It will cost you four dollars more to be a student next year.

Federation of Students fees were raised four dollars to $22 by Stu- dent Council on Monday night--and you’ll pay at registration on top of your tuition, athletics and health- services fees.

The vote Monday was 10 in favor, four against and five abstentions.

The budget is the largest in Stu- dent Council’s history. $228,063 is the total cash flow for 1967-68, com- pared to $153,493 last year.

On March 19 Council had pass4 the budget and raised the fees from $18 t0 $20 but the increase was not enough.

Council also gave final approval to the budget Monday--ten for, four against and four abstentions.

“‘We made a basic error in our income calculation,” said treasurer ROSS McKenzie on Monday. “Half the CO-op students are on campus two terms in a fiscal year while the other half is on only one. We only collect three-quarters the a- mount of fees we would collect from the same number of regular stud- ents (who are on campus two of the three terms .)‘*

“To correct for this we had to raise the fees another two dollars to $22,” said McKenzie. The fee is still lower than most other Ontario universities.

The first calculations had as- sumed all of the 71000student en- rollment expected in September would be on campus two terms each,

Councils in previous years had not been faced with this problem, since they worked out their budgets in October, when the income was already known. This is the first time a Council budget has been fin- alized before summer.

At the March 19 meeting there was a long debate on whether the fees should be raised or whether students should pay for individual benefits.

The increased income is neces- sary because the budget is tight and the contingency fund--for unforseen expenses --was extremely low be- cause of a $5,000 debt incurred by the 1966-67 Council.

Peter Fried, grad rep, suggested a nominal fee for the campus dir- ectory as a way of increasing in- come, but this was rejected.

John Shiry, board of publications chairman, said that things all stu- dents benefited from should come out of the Federation fee and that the fee should be raised.

Several other exec meinbers ur- ged a fee raise.

“Services like the directory should be given away,” said Stew- art Saxe, chairman of the board of external relations.

“There would be no problem in justifying a fee increase to the board of governors.” Helping the student-activities board to keep ticket prices down would be one good reason, he said.

All fee raises must be approved by the university’s board of gover- nors.

“I tend to think we could have a surplus for the next Council if we raise fees A two-dollar increase should carry us for three to five years ,” said John Willms, student activities chairman.

‘V e just can’t get enough income from other sources to meet our

need ,” said Patterson. We’ll probably use some of thesurplus as it is.”

As soon as the fee raise was passed, Willms asked for $9500 of the extra to subsidize Winterland, homecoming, and Grad Ball.

Peter Benedict, grad rep, said that all the extra money should be left in the contingency fund until Council has time to consider such requests. After more protest Willrns admitted he had been hasty in his request and lowered it to $50- 500.

Council rejected this also be- cause it wanted time to see budgets for these items and consider re- quests for money from the contin- gency in this light.

Treasurer McKenzie said after the Monday meeting that no further requests for student-activities sub- sidies would be made at this time. “The weekends will operate on a break-even basis. If subsidies are strongly justified in a complete budget the board of student activi- ties will bring requests to Council before anyweekend,“hesaid. “This is one of the reasons for a large contingency fund .”

Other reasons are themovetothe campus center s Tenth-Anniversary Week (of the university), an educa- tion program, and the $5,000 debt.

Mike Sheppard, St. Jerome’s rep, presented his film-production bud- get to both meetings.

In an amendment at the March 19 meeting he asked for a $2,000 grant to produce two short films under the creative-arts board.

It was defeated because no pre- paration had been done and the budget had not gone through the creative-arts board.

On Monday Sheppard moved that $2,000 be set aside from the con- tingency fund for the Film Produc- tion Company, a new club on cam- pus open to anyone.

The money will be allocated only when the budget, scripts and shmt- ing time have been justified, said the motion.

Sheppard said the new company would choose the scripts--one for fall shooting and one for winter-- and the directors. The formation of the company overcomes the pro- blem of only himself having the chance to produce films.

This motion and another asking the university to hire a professional consultant for the film were pass- ed unanimously.

There were several other mo- tions Monday asking for money from contingency fund:

Bookstore prices down 15% Books will cost 15 percent less at

the university bookstore starting July 1, according to the long-await- ed ancillary-enterprises report.

Tom Patterson, one of the stud- ents appointed to the university president’s special committee on ancillary enterprises after las t No- vember ‘s bookstore sit-in, an- nounced this to Student Council Monday night.

Bookstore profits were used to make up losses in other ancillary operations--athletics, food servic- es ) residence, and health services o

“Effective July 1 it is reccom- mended that the bookstore operate to gain a margin of 3.2 percent,” said Patterson. “The markup on books and mandatory supplies will be approximately 10 percent--as opposed to a present average of 30.9 percent .” The decrease on selling price is about 15 percent.

He said the markup would cover the cost of running the store and the move to the new store in the food-services building.

