taneity, Down in the Sewer has that wild organ and great length, and Golden Brown strays from the original in a wonderful way, but not too far, These three songs a show what the Stranglers are capable of: Sewer is a loud, punky piece, while Always the Sun is a meiodic, lovely song.

All of their owti compositions are played well -they know their material well enough to fool around with it. But their version of the Kinks’ signature tune AI1 Day and all of the Night lacks punch.

SPECIAL NOTE: You should be aware that the Fed Flicks are not going to be held in Arts Lecture Hall this term. Instead go over to the Physics Building by the Engineering Lecture Hall for the films. And because there are fewer people here this summer, there will be only one show per night. That’s Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 8 pm. The schedule appears to be a pretty good sampling of recent commercial Hollywood films (only a few clunkers) with a few cool semi-under- ground works like SidandNancy and the very slick Raising Arizona, both in early July. Pick up schedules in CC and make sure you have the right time and place. Also note that the price for Feds is now $2, but I wouldn’t get too offended as it was a buck for many years. Two loonies, big dea1. _

FILM NOTES: Basically its pretty low-key this term, as far as local film screenings go. According to Ian Uhde, Film Studies prof, there are pretty well no film courses this term. (If you hear of something, let me know.] However there has been a little action from the Fine Arts FiIm Society who have gotten their hands on some new films from the Embassy of Poland. I understand they are very high quality and worth the risk. The last one is tonight, Friday, (lots of notice, I know) at 7 in East Campus Hall, Screening Room 1220. Get a mem- bership for $3’and use it at future Film Society showings. They should be in full swing in September, perhaps coordinating with the WLU Film Club.

Speaking of Laurier, it:s pretty dead over there, Don’t expect any- thing from the Film Department, Film Society or Student Union until September. As you can see, I’ve been scratching for anything, and the Waterloo cultural dust bin is pretty dry. So what did I do? I scummed’s a job at the Princess. But don’t woiry, I won’t endanger my sacred trust as newspaper hack with a cheap case of conflict of interest.

As far as the repertory scene, the Gorge in Elora is chugging along and I hope to get out there by bike for a day. The big deal is the new cinema to open in Guelph. To be combined with an existing cafe and bookshop, this “entertainment complex” should do well, considering the large Guelph student population. Guelph is actually a pretty neato’*place, and I look forward to going out there.

FILM PICKS: Who Is That Man? tonight in ECH 1220, Princess: World Drums on Wednesday, The Sacrifice on next Friday, Manon all next week. Gorge: Good Morning Vietnam, Barfly and Koyaanie- qatsi all next week. .--. -

Imagine the indignation Woody Allen would feel if he had his Bergman Appreciation So- ciety dinner party crashed by the entire MTV crew, gushing, “Oh, wow, like t-his is so rad, I mean, we really love Art Bergman and Poisoned too, man,” and you get a feeling for the tone of The Soli- tary Outlaw. A certain amount of self-righteousness is almost inevitable given the subject mat- ter of the book - the iritellectual’s fall from grace in contemporary society - but to B. W. Powe’s [as everyone knows, a true intellec- tual has no given names, only in- itials) credit, The Solitary Outlaw never becomes insuffer- ably self-important.

Shorter essays deal with eva- soned critique of contemporary luations of novelist Elias Canet ti society.

Much has been made of our epoch being the post-modern age, but Powe, with varying de- grees of lucidity and reactionary outrage, ,defines the second half of the twentieth century as the post-literate age, an era ruled by mass culture and consumer-or- iented disposability. The book begins and ends with what seem to Powe to be nightmarish vi- sions of going-out-of-business sales in bookstores and huge bonfires of books. But these book-burnings are not a re- sponse to the subversive tenden- cies of literature - that would be for society to admit the power of literature, philosophy, and the like. Rather, they’re being burned because they’re per- ceived as useless; it’s like clear- ing one’s house of all its excess junk. Concentrated engagement with the written word has been replaced by a pervasive “musi- cality”, an inobtrusive Mtizak- like background hum that doesn’t let thought processes in- terfere with the daily business of making as much money as hu- manly possible and keeping abreast of all trends.

