Epp says Libern'-, will soon govern I by Rick Nigol Imprint Staff

The Liberal Party, with NDP support, will be called upon by the lieutenant-governor to form Ontario's government after a non- confidence vote. according to Waterloo North Liberal incumbent. - Herb Epp.

Interviewed by Imprint, Mr. Epp maintained that "the NDP can't do anything but support us." He believes that the New Democrats would look foolish supporting Frank Miller's minority Conservative government. "After-lambasting the government for so many years, how can they now support them?," heasks. Mr. Epp foresees a defeat of Miller's government when the new legislature votes on the throne'speech.

Recent comments by Ontario NDP leader Bob Rae lend credence to Mr. Epp's comments. After meetings between Liberal and NDP representatives last Monday in Toronto, Mr. Rae said his party is "committed to reform," and that he would like to see a "different kind of legislature than we've had in the past."

Mr. Epp refers to the May 2 election results as a "clear mandate for change." He notes that 62% voted against the Tories and that although the Conservatives won 52 seats, compared to the Liberals 48, the Liberals received 38% of the popular vote t o theTory's 37%. . In his own Waterloo North riding, Mr. Epp won by a margin of 7,000 votes.

Reflecting on the Tory decline and Liberal resurgence - they managed to gain 20 seats - Mr. Eoo oointed to what he felt was the

Liberal leader David Peterson. He also believes that Ontario voters did not want Conservative governments in both Ottawa and Toronto.

Although Mr. Epp expects W P support for a minority Liberal government, he says there is 'ho chance of a coalition government,'' whereby some of the 25 elected New Democrats would be given cabinet posts. ~ e ' s e e s "no benefit for Ontario" in such an arrangement.

Citing similarities in policy positions between Liberals and New Democrats - including equal pay for equal work, abolition of O H l P premiums And tougher environmental protection laws - Mr. Epp says the NDP should not have difficulties in backing his party in the legislature.

In reference to issues of particular concern to students, Mr. Epp said that he is in favour of ignoring Bovey Commission recommendations that students pay 25% of the cost of their education because "students are paying their fair share." He added that, in his opinion, Ontario universities were underfunded aad that he would like to see a $95 million increase in such funding. Mr. Epp also stated that "the government of Ontario is being dishonest by diverting federal money earmarked for post-secondary education into general revenue and using it in other programs.

In terms of summer student job progliims, Mr. Epp believes that governments are "more interested in grandstanding" than in designing programs that provide jobs. He said he would favour one or two programs that people could get used to rather than the Waterloo North MPP H e r b EPP

"StuBEnt r w s have been violated.'" says Ontario Federation af Students fieldworker Karl Hetu, who & s*t severa days ~nvestigating the Integrated Stu& situation. kk cited the r e f i h l by tbe administration to register two IS students - Drew MacGiUiway, ,ad A#& Abdel Auz - and the atbirrary removai of powers from* Operations Councd, which he says the university Senate granted i n 1975, a s the key issues. .

'Students are not just numbers, but human beings," says Mr. Hetu, and the refusal to register people who have complained a b u t the admtnistration's improper prwedure is "harassment and intimidation."

Both Mr. MacGiilivray arrd from registermg this term bec charges pressed by the university ltaa -*It of visits t o the campus whik on off terms. Mr. MacGiliiviay wasaccused of drunk and disorderly conduct, a c h a a e hedenier, and Mr. Abdel-Aziz was charged for "failing to leave ( IS. premms) when asked". Mr. AMel-Adz admits he failed to leave but argues that he had a right to be there. Both men say their prosecution is politically motivated because they spoke out against the IS budget cuts and other administration actfons against IS. Both a n due td appear in court June 19, and will be defended bv the Federation of Students' lawver. Tonv Keller.

This week In Halifax, the OFS is bringing the matter to the attention of the Canadian Federation of Students. OFS has already started a trust fund tci help IS students.

Mr. Hetu sees the IS problem as linked to the Bovey Commission~commendations which, if gnacted, wodd allow universtties to close programs and reeuce enrollment without b s b g government grant money. He fears that UW may be settipO an example of how to close programs apd silence studmtkwf;o complain. He says 1s coordinator Mr. Sheridan's cI-iti&ms of IS are "only statements without proof, only wwds & dbtroy, hurt and damage. But then's nothing to them."

Mr. Hetu said he was extremely impressed by the extensive organization and documentation et theu qq, which IS students have provided.

Integrated Studies is much calmer and more relaxed this week. IS coordinator Joe Sheridan, who had a second student arrested, and shut the program down for several days last month, has been told to “cool it” by U W vice-president Torn- Brzustowski, according to a well placed source in administration.

Two other sources have told the Imprint that Mr. Sheridan has had numerous consultations with U W’s lawyer, Reg Haney, about his attempts to prosecute students and about pending legal actions against the university as a result of some of his recent actions.

Although Mr. Sheridan continues to avoid IS Operations Council meetings, and conduct business in his office with the door locked, students feel that there will not likely be further arrests.

Contributing to the relaxation in tension is the submission last week of proposals for revisions in IS structures by both the coordinator and Operations Council. The two proposals are very different in character and both have been sent tothesenate Review Committee which will recommend solutions to IS’s troubles to Senate in June.

