Liquor license likely

Lounge may open in Septemberby Brian K. Hackett

President Phil Turvey called thefirst meeting of the newly-electedStudent's Administrative Councillast Thursday. Former VPFinance Steve Dineley announcedthe SAC financial situation for thepast year was very there

would be a surplus as budgeted inSeptember.

VP Executive Rick Cropleyinformed the members of theprogress which has been made inregards to obtaining a liquorlicense for the university. Adelegation consisting of Cliff

Bilyea, Fred Nichols, SACBusiness Manager Carl Arnold,and Cropley have met withgovernment in apreliminary hearing to discuss thedetails of the proposed licensingplan. If the license is obtained theSUB Ballroom, Concourse, Let-terman's Lounge, Mezzanine andCentral Hall will be the areaswhere liquor can be served.

SAC has worked out a LiquorLicense Agreement with theuniversity. This was necessarybecause the license will be held inthe university's name, althoughthey will not be responsible forlosses and SAC will receive profitsgenerated. The lounge will operateon a part-time basis, ie., forseveral hours per day, Mondaythrough Friday, for at least theinitial year. Cropley said hebelieved the chances of the loungebeginning operation in Septemberlook good at this time.

A number of importantratifications were made at the

meeting. The new Director ofStudent Activities will be MaryLouise Wittig, a third yearBusiness student. When questionedas to her qualifications for thepositionWittig replied that she hadorganized this year's Boar's Headdinner and she "goes to the pubs."She would like to see a fast start tothe activities next year and plansto initiatea change in the means ofcommunication between SAC andthe student body.

Mark Fletcher was ratified asthe new VP Finance. He has hadexperience this year working withPhil Turvey as the BusinessManager for Radio Laurier andplans to spend some time workingon thefinancial aspects of the SACoperation. He is presently in thirdyear Business.

With Turvey's resignation asRadio Laurier Station Manager toenable him to contest thepresidency, Program Manager,Jack Stuemple, was presented forratification as the new Station

Manager. Stuemple has spent agreat deal of time improving theRadio Laurier programming thisyear and solidifying contacts withthe record companies.

The final item of business wasthe formulation of a system forelecting the two students reps tothe Board of Governors. RepWarren Howard suggested anAdvisory Committee be formed tointerview applicants for theposition. The committee willconsist of Turvey and two as yetunnamed SAC representatives.JeffSeymour, who still has a yearto serve as a student represen-tative on the Board of Governors,will act as an advisor. In the finalanalysis, however, it will beTurvey who will make the decisionand selection of a candidate andpresent him or her to the Councilfor ratification.

The meeting was concluded withthe announcement that theExecutive was anxious to holdseveral more meetings before theSummer holiday.

Students boycottat ConestogaKITCHENER, Ont., (CUP)—Aboycott of classes by students atConestoga College began March 18toprotest an administration firing.

Burt Henderson, chairperson ofthe college's communications anddesign division, was suspendedMarch 4, the beginning of thecollege's mid-winter break, andfired three days later.

More than half the 350 studentsin the division are boycottingclasses and demanding Hen-derson's reinstatement.

A "reprimand" of Henderson forhis supposed instigation ofdisruptive student activities wasrecommended in a 300 page reporton the college prepared by ArthurPorter, a University of Torontoindustrial relations instructor.

The disruptive student activitiesoccurred in October when studentsin Conestoga's communicationsand design division staged a twoday boycott of liberal studies.

The boycott ended with a ten-tative agreement from the ad-ministration that there would be noincrease in liberal studies contentof communications and designstudies programs.

The students' action apparentlyaroused the college's faculty.Eighty percent of them signed apetition to Ontario premierWilliam Davis calling for aninquiry into Conestoga's fallingenrollments and 'mis-management'.

In due course Porter was ap-pointed to investigate.

The Porter Report calls for "onein four classes for the betterment

of yourspirit", or a liberal studiescontent of 25 percent.

One prominent member of thecollege's administration has ad-mitted that Porter's, excuse formore liberal studies is "patenthogwash". One of Porter'sspecialties is cost efficiency, hesaid; more liberal studies and lesstechnical and professional courseswill mean a lower per student costfor the college. \

A liberal studies content of 25percent. would be double thepresent load. That's in directviolation of the agreementstudents won in the fall, and so thePorter Report recommended areprimand of Henderson, a sup-posed instigator of the studentaction.

The college's Board of Gover-nors reprimanded Henderson bysuspending him, then followed itup by firing him.