The committee report also rec- ommends no more special discount and privileges for faculty and staff unless they apply to students as well.

Another of the important recom- rnendations of the committee, said Patterson, is that each ancillary en- terprise be a self-sustaining unit.

“The deficit in any one enterprise should be made up by that enterprise the next year,” he said.

A committee is to be set up to recommend to President Hagey what should be done with the surplus from any one enterprise.”

The committee will include five administration members, one from the athletic directorate, one from the colleges, faculty members and three students.

The recommendations of the com- mittee on student in residence , one graduate student, and one “other” student all to be chosen by theFed- eration.

Other recommendations concern- ing the bookstore were restricting

its facilities to students, faculty and staff of the University of Waterloo and leavingthepresent refund policy intact.

Patterson told Council that al- though things got off to a slow start after the successful sit-in, thesuc- cess of the committee showed that greater cooperation with the admin- istration has advantages. ,

Council moved a vote of thanks to Patterson and Dave Andres, the other student on the committee, for their successful work in getting prices lowered.

University president J. G. Hagey, when he recei:red the report March 15, was pleas& with its thorough- ness a He congratulated and thanked the committee for its work.

The committee recommended visiting hours Friday and Saturday from noon to 2 a.m.; Sunday noon to 8; weekdays 4 to 8.

Tired of Larry Shannon and the boys ? Tune to 1590 and you might pick up a station with no commer- cials, no editorializing--just great music.

Some ambitious Villagers in the East quadrant are operating a pirate radio station on a tenth of a watt. As yet the producers have no broad- casting schedule and have to keep changing channels to get a dear one.

When asked the reason for thepi- rate station, the operator said, “Be- cause the university didn’t get a transmitter and because CHYM is such a lousy station.”

For that student who had to make a big stink in September ‘66 to get a clean blanket after “who knows” had used it all summer: any new student who moves in will now get a clean blanket within a week.

LETTERS@%= Even Martians want to

come to the Village

To the editor: I think that I have found the ans-

wer to one of the two most. asked questions in the ViIlage. Theseare, of course, “Where do the girls who live in the Village cOme from?” and ‘where does our food come f r3m ?”

Recently, while carefully navi- gating back to my room from a party, I heard a high, screaming sound above me. I looked up and lo and behold, what I can only call a flying saucer came skimming down to land near the great hall.

I felt, of course, that my state of inebriation and induced a l-&u: cination. But, as I had my trusty Polaroid with me, I snapped a pic- ture of the flying body. I was (when I developed the film the next morning) surprised to find that there was actually a picture of the shining body.

I can offer an explanation which might satisfy the science-minded sceptics. At the party, I had acci- dentally spilled beer on the cam- era. Perhaps, for that reason, it was as intoxicated as I was, and therefore saw what I did.

If hat does not agree with the recognized theories of photogr apby l

I’m sorry, but I can offer nofurther explanation.

Beanies for f rosh

despite headlines

To the editor: Due to the severe criticism which

Orientation 67 has received as a result of your front-page article (“Beanies stay off fresh’* Mar. lo), I feel the situation needs clarifica- tion.

Regardless of your headlines, the Frosh will have beanies next year. The committee motiondeclared that it would not buy beanies as in the past. Rather the fr,osh are to make their own beanies, subject to cer- tain inst:ructions from the orienta- tion conlmittee, to be sent out in the pr e-ma il.

Steire Russell president of Engin- eeril;lg Society A, states that orien- rati fees have been raised from $5 to $A 0. The fees have not yet been set. 4 ceiling of $10 was set but

this in no way means that the fees will reach the $10 level.

RusselI also states that the frosh are not getting their money’s worth. Without a final budget or a set fee for the froshthereis no justification for his statement.

Russell’s criticism of Stewart Saxe’s handling of orientation is en- tirely unjust. Themeetings areopen and have all been well publicized in the Chevron. At the meetings Saxe states his views the same as anyone else and, when needed, a vote is ta- ken. I assure Russell that Saxe in no way intimidates the committee members to vote the way he wishes them to.

A step the wrong way It seems that every campus news-

paper in Canada must at-least once every year write an editorial about Student Council interference. It’s too bad, but here we go.

It’s ridiculous for a government to run a newspaper that’s supposed to be a voice independent enough to criticize that government.

The student government here realized this several years ago. To keep the Waterloo student press free of Council interference, it created a board of pub- lications,

It is the job of the board of publica- tion to act as a buffer between the government and the press. It is the job of the board of publications to hire and fire the editor-in-chief of the Chevron.

The board of publications is the publisher of the Chevron, says the board of pub- lications bylaws (echoed in the Chevron masthead at the bottom of this page every week).

On Monday night, however, Council chose to vitiate this. They insisted on grilling the editor the board of publica- tions had already appointed.

The Monday session was amicable, we’ll concede. But that’s no guarantee it will be next year.