The Operations Council proposal has been circulated widely on campus -and suggests a second tier to IS government to be responsible for admissions, budget development, evaluation and discipline. These are the areas of the program’s operations which have been the centre of most controversv in Senate and administration. The second tier would be comprised of Faculty members appointed by Senate to the current Aacademic Board which supervises degrees, Resource People hired by the program, and students elected by Operations Council. It would have full responsibility for evaluating academic progress and share responsibility with Operations Council for budget a nd discipline through joint committees.

A faculty member who has seen the report, but wished his name not to be used, said Mr. Sheridan’s proposal “makes it the very worst of the traditional system without any of the safeguards other students have.” He said students in IS would be at the mercy of the coordinator and resource people, and that there is an absence of normal protections for the student against his own supervisors.

-

According to Linda Tranter, the IS rep on Federation Council and one of the authors of the report, the intention is to establish mechanisms which guarantee thorough accountability and responsibility, as well as student input. “We don’t think the previous system was irresponsible or dysfunctional,” she said, “but it should be clear to everyone that the membership of this new governing body makes it rmpossible to even suggest that it might be any less responsible than any other faculty council.”

T( Ms. Tranter notes that the lack of any faculty involvement in the IS government in the past left the program defenceless in the faculty dominated Senate. Anyone could make any accusation against the program they wanted, she said, and there was no way IS could challenge it. The additional faculty involvement should give the program better communication links, she said.

The proposal assures that all major decisions are made by groups of people, and subject to review by other groups such that no single individual is given unchecked power. This is very consistent with decision-making structures in other academic departments in which every centre of authority is counterbalanced by various checks.

Mr. Sheridan also submitted a proposal for changes to IS entitled The Next Fijieen Years. His nronosal is still secret. but IS students have been allowed to view the report by Academic Board members. Sheridan’s report describes student involvement in administration of the program as “obsolete” and makes no role for it in the future. It suggests elevating the status of coordinator by giving him a faculty position and places the administration of the program almost entirely in the hands of the coordinator and two full time resource people to be hired by the coordinator in conjunciton with the Academic Board. Students describe the proposal as “self- serving” and an attempt by Mr. Sheridan, who has no previous administrative experience, to carve out a secure niche for himself in the university at the expense of the program. They also point out that it will be considerably more costly to run the program in his model since an additional two full $ime people are called for.

Last fall the troubles in IS began when vice-president academic, Tom Brzustowski transferred powers long held by Operations Council to the program’s coordinator. Various allegations of of insufficient accountability and responsibility were made at that time and have been repeated by the administration and refuted by Operations Council. Since the fall IS has been run almost entirely by the coordinator in consultation with Dr. Brzuzstowski, and both have been reluctant to talk with students.

Mr. Sheridan, a former IS student, is one of four authors of an alumni statement on IS written in the late fall which stresses the mtral importance of student involvement and autonomy in IS. When he was appointed coordinator in January,. Mr. Sheridan attempted to “get council under control” by organizing a voting block of students and Resource People. His attempt failed and most IS students felt that Mr. Sheridan was trying to manipulate them, and had betrayed the democratic principles of the program. In his current proposal his idea of student involvement has changed from “essential” to “obsolete.”

Throughout the period he has stated that his opposition was led by a “few troublemakers”, students and Resource People. On his recommendation, all the Resource People he didn’t like are no longer employed by the program and two students have been banned from the program on Mr. Sheridan’s orders. Last Spring IS had seven part time faculty. Now it has only two.

According to Ms. Tranter, Mr. Sheridan’s mistake was that the “bad apple” theory of a few troublemakers was simply incorrect. She says the program has never been more united, responsible and reasonable. She said people are upset with Mr. Sheridan because he has lied to them and constantly kept them in the dark. “We’re paying this guy to be a liaison” she says, “but he never tells us anything.” She said students have been forced to conduct liaison with the university themselves, a process rendered especially difficult since the vice-president, Dr. Brzustowski, has been refusing to meet with them, and the IS files, needed for much of this work, have been locked up.

Students say they have had to spend a lot of time countering the’ negative impression of the program Mr. Sheridan has been leaving with Academic Board and Senate Review members. And since he has been refusing to tell them what’s going on in those grouns students have learned to find out for themselves.

In March, Mr. Sheridan was at a Council meeting and was asked by students to do his job of talking to various administrative groups for the program. At the meeting Mr. Sheridan said, “you go talk to them. I’m not going to talk to them for you.” Since that time students have been doing just that.

The result, according to Ms. Tranter, “is a tremendous learning experience.” She said direct discussions with the Academic Board and Review Committee are “clearing up a lot of misunderstandings.” She said response from faculty to the Operations Council submission has been “encouraging”.

No choice on booze? By Ann Marie Jackson Imprint staff

drinking rate is no higher than in the general population. Laws cited several reasons. “The feeling is that university students have the intelligence, drive, long term goals and socio-economic background - we would hope it (the drinking rate) would be lower because of this.” Peer pressure is the main element which prohibits choice, especially for those in residence where activities have “no other focus” for males - “particular- ly in engineering” - and for frosh, says Laws.

One workshop, for example, focused on energy requirements and I energy pl?nning. Parallels were made between energy planning for Third World countries and the planning that has taken place in Ontario during the 1970’s. l

“We need people who are sensitive economically and culturally to Third World issues,” according to Mr. Tony Lovink of the International Development Research Centre (IDRC). He expressed hope that the outcome of the conference on Third World development held at UW May 14-16, would be that “Canadian researchers and policymakers will give more attention to the problems of the Third World and recognize that the future of our “global” village is inextricably tied to the future masses of humanity in those countries.”