For more than a week followingthe firing students met with theadministration in an attempt tohave them reverse the decision,but without success. Dean AlexBrown would only tell the studentsthat the firing had nothing to dowith the Porter Report and thatHenderson had appealed thedecision.

The administration refused tosay why Henderson was fired.

The communication and designstudents plan to continue theboycott until March 21, pendingaction by the administration, Astudent meeting will then be heldto plan further action.

Justice, Chilean styleBRASILIA, Brazil (CUPD—Leaders of the elected govern-ment of Chile will continue to beheld in prison without trial.

This wasannounced March 16byGeneral Augusto Pinochet, head ofthe military junta which over-threw the government and seizedpower in Chile last September.

Pinochet made the statementwhile attending a meeting of LatinAmerica's military dictators inBrazil's capital city. The meetingcoincided with the inauguration ofErnesto Geisel, the new presidentof Brazil's military government.

People in Chile may be arrestedand imprisoned without beingcharged and without being broughtto trail under the terms of a stateof siege imposed by the junta.

The military commandersoriginally declared the state ofsiege after their Sept. 11 coupthat ousted the elected govern-ment headed by Salvador Allende.The junta has now extended thestate of siege for another sixmonths.

Among the prisoners being held

without trial are Orlando Letelier,foreign minister and formerambassador to the United States;Luis Corvalan, former head of thenow-outlawed Chilean CommunistParty; and Daniel Vergara, under-secretary of the interior.

They are among 40,000 prisonersbeing held in jails all over Chile,according to Chilean studentleader Fernando Martinez.

At least two officials in theAllende government have died inprison. They are Jose Toha,defence minister, and Air ForceGeneral Alberto Bachelet, formerdistribution chief. /

Pinochet said trials of politicalprisoners will be held "in a while,after emotions calm down."

"There will be economic as wellas political charges against the

"defendants, because they con-tributed in great part to the crisisChile is now facing," he said.

Chile's inflationrate is currentlyrunning at 1200 per cent. Themaximum inflation rate under theAllende government was 300 percent.

Negotiations concluded,Business reps elected

byDave SchultzAfter extensive negotiations

over the last three months, thestudents and faculty of theDepartment of Business havefinalized the nature and scope ofstudent* input on various depart-ment councils. A task force report,drafted by three students andthree faculty members has beeaaccepted by the remaining facultymembers of the department, andby the students.

Discussions between the facultyand students began in Januarywhen it was learned by studentsthat a number of professors hadnot had their contracts renewedand that the decision hadbeen made without students on thedeciding committee, contrary touniversity policy. At an openmeeting of Business andEconomics students, a task forcewas struck to caYry outnegotiations for representation.The Report just released detailshow students will berepresented inthe Business Department.

The hiring committee willconsist of five students and allfaculty members with studentshaving the same duties andresponsibilities as the facultymembers. Students will also sit onthe contract renewal committee,in all cases. The Board ofGovernors" decree which es-tablished student representationon such committees say studentswill "normally" sit on contractcommittees. The businessdepartment considers all cases tobe normal, says the report. Therewill be at least two students on thecommittee with the ratio ofstudents to faculty to not exceedthree to one.

In contract . renewal con-siderations, there willbe a need forprofessor evaluations, a respon-sibility which has been assignee! tostudents.

Student input in tenure decisionswill consist of a report to thechairman which in turn will beused by the departmental com-mittee and also the UniversityTenure Committee. At presentthere is no ruling on student

representation on Tenure com-mittees.

Finally, the business depart-ment has accepted the presence ofeight students on the Businessdepartment council with equalvoting rights. However, studentrepresentation on the School ofBusiness and Economics FacultyCouncil has not yet been approvedpending approval by the Depart-ment of Economics.

'Policies for the people'

Finance forummisses the mark

by Dave Schultz"The real failure was that

the discussion centered aroundnumbers and bookkeepingprocedures and never entered intodiscussions about the university'spolicies regarding AncillaryServices. Only when the discussionturns to such matters will changesof a permanent matter be madethat will benefit the students" saidone person who attendedTuesday's forum in Clara Conradhall concerning the financing ofancillary services.

Chaired by Student ServicesDirector Colin McKay andfeaturing four administrators andfour students, the forum appearedto miss the mark on a number oftimes, and at .other times to driftoff on obscure tangents.