The bulk of The Solitary Outlaw is dedi- cated to the title essay, an appre- ciation of the much-maligned modernist, novelist, and essay- ist, Wyndham Lewis (no, not the guy who wrote Day of the Trif- fide).

In their bio sheet, David Itko the lead singer says he has “a certain feeJing of being over- whelmed by the elements out there.” I’11 have to agree. There’s so much happening out there it’s difficult to always, filter out the garbage. Luckily, I could still fil- ter out this garbage, When I put this album on the turntable and sat down to listen I soon forgot about it. It all tends to sound the same. Even my mother thought the music kind of lulled you to sleep, and was ultimately bor- ing.

Perhaps the only song that shows some potential is RIP Planet, The rest of the album would be great for insomniacs. There’s nothing horrible going on here, just nothing better than mediocrity. David Ilku says, “We’re all creative people. We’d die if we didn’t have that outl’et to be able to share and communi- cate a warm feeling.” Hmm. If that’s true World At A Glance is either dead or dying. They’re not communicating anything at all,

Unanswerable Lust makes an unfulfillable promise with its first song, Redneck. Sounds magazine picked it as a Single of the Week and praised it as “uni- que and near perfect.” I can’t argue there. But perhaps I am just not hip or cool enough to praise the rest of the album sim- ilarly.

The album isn’t bad: the mind behind Jerky Versions of the Dream, and the co-founder of the Buzzcocks and Magazine, couldn’t do anything that was that bad. Yet, I can’t help but feel that there was something lack- ing with Howard Devoto’s latest effort, and that of his newest col- laborator, Noko. It could ju+ be me; others seem to love this album. But the rest of the album lacks the hard-hitting and strik- ingly groovy sound.of Redneck. Sure, Public Highway is cool, and Rubbish is too, but they alone could not have guided my purchase as Redneck did.

In summation, if Devoto’s lust is music, the title of the album is a disappointing, but true, self- fulfilling prophecy.

Any band that only allows it- self to be photographed drinking Bud and surrounded by empty’, Bud cans either deserves a per- manent niche in the cool king- dom of hoserdom’, or just has abominable taste. Bud does taste like warmed-over mule piss, but I’m inclined to go with the former, Gang Green is a band of Beantowners that likes to “get hammered and be concerned with world issues concurrently” in the sagacious words of the press release.

Bodeans not by Don Kudo Imprint staff

The Bodeans have been hailed to be “the best club act on the continent,” and the band meinbers have stated they don’t want to leave the cosy confines of beer parlours for the ever-in- viting big bucks of stadium gigs. Clubland is their home, where band and audience can interact for the mutual enjoyment of both parties.

_ With this attitude and their homey country rock soirnd, the’ Bodeans seem like they’re a pretty down-to-earth bunch. No rock star egos here.

sang along and rocked my knee to their music, the Bodeans show‘ at Stages on May 5 produced lit- tle respect for this supposed un- pretentious group. They played for a mere hour after keeping the large crowd waiting for an hour ;rnd a half after Australia’s Wed- dings, Parties, Anything com-

The Bodeans sounded good but their live twang differeg lit- tle from their vinyl versions, The new material from Outside Looking In had tinges of Edge guitar licks, probably taken dur- ing their fall tour in the hands of U2, Certainly not very country, at least not one from this side of the ocean.

For a good country rockin’ time, I’d take Canada’s own Blue Rodeo, since they’re.a band [ap- pearing at Stages June 9) who can kick the Bodeans’ butts all the way back to Wisconsin as a better club act. La La La La Bamba, er, urn, Bodeans. photo by Scott Olrdmr

the Bodeans didn’t even attempt to personalize their stay in Kit- chener with any sort of extended vigour or between song chit- chat. Ok, “How yaaaa doin’ Kit- chener?” is a bit over used, but this gig was just a few thousand

more pesos in the pocket for them. Stepping on/kicking a+t a cameraman’s equipment for at- tempting to capture Sammy Lla- na’s high cheek bones was another downer for these good guys from Wisconsin. Besides Llana’s head probably wouldn’t have fit in the photo anyways.