Before then, gentlemen of the Council, decide firmly that you’re going to con- tinue to leave the press alone as you have in the past. There was no need to question your own board. What’s it there for anyway, if not to keep you and us at a respectable distance?

Putting the press to bed If you’ve bought your Chevron binder

(advt. for Campus Shop: $2.19), it’s pretty fat by now. This issue finishes off volume 7 - with a record 30 issues and 386 pages.

This year has seen better coverage of campus news - and more of it. Next year we hope for further expansion - at least a page of cross-Canada campus news and more depth and human interest stories at home. This year for the first

Past-presided Sheppard sums up, looks ahea The Chevron sent out veteran

council reporter Dale Martin to sum up the year. He came back with this interview with past- president Mike Sheppard.

in Council was starting right off at the beginning of the year to attempt to pass the universal-accessability resolution without giving a monthor so beforehand to put forth the idea. To bring it on people cold was a mistake--people didn’t really have time to think about it.

Were you always an activist or did it grow on you?

I suppose you could say it grew on me, more than anything else. I always had inclinations in that dir- ection but never reaIly began toac- tually formulate. ideas or p~l.icieS until over the summer and particu- larly at the CUS congress.

Looking back on last year, what was your biggest mistake?

The biggest mistake as far as getting across actions and policies

If the universal-accessability referendum had failed, would you have resigned?

If it had failed totally, yes I would have. The unfortunate thing about this is that when it was re- ported in the press, it was taken by a lot of people as some kind of threat, which of course it wasn’t.

First of all, as far asparliamen- tar-y procedure goes, having been defeated on a ma jar issue, it is tra-

However it was actually two p0h-X~ ' passed and one defeated and theac- tual results of the referendumwere vague and Council interpreted the referendum in a way that was ac- ceptable to me so I stayed on. Do you think Council did the right thing in avoiding a show- down on student representation on the board of governors?

Council that came in from the sandbox by Dale Martin

- - finally reached a point where they had representation on a committee which was going somewhere.

- ---- ------- strong activist note. The decision of Council members to support the SUPA draft-resistance movement was not likely taken.

After much long and hard debate, Council showed itself to be in favor of providing limited aid to Ameri- cans seeking asylum in Canada in the form of immigration information mostly. This move, of which many students were critical, was arrived at after much careful thought by Councillors.

This was the year that Student Council put away the sandbox. This was the year Council took its ac- tivist swing and ceased to be a glor- ified dance committee.

NO one returning to thecampus in September expected Council to bje dealing with real issues.

In fact, for a little while it looked as if it was business as usual. The bus service was started and the campus center was underway, but no issues had immerged. Theclos- est thing to activism was the ‘De- claration of the Canadian student’, but everyone thought that was just a motherhood issue.

At the same time, Council decid- ed to take a good look at itself, and formed the “omnibus” committee under Bob Cavanagh to look into the way Council is organized.By a great deal of hard work Cavanagh pro- duced a number of reports which will have far-reaching effects onstudent government.

October brought with it the great universal-accessibility debate. Here at last was a real issue that Council members could act upon. Although the idea of universal ac- cessibility to higher education fail- ed in Council and was mangled in the ensuing referendum, the right issues were being talked about.

Tom Patterson, students were able to force unheard-of concessions from the administration. Student representatives were appointed to serve on the ancilliary services committee of the university. The first skirmish had been won.

Then came the bookstore strike. The administration never expected to see the day when students would

For that reason I think the de- cision to actually open the board of governors senate and should have been made before the report of the study committee was brought down.

That’s why I wish Council had gone along with it. They did& but perhaps something was achieved anyway in that perhaps it’s got a few people thinking and worrying a- bout the problem in the administra- tion. Was there anything that Council should have done that it didn’t do?

There are lots of things that should be done, that never do be- cause of lack of time and lack of people, etcetera.

It’s hard to nail it down to speci- fics but I could cover it in the gen- eral phrase of a failure to get a- cross to the average student ex- actly what Council was up to, and exactly what direction it was trying to take. There was a new direction this year, different from any other year, and there was a failure to get this across to the student, but that is a failure of most university student councils.

Was last year’s Council a good Council?

They were as a whole a good councu. Like an:1 council you get some deadwood, people who simply don’t do anything. At times, from my own personal point of view, they were a little reactionary and a little hit conservative but I think they’ve been far better than any other council we”ve ever had. This is the first council that*s ever tak- en a real concern in the major is- sues of the day that affect students. What would you like to see the new Council do?

Probably the thing that I’d like to see it do most is to find a way to make all the students aware of what it is trying to do and to try to get them activated to back up council on major policy issues.

to act to reform society

The policy issue that I’d like to see them deal with, would be to do something about university govern- ment, because from what I can see the problems of the university are for the most part just reflections of the problems of society as a whole. But I think that if we canbeginto reform within the university, it can act as a sort of counter-community and get people coming out of this counter-communitv who will be able