I However, if there’has been any opposition tothe position of Dean of Women, it has come from the UMV administration. One wonders if the administration reviews all the dean positions (as they have with this one) when each dean retires. Certainly not!

The brass knew of Ms. Marsden’s impending retirement for several months and yet it was not until two days before the retirement date that Ernie Lucy, Director of Employee and Student Services, produced his recommendation for the position of Dean of Women, as requested by Dr. Wright. In effect, women at UW are without a resource person who acts as a liaisonbetween students and the administration until the administration makes a final decision on whether or not to retain the position.

This demonstrates the lack of significance with which the administration views this position. Within Mr. Lucy’s report are the concerns of one dean: “He does no,t believe we should spend this amount of money in the Student Services area unless we are absolutely sure that this is the best way to use the money.“The truth is, however, that Ms. Marsden’s operating budget was practically nil and her salary certainly did not reflect the time and effort that she invested in her career at this/university.

The absurdity continues with male deans making

A small note here - this is not a joke. Slot has a kit to retail for $100, that gives kids all they need to do simple gene splicing; rupture of bacterium cells is accomplished with lysozyme, lINA pieces are purified with gel electrophoiesis and inserted into another bacterium with . -you guessed it - calcium chloride, or common road salt.

Slot, in his naievete’, says that such a kit could lead to great benefits for humanity because kids are “idealistic and creative,“. I \

Have you ever been struck by some scientific breakthrough that, to the best of your knowledge, you have never heard of before - in a miniscule article in the newspaper, right next to ads for tires and hair replacement centres? I know I have, and it’s damn disconcerting .

This is a phenomenon I like to call “creeping science”, and I’m fairly sure it’s peculiar to the 20th century -when Galileo discovered rings around Saturn, you don’t think they buried it in the back pages of the Genoa Standard, do you? Of course not - they arrested him and forced him to say he’d had too much rice wine that evening, and that was an appropriate kind of response.

A wonderful example of creeping science is provided by the case of a certain Larry Slot, who is, not surprisingly, a graduate student at MIT. Faced with the thorny problem of what to get his kids for Christmas, this over-educated ivory- tower type decides he wants to give them somethng “educational”. Does he go out and pick up a Speak-and- Spell at Radio Shack for $19.99? lie most certainly does not; he develops something called . . . wait for it . . . “Dr. I 4

Let me say that I think science is just great, and I’m sure these MIT lads are wonderful human beings, but I won’t be able to sleep a bloody wink knowing that Mrs. Bloodwort’s little vermin have one of these handy-dandy cloning kits. God only knows what kind of vicious slime is going to come crawling through my pipes at any moment.

Having recently read articles in the Imprint and the K-W Record cautioning students on rental problems, I was reminded of an incident two years ago which is still relevant.

Dear Tenants. December%, 1982

In a day and age when landlords have h&en reduced to mere caretakers of re,ntal property and tenants feel the rent they pay is too high, what can I say to you at Christmas time other than the rent is due J=anuary 1,1983, so please be organized. ~ ,

I am thankful to be in a business where I can provide a service to people, a service which is not only a luxury, but a necessity for everyone, whether it is a room renting for $30/week or a house for $12OO/month.

To be able to be of service to you brings me happiness, although sometimes when you call me at 11:OO’pm. and I have a headache, it may not appear to you to be so.

I am thankful that all of yonget along so well with each other. The cooperation among all of you with each other is superb.

As you each live your own unique life style I am thinking each of you has the right to live your own personal life style without externa interference.

My Grandfather was a farmer who ploughed fields in Waterloo County, He was also the Deacon of St.‘Iacob’s Mennonite Church. When he worked the fields-&e used to write poitry. May the poetry of nature be in us all as we’live and work in the city. As you look around you in your old house 01 apartment, the poetry or self-expression of the workers who handcrafted these dwellings is evident.

And as we look to God at Christmas, may we find him in each other Yours very truly, Terry Good

I’m disappointed that, we weren’t povided with enough~ heat - a service which is not a luxury but an hbsolute necessity in a city which can reach minus 20 or 30 degrees. . ,

Issue No. 1, Volume 26 Pppeared miraculously on the UW campus on Thursday, May ,2, with the triumphant’ proclamation: The Chevron resumes public&ion! In the article beneath, the nebulous members of the Club cite

Aocording ta the paper; “many students expiessed their disappointment when we SuspendecEpublicatian, for The Chevron had become ren.owned as a bastion of democratic stydent journtilism”. The article goes an ta gloat aver the -fact that a Globe and Mail article citing the paper’s demise was ‘fwishful thinking” on the part .of “reactionaries”.

In the future, The Chevron promises to uphold its principles of. “fighting for peace and sovereignty”, defending the democratic rights and freedoms of the people by opposing oppression and persecution”, and opposing “the militarization of the economy, the danger of imperialist war, and attacks On the democratic rights of

&he people.” . What this means in simple terms, of course, is that those

Pages are littered with phrases such as“imperialist war preparation?:, “persecution and+repressian of democratic p*plei3f’, %eactidnaries~~~ “f&&i& +%$&&Qfigitr$~, p “riis$&e‘ the rich pay”, “Imperialist ex#aitat.ion”; and sa.on.

By far the mast noticeable features of the paper ti first glance are: the profiisian af’wards‘ with the prefix “anti”, and theuse of the ward “people”at a rate of approximately once every fifth wprd.