This time, the policy lead to a frightful decision: on this tour they would try out new material, Again, fair enough, but they only played about twel-ve songs, if that, and at least four of them w&e new and unreleased.

Oil ,-burns war per minute

by John Hym8rB Imprint stuff

Peter Garret had broken his leg over a month ago in a surfing accident, so the story goes, forc- ing Midnight Oil’s sold-out To- ronto show to be postponed until Sunday, May 8. Garret is essen- tially a physical performer, so it was necessary for,him to recup- erate. The buckets of sweat that he was to shed that evening were testimony to his successful con- valescence.

Midnight Oil was outstand- ing. Fantastic. They exuded energy, naw’, they were energy. The close confines of the Concert Hall were pleasing to Garret, who made this known in both word and deed; he said he loved it and then he led the Oil’s in perhaps what was the best show those hailowed tialls have ever given shelter to.

They concentrated, quite . rightly, on Died And hat; wisely keeping the one-two

’ punch of the mellow Arctic World and the frantic War&ma intact, working in their fervent politicizing. But they drew from the past as well, playing Best of the Both Worlds among other Oil standards. As an encore, they chose Nick Lowe’s (What’s So Funny About] Peace, Love, And Understanding. Given their message and conviction, a better coda would have been hard to find. .

!R SPORTS Part 1 - The October Rev&,,don by Mike McGraw Imprint staff

This is the first of three orti- cles chronicling the plight of the University of Waterloo football program. The three-part feature will analyze the chuin of events beginning with the player rebel- lion in October, 1987 clnd ending with new head coach Dave “Tujfy” Knight’s 1988 rebuilding project.

Nothing was out of the ordi- nary as the Waterloo Warriors filed into the visitors’ locker room at halftime at Guelph on October 8, 1987. Trailing 33-R they were well on their way to a fifth consecutive loss for the sea- son, and 21st straight dating back to October 12,1984. Losing had become a way of life.

But this night, the Warriors were in for a very unordinary halftime talk. Bob McKillop, head coach since 1982, used no Xs and OS on the chalkboard-as he addressed his players that memorable Thursday night.

The first domino

McKillop told the team he was aware of a plot by a player or players trying to see him fired. He also announced his intention to find the culprit or culprits. Be- wildered and shocked, the War- riors returned to the field as the Gryphons rolled to a 48-8 slaughter. As would become evi- dent later, the first dominoe in a bizarre chain of events had fallen.

At a team meeting on Thanks- giving day, McKillop once again challenged those plotting against him to come forward with their concerns. In a move reminiscent of Mutiny On the Bounty, the players took matters into their own hands.

Asking all coaches to leave, the players held a secret vote, The results were overwhelming: 47 of 54 players voted for a coaching change, three were op- posed and four abstained. The next morning, team captains presented a petition signed by 48 team members to Dean of Stu- dents Ernie Lucy. The players wanted a change.

Yet this wasn’t the first visit Lucy received from Warrior foot- ball players. Two weeks prior to the Guelph game, several play- ers went straight to Lucy with their concerns regarding McKil- lop’s leadership. As the plot un- folded, this action became somewhat of an issue around campus.

“I had a number of football players come to me with a prob- lem,” Lucy said. “As dean of stu- dents, I talk to students all the time - it’s part of my job; They merely asked what they could do about it because they were un- happy with the program. I indi- cated they should go through the normal channels, but I also said that if a substantial number of people were unhappy, then I would see if icould do something about it,”

On October 13, team captains took him ufi on that offer. After receiving the petition, Lucy and Men’s Athletic Director Wally Delahey met with the captains to hear their side. Shortly after- ward, Lucy and Delahey held a meeting with McKillop, who vo-

luntarily resigned his position. With two games still remain-

ing on the Warriors schedule, confusion abounded. As most struggled to piece together the chaotic saga, one question lin- gered: who would coach the final two games? It was widely be- lieved if the Warriors didn’t meet their obligations to the schedule, the program would be termi- nated.