Following a very rigid structuredevised by McKay, nearly half ofthe 50 minute forum was con-cerned with technical mattersrequiring, for the mostpart, only arecitation of numbers that in noway illuminated administrationthinking on the operation of an-

ciliary services or, for that matter,the relationship of ancillary ser-vices to the university as. a whole.Highlighting this section of theforum was an almost 4 minutedissertation by universityBusiness Manager Cliff Bilyea onthe Ancillary Services budget for74-75 which included such in-formation as money allocated forHeat, Light, Power, and Water isexpended on "exactly thosethings...heat, light, power andwater". Tarn Giesbrecht,university controller also told the25 people present about PresidentPeters efforts to negotiate moremoney from the government tocover operation of ancillary en-terprises, without in any wayrelating this to the operations.

Phil Poole, a student panelistmade perhaps the most tellingcomment when he said "I knowvery well the budget before us isgoing to be quite balanced", andwould prefer to deal with mattersof efficiency of operation, andpolicy behind decision making.

Some matters, both large and

small were resolved, however.Steve Dineley asking a questionfrom the audience queried whystudents carry the complete loadof the dining hall mortgage whensomeareas, notably the mezzanineare out of bounds and are reser-ved, for administration functions.Giesbrecht answered by saying"That's a point".

Another 'point' admitted byGiesbrecht was that the universitythis coming year will turn a sur-plus of $16,000 while charging thebookstore precisely the sameamount in 'rent. She noted it ispermissible for a school to have asurplus to be reserved to meetfuture deficits, but added it isentirely coincidental that thisamount matches the bookstore'rent.

Some concern was evident overthe efficiency of ancillary ser-vices. Pat Kinch questioned fromthe audience Bilyea on the ef-ficiency of residence maintenancestaff. Bilyea replied that about ayear and a half ago the ad-ministration attempted to cut backon services offered in residence interms of cleaning, laundry and soon, and since students objected tothe cutback, services were kept attheir former level; an answer itmay be noted, that does not dealwith efficiency. He went on to adda curtailment of services could bein the offing if costs increase.

Phil Poole also theefficiency of some purchasesmade by the bookstore by citing anumber of examples of productsavailable at lower prices thanobtained by the bookstore.

The forum closed on an op-timistic note when it was agreedby all that the forum, or someother arena of discussion should beformed again "earlier4n the year vaccording to Giesbrecht "startingwith some formal meetings andsome informal discussions" whichshe hopes will be interesting andhelpful.

Those hidden fees...l. Present government policy

declares that only non-academicmoney may be used for non-academic operations such asWLU's ancillary services. At theforum Tarn Giesbrecht noted thatthese "free monies" amount to$397 thousand. Income of "freemonies", called "Other Income"comes from athletic fees,miscellaneous fees, propertyrental, interest on endowments,special grants from both privateand public sources and sundryother areas. Without the moneyreceived from student athleticfees, the total is about $330thousand. However, at the forumshe listed expenditures of freemonies as amounting to at least$364 thousand. ($2OO thousand forscholarships, $100 thousand to theCampus Development Program,$42 thousand in mortgages, and $26thousand to cover the anticipatedancillary enterprises deficit.)Thus there is a difference of atleast $34 thousand between whatGiesbrecht told students wasallocated for expenditures out of"free monies", and what she toldthem was available in the fund.

2. What is the true nature of thebookstore 'rent. According to thebookstore budget for 69-70,reprinted in the Cord of Dec 4,1970,

the bookstore pays $16,000 to theuniversity to cover a 25 yearmortgage on construction costs forthe bookstore of a quarter of amillion dollars. However, in thebudget for 74-75, the bookstorepays $16,000 rent. In fact, CliffBilyea pointed outthat ''there is nomortgage on the bookstore".Although to Paul Fischer,bookstore manager it makes littledifference whetherhe pays rent ora mortgage, (at least in the shortrun), there is a decided differencebetween rent, which is continuedad infinitum, and a mortgagewhich is eventually retired. GarryLambert, the university ac-countant reports that 'rent' is themore accurate term, and he couldsee no reason why it was oncecalled a mortgage payment. Whythe change in nomenclature andbookkeeping.

3. Residence people will bereceiving phones next year. Theuniversity will be footing the costsof installation and students willcover operating costs. When acompany makes an investment ofthis type, it considers as an ex-pense the amount of money itwould have received had the sumbeen invested in stoclts, bonds orwhatever. For example, if acompany puts a building up for

$50,000, then it will 'lose' everyyear $5,000 in possible interestincome. The university is doingthat with the phone installationcosts and considers the 'lost' in-terest an operating cost, thuspayable by the students. However,when the university receives thismoney from the students in Sep-tember, it can turn around andinvest it, as is now standardpractice With dormant universityfunds. (As an aside, the ad-ministration holds back part ofstudent fees collected in Sep-tember, invests this money andthus earns interest on the moneythat is owing to SAC.. interestwhich SAC could be acrcumulating.)