, Friday, May 17 1985 ,-

by Matbew Ingram In Madrid for several days last week, Ronald Reagan

played the part of the President of the United States with hs usual aplomb - smiling into the footlights for “photo opportunities” - and pretending to be deep in thought as he-watched the oromrjter.

In talking to Snanish leaders, Reagan’s aides said he had decide> not- to focus on such-issues as Spain’s opposition to the U.S. presence in Nicaragua, or their desire to ~~11 out of NATO and close four U.S. air and naval bases in the countrv. Instead, Reagan planned to give a spee;h “praising Spain’s democratic progress”.

Meanwhile, protest “permits” were denied for the entirety of Reagan’s visit: Those in opposition to the visit stayed at home, turned out the lights, and banged pots and pans together. Reagan, staying in the 63 room El Pardo palace built by the fascist dictator Francisco France, was unable to hear the noise. Being 14 kilometers awav from Madrid, he was also nresumabiv unaware that those who did show up on the sireets in defiance of the permit order were treated to the usual sort of beatings, arrests, etcetera.

This is not say that the protesters were well-behaved bv any stretch of array of stones,

the imagination; there bottles and fire-bombs

was the usual on their part as

well: Nevertheless, the whole point of the matter is that all this was taking place while Reagan was praising the Spanish government for th

Increasinglv these davs, eir democratic progress. it seems that the President is

acting more-out of inertia than anything else. To be more precise, he is not really acting at all - except insotar as he is acting like a President. He reallv seems to be more manipuked, in the true sense of the word. In copies of the “photo opportunities” of Reagan walking through the lush El Pardo gardens, one can see the smudges where inept photo technicians tried to remove signs of the guy-wires attached to his limbs.

In fact, if one were to think about the incredible uproar over Reagan’s trip to Bitburg, it would seem that there is a tacit understanding not only among members of the media but Reagan’s aides as well, to present things as though Reagan actually made the decisions involved. When the reaction started, people began complaining directly to Reagan himself, as though the man had even a degree of control over the whole operation.

Now, the papers are congratulating him on the “graceful and composed” demeanor with which he carried out the wreath-laying ceremony, and the trip to the concentration camp. His speeches, they report, were moving and heartfelt with emotion. Why do they not compliment his aides and speechwriters ? If they really desired to ascribe any actual complimentary attributes to Reagan himself, why don’ t they compliment him on the refinement of his acting ability since the “Bonzo” and “Hellcats of the Navy” days?

Come on now, let’s be serious, if you lived in the U.S. and you went abroad, wouldn’t you feel embarassed to tell someone you voted for an aging hack actor who would be hard pressed to do an Alpo commercial without screwing it up? I’d be afraid Alan Funt of Candid Camera would appear and say: “Hey, let’s get serious, you didn’t really think he was the President, did you?”

WLU support To the editor:

On behalf of the students of WLU, I would like to extend to the students of UW our support in their efforts to maintain an “accord with the Truth” (Concodia Cum Veritate).

At Laurier, many of us have been watching with regret the development of the Integrated Studies “Academic Soap Opera” (Imprint, May 3: Michalenko). While it is not our place to interfere with internal matters at UW, Sonny Flanagan’s actions to represent his constituents must be applauded. The statements made by the Fed President (Imprint May 3) are not the words of a radical youth challenging authority for no apparent reason. They are the words of ageneration of students who want to work to make the system better.

The GSA resolution is another fine examnle of the new student approach: reasonable and fair re&esentation of students’ c-o-ncerns is a goal and a right. We iav for a service when we attend University, therefore, a protection of our interests in that service must be SuDDorted bv each of us.

In the recent past. students have &en less willing to work to improve the s<stem, seeminglv as a result of the-recessions’ - economic pressures. University administrators from the government on down have also felt this ninth and have been preoccupied with matters other than due representation. So, when w-e see our counterparts in student a ffairs taking on the large task of defending students’ rights, the effect of that effort across the Province (indeed, across-the street) is important and far reaching.

Best of luck in vour dealings with this delicate issue, Sonny. Your work, and that of the students willing to get involved is not a soap opera. In fact, it is an inspiration.- -

The truth is that your efforts are not going unnoticed. Matt Certosimo President Wilfrid Laurier University Student Union

Who-de-who-who?? To the editor:

Doug Thompson, in the simultaneous commentary the ever-impartial Imprint so graciously afforded him to my letter in the same last issue of Imprint, accuses me of dumping on students because of quotations I gave in my letter. He says I said students said it.

If he reads my letter carefully, he will note that I did not attribute those quotations to students, either

de-who-who? I find it curious that

Thompson would feel it necessary to fabricate new enemies for Integrated Studies where none exist, particularly when IS has so few friends left. Is it an obsession?

I will continue to defend IS even if Thompson accuses me of attacking IS and hope that he will eventually learn to distinguish between allies and opponents. Cheerfully, in the name of

registered or unregistered. Micah, - Think about it, Doug. Who else ,Greg Michalenko, could it be? Who indeed? Who- Man-Environment Studies.

0 year- old Mewsweek called the Americans fighting in

Nicaragua “Vietnam era mercenaries” and soldiers of I&print fnttaff

In 1979 President Anastasio Somoza fled Nicaragua, marking the end of a militaristic right wing regime largely responsible for continuing Nicaragua’s long history of agrarian poverty - a poverty existing alongside and in contrast with the proportionately tiny yet affluent urban elite.