McKillop had the support of all but one of his fellow football coaches, and agreed to man the sidelines for the last two games. Badgered and hounded, McKil- lop refused to comment on the fiasco, maintaining he would speak only after the season ended,

McKillop’s two final attempts to break his three-year jinx were as successful as the previous 21. York trounced Waterloo 3847 on October 16. On a cold misera- ble day at Windsor a week later, the Warriors dropped their 23rd consecutive football game, 24-7. Things had always been rather gloomy with the program, but this time it had hit an all-time low. As the mud drenched team left the field that day, one had to wonder if it would be the last memory of Waterloo football. McKillop’s record at Waterloo had finished at 4-37-1.

Meanwhile, the local press blasted the players for their ac- tions. One writer even called,thF players “crybaby jocks,” who should stick to their academic pursuits. Captain Chris Maecker absorbed most of the heat as he acted as the players’ spokesman in the upheaval’s early stages. The players were even blamed for causing the end of the pro- gram, But October 26 was the day everybody involved had wa- ited for: the day McKillop spoke out.

A dreary day

The mood inside of Kuntz House at Labatt’s was as dreary as the rainy day outside. In a dimly lit room sat a somber McKillop, flanked by Delahey and Athletic Director Carl Totzke. Around them sat a hand- ful of media people, who them- selves looked downtrodden. It was like a group of relatives had gathered to mourn the passing of a loved one, or in this case, coach and program,

Although McKillop appeared drained from the previous three weeks, it didn’t dampen his bit- terness, In a three-page press re- lease, McKiilop slammed the players and university adminis- tration [Lucy) for their roles in the uprising.

“The involvement of the uni- versity administration for up to a month previous to my being told by an outside party is, in my opinion, a gross error in manage- ment procedure,” said McKillop.

“The manner in which the team chose to bring this issue forward and the deceit with which-it was carried out will be with me always. I have the ut- most respect for most 01 our players and would not, and in fact have not, publicly centred anyone out in a critical manner although there were plenty of opportunities after every game to do so.”

In a more memorable com- ment, McKillop, answering the

question of whether he held any animosity toward the players as a group, replied, “you don’t get kicked in the teeth and say than- k-you’.”

But McKillop raised an impor- tant issue regarding varsity at- hletic revolts.

“The fact that team members were advised and encouraged as how to proceed with their coup is of great concern as well. The real tragedy here is not the plight of Bob McKillop, it is the precedent that has been set for future player revolts on our university teams and how they will be handled by whoever they are presented to.”

McKillop was referring to the manner in which team captains bypassed him and the athletic administration and went di- rectly to Lucy with their gripes. He stated that at no time in his tenure as head coach “did Chris Maecker or any other captain ap- proach me or atiyone else in the athletic department with their stated concerns.”

Some worried that a danger- ous precedent had been estab- lished. Would disgruntled

’ players in the future be able band together, surpass athletic

I heads and have their demands ‘met? Lucy, didn’t see this as a problem. ’

He reiterated that he initially told the players to go through normal channels, adding, “I hardly call this instructing them to do anything,”

As to McKillop’s charges of mismanagement, Lucy retorted “rightly or wrongly, they felt if they went to the department heads they wouldn’t get any- where. The captains had been trying to resolve the problem for a long time, but without suc- cess.”

Lucy also expressed anger over the media’s portrayal of the players as conspirators or members of a coup.

“The players made an honest

effort to comDlain, and while they were gruhbling, they took no real action until the coach challenged them and asked what the problem was. They came back and said the reason was the coach. The players have been getting a bum rap. They didn’t get a petition going until McKil- lop challenged them. Reports de- picting the players as people scheming in the background are unfair. McKillop did it to him- self, he challenged the players.”

* “But this is wrong. I’ve dis- cussed the problem with the university president [Dotig Wright] and the program will continue.”

Former Federation of Stu- dents’ Athletic Commissioner . Shane Carmichael joined Lucy as an ardent optimist.

But as the hostilities and argu- ing became redundant, Lucy sug- gested the focus should switch from the locker room to the board room.