4. Parking. At the forum Bilyeasaid that parking revenues areabout 20 thousand dollars andexpenses about 30 thousanddollars. Expenses, for snowremoval and the like, apply to allparking lots, whether they areallocated to staff, faculty orstudents. However, only studentspay parking fees. Thus, studentparking fees go to pay foroperation of faculty and staffparking areas, thus studentparking rates are higher than theactual cost of maintaining thestudent lots alone.

Where dowe fit?

by Fred YoungsSomehow things have a way of happening around here

without us knowing about them. Take for example the im-minent location of the portables on our campus.

They hired a firm of consultants (accountants?) to look forthe best possible, the most ideal, the optimum, if-you-looked-for-a-hundred-years-you-couldn't-find-a-better-placelocations in which to place these structures. It seems that thebest place to put portables is on grass, in fact all over thegrass, so if you should live in residence, you will have achoice. You can choose to sit in the sun, on asphalt, or youcan lay in the shade, under a portable.

It seems the firm of consultants missed the basicallyunused parking lot on King Street. Rarely do more than six orseven cars park down that far, so why not put, them the/c?Several reasons spirng to mind. Firstly, maybe the asphaltwould be too difficult to tear up, but this is unlikely, and itwould be much easier than levelling a hill and uprootingsome trees. Secondly, maybe the idea of putting them downthat far away from the school would deter students fromattending classes in winter, or summer for that matter.Unlikely, as a student who doesn't want to go to a classdoesn't need a reason. No, the reason wouldn't be that.Maybe the locations are where they are because, well,portables are associated with high schools, and if we putthem behind residences, on grass, maybe not too manypeople will see them. If no one sees them, then no one knowsthey're here, and then WLU won't be too em-barassed right? Right! And what's a few blades of grassamong friends?Three years ago the Boatd of Governors gave the BusinessStudents the right to sit on faculty decision councils. It wasn'timplemented until this year, and only after three months ofnegotiation. Great, now the Business Students have got whatthey deserve, but why the three months of negotiation? WelJ,it seems thingsdon'tgo too far without negotiation. Even if itis already granted, above legality, you have to discuss thepoint. Marie Antoinette said "Let them eat cake", and if thishumble writer can be so bold as to paraphrase, the motto hereis "Let them bang their head against a wall."

Then there was the now infamous Ancillary ServicesCommittee meeting held last Tuesday. It established itself inthe tried and true mold of "Useless things you can do on aTuesday afternoon." The wholeJdea was to allow a forum onthe use of student money by the administration, a weightytopic that not too many students care about, but that is a-totally different topic.

The idea is good, but it was the implementation of it thatcaused the problem. Firstly, there were only fifty minutesallotted to it, which is like trying to read War and Peace in aday, a rather impossible task, considering we are nowdiscussing the spending of some ten million dollars. Thenthere was the time allotted to floor questions, about fiveminutes, which allowed three people, a mere fraction of themassive crowd in attendance, to really get down to the meatof the matter. And-if this was not enough, the wholediscussion centered around the technicalities of the budget.This is the real question. The interested students weren't thereto take an intro business lecture, but to find out about theadministration's priorities. We never did.

This brings us to the crux of this discourse: Is this a schoolor is it a business? Isn't it better to lose a little face in order toimprove conditions? Why, oh why, does everything have tobe so community oriented? Joe Smith doesn't pay to go here,you and I do. I don't advocate the alienation of the com-munity to serve our needs, only that our needs should begranted greater weight.

The fact that the portables might be embarassing to WLU isof little consequence If academic considerations make themnecessary, then we must have them. At the same time,aesthetic considerations might not be altogether out of placein making the decisions as to their 1 placement.

At the same time, the students deserve to be treated with ashade less condescension than has often been the case. Wedeserve more enlightenment than we got on Tuesday, and wedeserve more consideration for what has been guaranteed tous than the Business School showed in it's attempts tonegotiate. WLU is now a provincially run university, and ithas the possibility of prospering like never before, but all theprosperity in the world will be to no avail if it is to be directedlike Stelco.

lettersThe combine strikes

Again the combine triumphs.Again the Bureaucracy hasrailroaded the students into ac-cepting ridiculous conditions,which in any democratic situationwould bring about dissent.