The rift between the two classes was further widened when foreign aid sent to repair nation-wide damages in the wake of a 1972 earthquake found its way into the pockets of government officials and businessmen. The lack of activity that followed the award of reconstruction contracts typified the patronage and corruption dominating the Somoza regime.

Another factor contributing to Nicaragua’s poverty was the Somozan policy of attracting foreign investment with ridiculously cheap labour and resources, thereby leaving the largely rural population penniless and starving. With the overthrow of Somoza, and the advent of Sandanista rule, foreign business dollars were turned to military purposes in an effort to regain lost investment and restore a leader sympathetic to the American interests.

The campaign was directed largely from neighbouring Costa Rica, where former Somoza Guard.& National members and American advisors gathered at citrus farms along Nicaragua’s border. As the conflict intesified, there were increasingly frequent reports of Americans fighting alongside the “contras” and in 198 1, the ~dinis~ government released photos of three undeniably American bodies dressed inUS Army fatigues that had been stripped of insignia. The Carter

“misfortune”. The American Contras are both: men who seek the high pay and excitement of war, and men whose war with communism was born 20 years ago in the jungles of Vietnam.

Nick is one of these men. He is a tall, middle-aged man with wire rimmed glasses and a faded tattoo that says “Army”. In 1966 he landed at Danang, Republic of Vietnam, as a machine gunner with the newly formed Special forces, a unit recruited and trained as guerilla warfare specialists. Nick spent a total of four tours of duty in Vietnam before returning to the United States in 1972. He remained with the army, acting as an instructor at the Jungle Warfare School, a program created to prepare American soldiers for future wars

with guerilla forces operating in familiar terrain. Nick left the army in 1978 to spend time with his wife

in Ohio. Months later, bored, unemployed, and divorced, Nick answered an ad in a veteran’s publication seeking “foreign security officers”. He took the job, and late one October night he and three other Americans landed in a single-engined Cessna at a bulldozed airstrip outside Managua, Nicaragua.

.

They had been hired to train Somoza’s Guardia National, who had been sustaining heavy casualties in their war with a communist g’uerilla movement spearheaded by the Soviet backed Frente Sandinista Liberation National. When the Guardia was finally pushed into fierce street fighting in its cities, Somoza and his Cabinet fled

I do not believe anyone, anywhere, truly desires communism until the situation becomes so far gone that they will try anything* I: Nicaragua has traditionally been governed by people sympathetic if not directly linked to American/capitalist interests. It has never been a stable, or prosperous picture. M: Unfortunately, the Somozan government exploited capitalism to its ugliest ends, and there were always American businessmen happy to see it continued I: Does the presence of American combattants in Nicaragua not indicate the continuation of those interests? M: I would say, for the most part, the American citizens fighting in Nicaragua see themselves as communist fighters rather than capitalists. I: A large portion of your funding comes from private sector interests. Are -you not then responsible to them to a certain extent?

where is always a cost for fkeedomn

MZ That money comes from businessmen who lost considerable assets when the Sandinistas took power. I don’t think they wish to see the people in Nicaragua suffer. I: But they are willing to finance a war that has killed a lot of innocent citizens. l& There is always a cost for freedom. I: Perhaps too high a cost for many? l!& Unfortunately, that has been true in rnany countries where comntunism has taken root. I: Does it not seem inevitable in many underdeveloped countries that have little to offer the world market? lk Only when no one cares enough to oppose it. I: Wouldyoulike to see American troops committed to battle in Latin America? l& If properly trained, yes. I: Does this not evoke parallels to the Vietnam war to you?

M: Yes, it does. Again, the American public would rather allow the Soviets to scoop up defenceless countries rather than defending them. I: Many feel Nicaragua has been stabilized by the Sandinista government.

We% kick the Soviets back fgto

m: I have not aimed a weapon at anyone not wearing a communist uniform, or known to be a guerilla. I: If, ideally, both superpowers withdrew their influence in Nicaragua, what would be the result? 1p: A vacuum. I: The Nicaraguan people cannot govern themselves? M: Not presently. I: Then why hold an election? m: There would, of course, be support from America. I: Guns and tanks? M: An economy. I: Based on what? l!& Whatever can be established. I: Nicaragua has little to offer foreign markets. M: That could change. I: Many economists would disagree with that assessment. M: The issue is freedom here. I: At what cost? m: Any cost. I: L3sWn.g people cannot live on rights and privileges alone. M: No, but they can die without them. I: But there are concerned Americans? M: Yes. I: Mercenaries? M: Concerned Americans. I: That concern does not seem to be reflected in Congressional circles. M: It is no longer fashionable to fight wars. Nobody is willing to go out and fight anymore. I: Some people would say that is a good thing. M: In itself it is. Sadly, it has left borders wide open for other people who are willing to fight. I: How many connnunists are you willing to kill? M: (Laughs) All of them. I: Until? m: [Until] we kick the Soviets back into Russia. I: But these are Nicaraguans. M: On Soviet strings.

speaks out I: Instead of American strings? M: With American involvement, there was always hope for a change. I do not believe that hope exists any longer. I: After Nicaragua, what then? Cuba? M: Perhaps. I: This could be a long war. M: It already has been a long war. I: But you will not give inbecause youknow what is good for all countries?