However, some weren’t so cer- tain there was a future to look forward to. That dreary day at Kuntz House, the questjon wasn’t who would coach the Warriors in 1988, but would there be a team to coach?

Program on the ropes

Delahey cautioned against any optimism, stating, “we have done submissions as to what we feel is required for the future, should we get these projections, we’re on-going, if we don’t, I don’t think we’re on-going. If we can get funds and the firm com- mitment for more than a year, then we’re going to go. But we have to decide whether to get on with the package - or forget it+”

The problem ran much deeper than player revolts and coaching records. For the program to con- tinue, serious upgrading would be needed in the areas of full- time coaches, facilities and re- cruiting programs. If the Warrior program was going to cease to be the OUAA’s longest running joke, mbney was needed.

Lucy never had any doubts about the program’s future.

“Some people say there isn’t going to be a program because of what the players did,” Lucy said-

“Considering that students pay for this program through at- hletic fees, we feel they have some say in the future of the pro- gram. The Federation of Stu- dents as well as a considerable number of students have indi- cated to me that the program should continue.”

As the somber group dispersed at Kuntz House, the final word from Delahey was that a decision on the program would be made before Christ- mas, So while the dust had settled on the now infamous Oc- tober Revolution, the program, depending on who you listened to, seemed in jeopardy.

But the events of October raised some important questions regarding the football program at Waterloo+ ones that had been neglected. Would a coaching change have come about if the players had not decided to rebel? The athletic department won’t say, but make it known they didn’t like the- circumstances under which they were eventu- ally forced to make a decision.

Why did McKillo ‘s record reach 4-35-Z before hp e was re- lieved of his duties? And more importantly, do university ath- letes have the right to join to- gether and usurp a coach if they are unhappy with his/her leader- ehip? Will this incident set a precedent for future revolts at this or any other ueiversity?

The questions are endless, but as October turned into No- vember, and Winter approached, there was a more important question. Would there ever be football again at the University of Waterloo?

Memories of basketball games past. by Refton Blair Imprint staff

For most sports fans, the ideal sporting event is that winning season or game, when it brings you a chill just thinking about it.

Ben Johnson’s display of sheer human explosiveness in crush- ing Carl Lewis last summer irl Rome was such an event.

Baseball addicts probably re- member the skid of the 87 Blue Jays, who lost to the Tigers in the final game of the season, blow- ing their seven-game lead. , For Warriors sports fans, the

basketball warriors gave them their share of treasured mo- ments during the 1987-88 sea- son.

Who among us can forget that numbingly cold windy day in mid-February when the youthful Warriors, led by their Larry Bird-cloned leader Ro.b Froeae, fought back from a 15 oint de- ficit to take the eventua Western f division winners, the Western Mustangs, to overtime before losing by two points?

This was a game comparable in intensity and play to any div- ision 1 NCAA game last season.

It was a nip-and-tuck affair, in which future CIAU All-Cana- dian John Stiefelmeyer dis- played his overwhelming talent by burying the Warriors with 27 points.

Yet this was not the first year the Warriors had been burned by individual talent. Four years ago, the York Yeomen came intd the PAC, having easily muscled their way through the East.

Their team was loaded with veteran players; John Chris- tensen, a national team try-out and All-Canadian; Mark Jones, a soon-to-be TSN sportscaster; and OUAA first team All-Star for the East, Tim Rider,

Our Warriors countered with such greats as Peter Savich, Paul Boyce, Randy Norris and then second-year player Rob Froese.

But the difference that day was the play of Jones who, in the second half, was hotter than a blow torch. What made his play even more surprising was that earlier that year, in the Mike Moser Memorial game, the same York team and Jones was disgraced by the Warriors, who won by 15 points in phi slamma jamma fashion.

On this day, IJoneS’ crafty play took away the Warrior guard po- sition and fkustrated the War- riors into missing uncontested shots,

Jones’ artistry was most evi- dent in his confidence when he went to the foul line in the se- cond half.