If you were at the meeting thisafternoon or any other in-convenient time the combine haspicked to assuage our consciousthen you would know the factsinvolved. Even if you read this"ahem" chronicle of the campusyou would know the issues aboutthe food situation, need I beredundant? However, the point ofthis article is to bring to attentionan example of the dirty pool that isbeing played by the people up-stairs. Firstly the combine hadcalled a meeting to discuss thefood problem last week, on aWednesday afternoon when mostacademicians are in class, 3:30pm., or playing bridge, how in-convenient. This meeting did notinclude lan Beare, Colin McKay,or Tamara Giesbrecht, as wasadvertised, doesn't that strike anoteof bad credibility? Cliff Bilyeawas there to defend the side ofthe combine, apparently hismathematics were in trouble, sothe people upstairs called anothermeeting. This time it was slatedfor Tuesday of this week, in adistant location, "Clara'sCloister", at a very inopportunetime, 1:30 pm. The point is that thecombine wants to state that theycalled meetings but due to studentapathy they didn't go as planned.The charge of apathy ispreposterous, in that the combinetakes care not to fully inform thestudent of any happenings. Ad-vertisement for the meeting wasgiven a small corner in the frontpage by the newspaper staff, acombine official had said theywould buy a space for such pur-poses, where was that ad-

vertisement? At 4:00 pm. Mondaythe combine started ad-vertisement for the meeting to beheld on Tuesday. I have been inpositions of advertisement enoughto know that you cannot inform alarge group of people aboutanything less than 24 hours inadvance. Now really is the com-bine that inefficient, or do theyreally want us at their so-calledopen meetings? You get threeguesses, last two don't count.Now that you've scored an A- on

that one, shall we consider whythey don't want us there. Forgiveme, oh celebrated psychologyprofessors, if I sound a wee bit onthe paranoid schizophrenic side.Who wouldn't be schizo aftereating the shit that's pawned off asfood in this place—an obviousetiology of a metabolic anomalic.It is apparent that this little in-stitutionlike the larger combine isnot concerned with the people theyare supposed to serve, but theirmain objective is to perpetuatetheirstatus of power, prestige andall that crap, for what it's worth.Specifically, this institution'sparticular section of the combine(save faculty) is interested inripping off the student for its ownbenefit, and no one elses. WilfridLaurier, nee Waterloo LutheranUniversity is not a school, don't befooled by the disguise,but a moneymaking business (oh obscenities)and an inefficient one at that. Themost ironic part of the wholesordid mess is that we as studentsare trained in logic. How can youspeak logic with a bunch ofrhinoceroses. If you were at a foodmeeting you would know what Imean. Lackeys of the combinecomplain that students bring upthe same thing overand over againat the meetings, that's becausenothing is being done. If you wouldlike the most spell-binding,freaked-out frustrating exper-ience, that is guaranteed to set

off a full-blown psychotic episode,then attend any one of themeetings sponsored by the com-bine. When all legal methods ofnegotiation, sucking, and cryinghave been exhausted, what do youdo? Need I give a multiple choicequestion on that issue? If you havebeen having trouble lately withtalking to a brick wall disguised asadministration officials, thenfollow this home remedy, forverification ask my Grandmother.

1. Don't badmouth ladies on theline, they're getting screwed asmuch as we are.

2. Don't crawl in a hole like anapathetic student. It's your wellearned dough, make sure it's spentwisely.

3. Option:a) boycott the dining hall, or

fill it to capacity, they'll gobankrupt that way.

b) Go to another school.However the combine is universal.

c) If you decide to stick itout in this miserable establish-ment make itknown to the froshesnext year what a rip-off this placeis.

d) Try to get somethinggoing. Like the above recom-mendations, at least get to action.After all, it is your fees.

c) Invite the combine downfor a delicious repast featuringTherisenstadt T-Steaks,Buchenwald "Burgers, andMadenhouse Macaroni, on a daywhen the staff isn't notified. Ortake up one of these delicasies upto the Big Nurse's office, with anote saying, Eat shit, we do!

f) Make this a school forstudentsnot for the combine. If wehave to be radical pigs (oh ob-scenities) to do it, then by Christ,let's do it.

Right ThinkingDemocratic Malaise

by Robert K. Rooneyfahat ishappening to democratic

government?The United States isstumbling along with the mostunpopular president in history andboth the media and Congressbaying for his blood. Canada has aminority government, albeit afairly stable one (NDP stands forNever Desert Pierre). Willi Brandtis faltering in his coalition inGermany. Italy is playing'Government of the Week'. Britain

is under the alleged government ofLabour supported by the Liberals.Is the democratic process goingdown the drain? Why does orderlyand effective government seem tobe receding into the sunset in theWestern world?