“The Bbzis had some good ideas”

M: I know what is not good. I: I would say war is not good for any country. Mz It is a necessary evil. I: Do you think President Reagan’s recent embargoes on Nicaragua will accomplish the same thing? M: It is only an alternative now that military aid was vetoed by Congress. I: Does that not indicate something to you? Those men are representatives of the people. XZ As I said, no one wished to fight for what they believe in. I: It seems that both systems have enslaved the people to some extent, but the Sandanista government has been returning the wealth to the country, rather than squandering it to the highest bidder. . M: What Nicaragua needs most is money to develop and progress. I: You cannot feed farmers money. M: But you can purchase anything with money. I: That sentiment sounds rather like Hermann Goering’s “Guns and Butter” speech. I!& The Nazis had some good ideas. I: Would it be safe to compare American involvement in Latin America with Nazism? M: That would be stretching a point. I: But not too much? M: Like Stalinism and socialism. I: Is Manifest Destiny an excess of American . . adnunistrations? M: We do not seek to govern Nicaragua, simply liberate it. I: I am sure the Soviets would say much the same thing. M: Yes, just look at Poland. I: This is not, then, an issue of freedom as much as it is a locehzed struggle between east and west? M: In many ways, it comes down to that.

Feds plan Canada Day celebrations by Rick Nigel Imprint staff

A day of “music, fun and fireworks”, is how Creative Arts Board chairman Dave Lawson describes his plans for Canada Day (July 1) celebrations ori campus. Billed as “U W Hosts Canada Day ‘85,” the day’s festivities will include outdoor concerts on Village Green, a barbeque, kite flying, a parade, clowns, jugglers, face painters, and

culminate with a fireworks

Both the Federation of display on Columbia Field.

Students and the university administration have committed $1,000 to this project and Lawson has applied for a $6,000 grant from the Secretary of State’s office to cover major expenditures such as the fireworks and outdoor concerts. As well, UW has agreed to open all of the parking gates on campus for the

day, foregoing approximately $2,300 in potential revenue. Lawson also notes that the WLU student union has donated $250, but more’ importantly, they are contributing human resources.

Although the celebration emphasizes the participation of youth - in accord with International Youth Year - Lawson cautions that it is not just for 15 to 24 year olds. “My concept of youth is anyone who

feels young,” he says. Lawson hopes the event will be “a totally integrated community effort.”

If anyone is interested in helping out with organization, promotion, high school liaison, etc., or if more information is desired, Dave Lawson can be reached on campus at ext. 6329 or at 745-6946. Don’t hesitate as this is a major undertaking (Lawson is hoping for 10,000 to attend) and he notes that “time is of the essence.”

Manteca (MAN*TECH*AH) is a word that means lard, fat or butter in Spanish. It also happens to be the title of one of the first popular latin-based jazz tunes written by Dizzy Gillespie and Chano Pozo in the 1940’s.

Despite its etymological origins, the band of the same name plays music with nothing lardish or fatty about it. They proved this to a small but lively crowd of approximately 400 at Federation Hall Thursday, May 2, playing 2% hours of passionately danceable music.

Manteca, a Toronto-based group founded by percussionist Matt Zimbel and Bassist Henry Heillig in 1979, has two LP’s and one 12” dance single out, and has received acclaim in both North America and abroad as a world-class instrumental group. They have played at Jazz festivals in Montreal, Ottawa and Toronto, and were recently invited to the prestigious Montreux jazz Festival in Switzerland but were unable to attend.

The kind of music Manteca plays so well is difficult to describe. It is, in fact, a synthesis of a number of styles from a variety of cultures, most of which are themselves a blending of several influences. Some of the more identifiable styles include Salsa, Jazz, Funk, Calypso, and African rhythms.

The band is made up of nine members, all of whom have an abundance of talent and energy. They are: Matt Zimbel (percussion and congas), Henry Heillig (bass), Aaron Davis (keyboards), Herb Koffman (trumpet and flugelhorn), John Johnson (tenor, alto sax), Rick Tait (trumpet, flugel, synth), Art Avalos (timbales, percussion), Charlie Cooley (drums, Simmons) and Gary Boygon (tenor, soprano sax).

As a perusal of ‘the list will show, there is no guitarist, nor is there a lead singer (though Zimbel occasionally yells or makes jungle sounds out of sheer exuberance).

.Nevertheless, these components of the average band are not missed - this is most definitely not an average group. One would certainly not get the impression that the audience felt anything was lacking; the dance floor was filled to capacity for virtually the entire performance.

The musical tightness of these nine individuals, borne out by the performance, is evidenced by the fact that there were three live cuts on their last album, Strength in Numbers, and that the tape for the new album - due out sometime in August - was done live to half-track in just six hours in the studio. The musical spectrum that they encompass is also shown by the fact that the band plans a “New York City Tour”, in which they will play dates at a jazz club, a latin club, and a rock club.

Playing tunes such as Dainty Potatoes - a samba pattern from Brazil’s Carnivale during which people dance “naked in the streets, lose their American Express cards and don’t even care,” according to Zimbel - and the all- drums Fungus Amungus, with Zimbel leaping about on stage and in the audience, Manteca flawlessly- held the audience’s dancing and listening attention.

New wave folk a potent

These artists seem to come from a variety of backgrounds, and they have their own particular blend of styles and influences, but they all seem to be striving for an amalgamation of some of the concern of folk, some of the diversity and spontaneity of new wave, and frequently a healthy dose of the anger and frustration of punk. They play anything from minimalist keyboards to conga drums and modulated echo guitar, yet they all seem to have elements in common with each other - a common focus I tend to think of in terms of “new wave folk”.