With the game tied and ‘he Warrior devotees, all 4000 plus of them, screaming cheers and (friendly) obscenities at him, he

---I Stiefelmeyer, Jones have burned the Warriors

sank both foul shots and then stole the in-bound pass, which pushed York up by four. This was a lead the Yeomen would never relinquish.

All these memories of the War- rior past have been provided to us through the coaching effort of IT-year head coach Don McCrae.

Since he joined the team in 1971, Coach McCrae has estab- lished such a successful pro- gram, he has become accustomed to players transferring to Water- loo just to get a chance to play in his program.

He has amassed an overall re- cord of 391 wins against 190 de- feats.

Coach McCrae has also been involved with the Canadian Women’s Olympic program- as head coach, highlighted by a fourth place finish in Los An- geles in 1984.

Over the past 17 years, the Warriors have made six visits to the CIAU championships, win- ning once in 1975, finishing third, in 1974,1978, and 1977, andlos- ing in the final game in 1983 and 1984.

In the OUAA, the Warriors have an impressive record of 157 victories against 47 defeats under McCrae.

Our Warriors have finished first in the West, ten of the past 17 years, with two second place finishes, not including this year’s finish.

Whether it’s 1977 (above) or 1988, the basketball rivalry between Waterloo and Western is fierce. Imprint file photo.

In McCrae’s time as Warrior’s coach, the closest he came to a losing league record was a 6-6 season in 1981-82.

Waterloo basketball. It is in his memory that the Mike Moser Memorial game is played every yegr.

Personally, Coach McCrae has garnered for himself two OUAA coach of-the year awards, in 1978 and 1980, and shared the award in 1985. He was also chosen CIAU coach of the year in 1985.

Some of the talent McCrae has come into contact with during his stay at Waterloo are accomp- lished basketball players in their own right.

His sudden death in the winter of 1975 meant more than the loss of a great player.

“(With) the way he went at things, everyone was touched by his life.” McCrae said last Janu- ary. “it was a real loss when he died.”

The team felt Moser’s loss so much they only introduced four of their five starters for the re- mainder of that season in Mos- er’s honour.

Any true Warrior basketball fan will have heard the name Mike Moser.

meant that he dominated the OUAA and CIAU at the time of

Moser’s basketball skills

He represents the optimum in his death. He received the CIAU

most valuable player award pos- thumously, and had the award named in his honour.

On the court Moser was a 6’8”, 195 lb, center/forward and a three-time CIAU first team All- Canadian.

In 1973-74, he led the country in points per. game, ‘and was se- cond in field goal percentage with a 63.3 average. He also av- eraged 35 minutes a game that season.

At the time of his death, he was one 6f the ple’yers picked to play for the Canadian national team.

In the two full seasons he

.spent with the Warriors, Mike Moser held sixteen of the eight- een individual records. And he led the team for three years, with his rebounding averaging 8.5, 12.1, and 12,5,

One player who followed in Moser’s shadow was guard/for- ward Seymour Hadwen, who played from 1975 to 1980.

He led the Warriors in scoring, was invited to the national team try-out for the 1976 Olympics, and was picked for the CIAU Al- l-Canadian second team in 1978.

Hadwen finished his career as one of the leading scorers in OUAA history, and went on to represent Great Britain in the Olympic qualifying rounds.

Steve Atkin, who spent only two seasons (1982-1984) with the Warriors after transferring from Calgary, followed Hadwen as the Warrior team leader, He was also an honourable mention All-Canadian,

The Warriors of 1980-1985 had a number of leaders. They went to four consecutive CIAU cham- pionships and three champion- ship games,

The success of this group of players - Randy Norris+ Peter Savich, Paul Boyce, and Rob Froese - gave the impression the Warriors had become a CIAU- basketball dynasty.

For the veteran Warrior coach though, there was no dynasty. *‘Because you cannot give out scholarships, every team will go in cycles,” McCrae said,

He felt fortunate his team has had three or four good cycles, and views the change-in- transfer rule as also influencing the success of teatis in the league.

The future of the Warrior pro- gram seemed in doubt at the be- ginning of last season, but by mid-season they had surprised

‘many. Coach McCrae is looking forward to the future, expecting to watch the growth of his young talent.