The answer is difficult todiscern. Third parties are surelypartly to blame, but third partieshave public support-too, so theproblem must be deeper than'that.For somereason thepopulations ofvarious countries are growingincreasingly dissatisfied with theactivities of their governments.

Part of the answer to thisproblem may lie in the all-pervasive character of govern-ments today. When the govern-ment assumes the responsibilityfor satisfying the needs of thepeople, it lays itself open tocriticism if it does not perform inasatisfactory manner. The inherentinefficiency of government makesit almost inevitable that theseneeds will not be fulfilled. Inherentbecause of the tendencies

everywhere of bureaucracies towork badly. It is only magnified ingovernment because of the basiclack of responsibility in govern-mental bureaucracy. Face it, whofires civil servants? How do youfind the foul-up in the rabbitwarrens of the civil service?

Elected representatives are in aposition of power for only a shorttime. The luck of the ballot mayensure that a parliament has ahigh turnover. While therepresentatives are temporary,however, the bean-counters in thebureaucracy are permanent. Whoteaches whom about the waythings are run in the capital, anycapital? Who can obstruct andstultify any unwanted reform orprogramme? Read James Borenin his amusing but frighteningexposes of Bureaucracy. Read'The Peter Principle' and you willfind out how the world works. Thesimple facts of the matter are thatgovernment has taken too muchupon itself and proceeded to do thenecessary in as complicated and

inefficient a way as is possible.Let us not be beguiled by the

apparent beauties of auth-oritarianism, though. Thenature of any authoritarian ortotalitarian system is towardcentralization. The more cen-tralized things get, the morebureaucracy is needed to ad-minister affairs. Add to that thefact that a meritocracy is unlikelyin an authoritarian state; witnessthe countless toadies and partyfunctionaries inCommunist states,for example, and you have a fairidea of how efficient a totalitarianstate is going to be. One branch ofthe government will be efficient,though. The police will beübiquitous; Gestapo or KGB, theywill be efficient in killing thepersonal freedom we now have. Itis of no difference whether the leftor the right is in power, a bayonetis a bayonet.

The present drift toward the leftis disturbing. Communists inFrance and Italy are growing instrength. It is not inconceivable

that they could emerge in power ifthe governments deteriorate farenough. Then the world would seebureaucracy! Ironic, isn't it, thatpeople may choose more of thepoison that is killing them?

There is a ray of hope. Scan-dinavia, blessed with cradle to thegrave welfare schemes and theaccompanying bureaucracy andsky-high taxation, once again haspresented us with a sterlingexample of progress. It is theProgress Party, which one-sixth ofthe Danish electorate supported inthe election of last December. TheProgress Party stands for theabolition of the income tax forpeople earning less than $10,000per year and the firing Of most ofthecivil service. Quixotic perhaps,but indicative of a mood which isnot confined solely to Denmark.

Whatever the solution, 'pro-gress' on the Danish model orwhatever, something just must bedone to revitalize the politicalsystems. 1984 is just ten yearsaway.

Military Madness

Richard Nixon has beendesperately attempting to rebuildthe American people's confidencein his ability to administer theState. Unfortunately for him theover-all effect has been to makemanifest his loss of control overthe Administration itself. Theconstant shake-up of positions andrecruitment of new 'special ad-visors' gives the impression of aface-lift more than a shoring upand consolidation of reliable ex-

pertise.While he has been busy making

speechs to regain credibility(.reaching a laughable high pointwith his "I'm not a crook" speech)his subordinates have beenexercising unprecedented in-fluence over him. The coincidentinfighting which has been comingto light recently is further proof ofa shattered government executiveengaged in civil war. At a crucialtime, when unity is necessarymore than ever, department headsare empire-building.

The most important actors inthis drama are Nixon, Kissingerand James Schlesinger, theSecretary of Defense. According toWashington columnist TomBraden "the United States isbeing ruled by a triumvirate.Schlesinger and the Joint Chiefs ofStaff will do anything to destroyKissinger and regain primacy inthefield of foreign affairs. Nixon isthe weak man If he losesKissinger he's finished. Kissingeris now the most powerful man inthe United States."

Even a general surveillance ofAmerican and international newstends to support this theory.Traditionally the DefenseDepartment and the Secretary ofState are the primary advisors tothe President on foreign affairs.But when the American position onthe India-Pakistan war was set, itwas decided upon by Nixon andthen-special-advisor Kissingerindependently. Apparently inretaliation, confidential policystance reports were leaked to thepress; it turned out that the sourceof the security breach was withinthe Pentagon. It has since beenreported that for some timeKissinger's office has been buggedand confidential papers brought tothe Joint Chiefs of Staffs

This type of sneak-thief tactic isjust the sort of activity which isbeing investigated by theWatergate inquiries. It bodes illwhen co-operative communicationwithin the government hasdeteriorated to this extent. Thestage is set for extra-legal powerplays when supposedly democratic

institutions cannotharmony in their infrastructureand resolve conflicts without in-ternal struggles for dominance.