Of Mud and Dreams

Ryerson Press, Toronto

Of Mud and Dreams chronicles the birth and development of the University of Waterloo during its first ten years of existence. It is an old book (copyright 1967), but in its pages are many facts that are still relevant today. And for anyone who likes to dig into the roots of the society and culture he is a part of, in particular this university, this book is a real find. (In this case, and accidental find while combing through the stacks in the Arts Library.)

the different aspects of the university that make up the book. So detailed is the book, however, that, like a proud mother boasting about her child, it would be quite boring unless you are Biated with the child or, in this case, university.

But there are many interesting passages between the covers. Did you know that at one time the University of Waterloo and Wilfrid Laurier University were to be the same university? Because of a dispute over who would control the Arts faculty, however, the amalgamation never occurred and two separate universities evolved.

The chronicle opens with a convocation procession. The author focuses on each of the groups marching in the procession - the students, representatives of the city councils of Kitchener and Waterloo, etc. - with comments and remarks that foreshadow the thoroughly detailed chapters of

During my first year at Waterloo (1980) I was uncomfortable with the way courses were geared to current trends in the market and I remember thinking that this place was more like a job factory than a place for academic study and research. When I read Of Mud and Dreams, however, I learned that the University of Waterloo was founded on the philosophy that “education is best accomplished when there is lively interaction

The Northwinds Folk Festival, to be held on the Toronto Islands June 21-23, has - from a glance at its promotional material - a staggering line-up of close to 50 performers and musicians whom the organizers refer to as both the “traditional and the new wave” of folk artists.

This is glaringly obvious

after a skim through some of the capsule biographies of the featured guests: Dave Van Ronk, a fixture in Green- which Village in the mid 60’s who helped shape Bob Dylan’s guitar style; Joe Hall and the Drift, a Toronto band headed by the irreverent and talented Joe; Jane Siberry, who has moved from doing acoustic guitar in Elora to synthesizer material all over

esis makes foti a good re between the academic community and the larger community which it serves.” That principle is the reason why the non- academic world figures so much in the University of Waterloo’s approach to education. It was, and as far as I know still is, a new concept of a university education.

On a less personal plane, there are also some interesting chapters on the students of Waterloo. One of the first pranks by students here was pulled by two engineers who painted “BEER” in big letters on the water tower just outside the university. Student government was set up in 1960 and its constitution was written in the fall of 1964. The major achievements of the Federation of Students up to 1967 include requesting and receiving the inclusion of students on the policy making committees of the university, and the establishment of counselling services and health services.

The chronicle ends by returning to the convocation recession. Scott reviews the many things he said about the university and summarizes by describing the Waterloo graduate as someone “conditioned to perform with excellence regardless of the handicaps which may confront or surround him” and who is “fully aware of the world around him.” The book is dated, but much of it is enlightening and helpful to understanding this university today.

Lang, the self-styled bizarre reincarnation of Patsy Cline; John Sebastian, ex-lead singer for the Lovin’ Spoonful featured at Woodstock in ‘69; Scott Merritt, another new wave folkie from Queen Street; Mose Scarlett, 20’s and 30’s blues master - and the list goes on.

Larry Gowan Strange Animal

CBS

by Harlon Davey Imprint staff

Larry Gowan is a strange animal indeed. No Canadian this side of Bryan Adams is getting as much attention these days. In a matter of months Gowan has gone from the university circuit (Fed Hall) to larger concert halls (Centre in the Square). His first single, Criminal Mind, is being followed with similar success by Strange Animal - the title track of his debut album.

With all this progress, I was expecting greatness from the album. My first impressions were, however, that someone at CBS really believed in Gowan, so they gave him money for a smartly

packaged album and the backing to make some slick videos, which these days sometimes means more than the music. But they take away the fine trappings of this album and all that you have is an ordinary offering.

I agree with the record -company, Gowan does have talent and he does deserve the attention and support that he has earned, but I’d like to hear him without the gloss and cosmetics. That is the real test of talent.

The production by David Trckle is very good and gives the album its uniformity. Gowan’s band also does a good job at backing him up. The songwriting unfortunate- ly lacks the sincerity that is necessary. Too many of the songs are similar and do not present any insights. Criminal

Mind is a good track, and a few others like Keeping The Tension On are noteworthy,

but instead of presenting a bold punch as had been expected, the album emits a dull murmur.

It will be interesting to see how Gowan follows this up, and how his style develops. I’m also interested as to how he will measure up in the States - supposedly the real acid test. I hope he does well, I like to see a Canadian other than Anne -Murray do well there.

Production strongly alludes to the Goldsmith/Cockburn values evident on Jane Siberry’s “No Borders Here” or Cockburn’s “The Trouble With Normal”. No accident here, because Marsh has become an invaluable fixture in Cockburn’s live line-up. Live, Hugh Marsh has been known to upstage Bruce with frenetic, electrifying solo work, but he seems to need the context of a songmaster like Bruce to pull off his most inspired licks.

Marsh’s best work on the 12” single is a half-cocked reminder of similar but better executed feats on “Inner City Front”. From the “Hooked On . . .” backbeat to Genesis- like horn jabs, the gimmicks make for a danceable mix that

is insipid save for its rhythmic colour. Hugh Marsh’s bow continues to slip into a groove

Various Artists London Sampler

PoIygram

by John Jongerius ’ According to Imprint’s

weekly listing of the top selling records at the Record Store, the London Sampler was the top selling album for the month of February.