More recent and crucial wasSchlesinger's posturing for'military action' to deal with theArab oil embargo. This occurredat the same time that Kissingerwas co-ordinating Arab-Israelipeace talks. Using internationalcircumstances to attack a politicalopponent can have dangerousrepercussions. At the very least itis clear evidence of an ad-ministration divided within itself.

The threat of a major shifting ofpower centres within the govern-ment is important in that the goalsand strategy of the United Stateswill also change. What would ashift toward Schlesinger and theJoint Chiefs of Staff bring? Likelythe biggest swing towardsManifest Destiny in Americanforeign policy since the MonroeDoctrine. It is equally possible thatstrictly enforced Law and Order asdefined by the military vvould- bethe order of the day, considering

General Haig's disposition andproximity to the President.

The most important changewould be an end to the U.S.-U.S.S.R. 'detente' and the SALTtalks. This would follow close uponthe heels of the actualization ofSchlesinger's pet project—toredirect the American missilesystem from pointing at Sovietcities to pointing at Soviet missilebases. Even now the U.S. isstrengthening its nuclear sub-marine fleet. These actions wouldchange the emphasis of nuclearpolicy for retaliation to firststrike, and provide the capacity todo just that.

One last point thatmight interestsomeone. General Leigh of ChileanJuntas Incorporated said in aprivate interview a little whileback that "within five years all ofLatin America would be undermilitary rule, andwithin ten yearsthe United States would be too. "He went on to add that he "hadgood contacts with the Americanmilitary and knew their thinking."Sweet dreams.

O,Canadaby Henry Hess

0 Canada we stand on guard forthee...but to hell with the rest ofthe world. Such irrationalisolationist sentiments have a wayof breaking out occasionally andbeing echoed upand down editorialpages throughout the country.Most recently they have appearedin response to the announcement inOttawa that aid is to be extended tovarious rebel movements engagedin the struggle against the rem-nants of colonialism in Africa:notably in Mozambique, Rhodesia,Angola, Guinea and Namibia.

The opponents of such aidcharacterize it as a direct sub-sidization of terrorism. Theywould have us believe that the onlyfunctions of a liberation movementare killing, kidnapping and ex-tortion, and they are aided increating this impression by thesensationalist photographs whichthe media are so fond of carryingshowing rifle-toting black menweighted down by bandoliers ofammunition. These same op-ponents insist that no matter what

form Canadian aid might take, itwill inevitably be converted intoarms. We are left with the mentalpicture of an African peasanttrading his new Canadian blanketto the Chinese for a rifle, or twocases of penicillin and a medicalattendant for a crate of sub-machine guns. Even if this picturewere accurate, it would behypocritical in the extreme for usto presume that we are betterqualified than he to determine hisneeds and priorities and to at-tempt, on this basis, to regulate hisactions.

In fact, this picture is not ac-curate but is partial and distorted,founded upon a misconception or acomplete ignorance of the goals ofany liberation movement. Therifles are, of course, real andnecessary, made so by therepressive forces employed by thecolonialists. A liberationmovement opposed by the Por-tuguese (or South African orRhodesian) army must learn tofight quickly and well if it is tosurvive. Equally necessary if the

movement is to live and grow,however, is the provision of socialservices for the people, withoutwhose good will no liberationmovement can hope to succeed,since itdepends upon them for foodand security. Acts of in-discriminate terrorism againstthem, such as are often charged,would quickly erode this base andlead to the destruction of themovement. Utility, if nothing else,dictates that a liberator doeverything within his power toimprove conditions, not worsenthem.

Not only are the short term in-terests of the insurgents best serv-ed by providing health andeducational services for thepopulation, his long term goalsabsolutely depend upon it. Themen who are currently at theforefront of the liberationmovements are also the men whomay reasonably be expected toform the next government of thecountry in question. It would beirrationalfor them to destroy theirrapport with the population

through acts of senseless violence.Rather they must demonstratetheir ability to work beneficientchanges so as to ensure and con-solidate their support. This is whythe picture presented byphotographs of men with guns isnecessarily an incomplete one.Completing it would require theaddition of medics, teachers andagriculturalists; men who are,unfortunately, not nearly sophotogenic as a man with a gun.