The record is a collectionof 12 songs by various English groups at a phenomenal price of $2.48, The musicians represented on this collection are either on their way up in popularity (mostly due to

campus and FM radio play) or are new to the Canadian music scene; included are Bronski Beat, Blancmange, Bananarama, Kane Gang, Carmel, Dainties, and Junior and the Redskins.

These groups have provided the record companies in England with many top sellers. Polygram Records Canada is betting this sampler will help establish these groups here. The company is hoping that people will enjoy at least one of the groups enough to CJO

back to the store and purchase a full-priced record/tape.

For collectors and fans, the Blancmange’s “Feel Me - (live)” and Bananarama’s “Cairo” are previously unavailable on any. album. The London Sampler is also a limited edition album, only one pressing run was made.

Wanted, dead*or alive: ART by Harlan Davey and Andy Marshall

This is an appeal from Imprint’s Art Section for articles - as many as we can get. We feel that the more articles we can choose from each week, the greater the quality of cultural ,journalism you, our readers, will receive each week.

If, however, on the off-chance that we do become inundated with articles after this appeal, we’ll write again saying “STOP!”

However, allow one caveat, please: “quality” is a tricky word these days and, like any word, its meaning is relative both to its user and that to which it is applied. For example, it is more than likely that to each of you the concept of quality, or rather, degree of quality, differs substantially when it is used to refer to the “artistic” features of “fine” art, popular art, architectural works, journalism, literature, advertizing, or ) “creative” research (in whatever field). The same applies for creative actions or events (whether plumbing, line-work, dance, writing, writhing, cooking, cleaning (or smegmatics), sex, plagiarizing, partying or whatever . . . ). And, further, for each one of you, your quality assessment of any one of the above artistic features or events is likely to differ from your peers’ assessments. Granted.

In the Arts Section, we would like to concentrate more on the validity of each work given us rather than the “individualities” which will exist simultaneously and with equal weight in each and every article that will be submitted. Further, as artistic features (or “qualities”) in the long list of human (or

cultural) activities that we’ve just listed, these features give each of the objects or events in which they reside at least one constituent element which is “art” (“Life’s like that.“, Reader’s Digest, any issue.) In fact, you might say that there is no hurnan activity which does not have some artistic element or part.

We want your parts! - the so-called artistic ones. And please note a few other things:

1) We are here referring to “art” in the broad sense. 2) Often, the “neophyte” has a fresher, or less-biased,

outlook that the “seasoned pro”. 3) If you can say the same thing in fewer words than more

(and bigger) words, then your reader will be less likely to be distracted from your words and, furthermore, a greater variety of opinions can be presented.

But we do want to hear your opinions on anything to do with art in the broadest sense of the word and how YOU view it, objectively, or non-objectively, or both-

Something you might keep in mind is that this year has been labelled by the United Nations as “International Youth Year”, of “I.Y.Y.” (pronounced, Eye-Why-Why). But please take the existence of I.Y.Y. as information, not as a limitation.

Thanx for your attention, and we’re hoping to hear from you (and read you), whether student or not.

Waterloo hosts swordsmen \

Etobicoke dominates

by Vijay Prasad Fencing, a sport dating back to the 16th

century is finding new life at UW. In early March of this year Waterloo hosted its first fencing tournament in over a decade. For the spring term, the Waterloo Fencing Club, in conjunction with the Ontario Fencing Association, hosted the finals of the participation circuit for the 1984-85 season. The competition took place at the Physical Activities Complex on Saturday, May 4.

Spectators had the opportunity to view the diversity of a 3 weapons competition, as well as the up-and-coming fencers Ontario has to offer. The main gym in the PAC appeared to

take on an anachronistic visage as six pistes (fencing areas) were laid out. Electric machines for scoring dotted the gym floor, and their respective cords snaked around competitors and spectators.

The set-up was perfect for the foil, epee, and sabre championships that ensued. Foil was fenced by both men and women in their respective categories. The winner of men’s foil was James Ireland of the University of Ottawa, Excalubur Fencing Club. Second and third places were held by Steven Gavard, Niagara Swordsmen, and Brian Clark of Ryerson respectively.

The women’s foil was keenly competitive with the ladies attempting to gain a wildcard to the National Championships to be held in Ottawa. The winner was Christine Bozek of Etobicoke Fencing Club (EFC). Cassie Girard of EFC was second, losing a closely

fought match to Miss Bozek, 10-8. Third place was won by Catherine Pye of EFC

In men’s epee competition, George Krupka of the EFC showed more than his usual finesse and timing to take first place. Krupka is proving himself to be a graceful newcomer to Canadian fencing.

He is presently the Ontario Provincial champion for epee, having won in St. Catherines at the Winter Games. Second place was won by Bob Spear of the London Fencing Club. Mr. Spear put on an elegant display in another exciting final match. In third place was Aaron Zorn of the University of Toronto Fencing Club.

Match keenly competitive

Sabre fencing is becoming more competitive in Ontario, largely due to the exceptional coaching provided by Marion Sakrezewski of the Etobicoke Fencing Club, now the coach of the national sabre team. Not surprisingly, first place in the Sabre category was won by John Makele (EFC) and second place by Paul Emerton of the Hamilton Fencing Club. Eddie Chee took third place with a victory over Scott Collings of EFC. Eddie Chee is a familiar face to university fencing, having contested OUAA sabre for the University of Toronto.

The fencing club at Waterloo looks forward to hosting further tournaments on campus over the coming year to provide club fencers with competition, community

and the university with access to this visually

exciting sport.