It follows that opposition toCanadian aid cannot be justified onthe grounds that it would con-tribute to acts of terrorism. Suchacts, when they do occur, are morecredibly attributed to the colonialforces who have no reason to fearlosing the support of the people,since they do not have it in anycase. The only grounds left foropposition appear to be eitherracist or political ones.

The basis of racist opposition isobvious, and does not deservefurther mention. The foundation ofpolitical opposition is morecomplex, but seems to spring from

a reluctance to deal with whatmight be characterized as"pre-legitimate" governments.This may or may not be a validobjection from a politician's pointof view, but there is, nevertheless,one thing which it would be well forthem to keep in mind. That is thefact that in dealing with this issuethey are probably setting the tonefor their subsequent relations withthecountry inquestion. It would benaive to suppose that anassociation founded upon skep-ticism and mistrust couldmagically be transformed into acordial one at the moment whenOttawa belatedly decides torecognize the liberation movementas the legitimate government.Today's rebel chieftain willprobably be tomorrow's primeminister, but his character will nothave been significantly altered bythe mere conferring of alegitimizing title. If Ottawa plansto trust him and deal with him asprime minister, there is no reasonfor them to treat him withsuspicion now.

DisC by Fred Youngs

Not so very long ago, the BeachBoys were commonly thought of asa band who had had their day, onewhich produced some of the bestsingles of the sixties and was dyinga slow, unmerciful death. Not so,though, if you took their recordsales and some of their work overthe past few years, you could buildwhat appears to be a very con-vincing case for this argument. Itwas not until Holland appearedthat we could really say that theBeach Boys were alive andkicking. Carl and the Passion/PetSounds was a dismal affair, thepurpose ofwhich was only justifiedby the inclusion of the deleted, butmagnificent Pet Sounds. Surfs Up,the title song by Van Dyke Parks

and Brian Wilson, was disap-pointing, basically because of thetime taken to produce the album.Holland took the same amount oftime, but the fruits of the labourswere more bountiful. Now with therelease of Live in Concert, we seethat the Beach Boys are noC,S,N,& V, with harmonies in thestudio, but distinct lack of suchonstage; no, the Beach Boys do allthe great harmonies and more onstage.

I would venture to say that this isthe best live album since TheAllrnan Brothers Live at theFillmore, which was the best sinceLive at Leeds, which makes theBeach Boys album, one of thethree best albums ever recorded.

The album spans the enitregamut of the Beach Boys' career,which is no mean feat. There arethree songs from Holland andSurfs Up, and then all those goldenoldies. Everything from "Fun,Fun, Fun" to a ragged version of"Help Me Rhonda". "Rhonda" isthe only song that really suffersfrom the live treatment. It soundsas if it may fall apart any minute,but manages to hold together untilthe very end by sheer force. Otherthan this the performance on thealbum is so good it is really un-believable. The harmonies andmusicianship are superb. In"Sloop John B" I counted fourdifferent rhythms at once, yet itheld together, mostly because ofRicky Fattar who is one of thefinest young drummers in thebusiness. Without him it could wellbe a shambles, as he adds simpledirect backing beat and nothingfancy. He is quite comparable toRingo Starr, in that he doesn'tstand out, but merely does his job,something a lot of drummers don'tin their quest to make the drums asolo instrument.

This album is beyond reproach,it sounds like they had fun makingit and it is so good and so much funto listen to, that I break into asmile each time I hear it, and Ican't think of anything nicer to sayabout an album.

by Frank SextonAn addition to opening theory is

not always an improvement. Onemaster who is dedicated to takingchess back to the stone age is I.M.Henry Grob of Switzerland. He hassysternized the Grob's Attackwhich is an attempt at shockingyour opponent so badly by yourtotal disregard for opening theorythat he cannot reply adequately.

Grob published a treatise on thisopening in 1969. It is ninety-threepages of sometimes absurd,sometimes brilliant analysis of 1.P-KN4. This is the characteristicmove of Grob's Attack; it is alsothe first move of the Fool's Mate(ie 1.P-KN4, P-K3; 2. P-KB4, Q-R5mate). However Grob has usedthis move to greateffect in the pastand even some other players witha similar taste for the bizarre andbeautiful have won astoundinggames using it. Yet no grand-master has ever attempted to playthis opening during a seriousgame.

To say, however, that theopening has no value, is not true.Without exploration into all of thepossibilities on the board, chesstheory will always remain in-complete. Without theorists likeHenry Grob, players would neverknow what not to play.

To be fair, though, here is agame where Grob annihilates his

opponent using his attack.

Sports: wrapping 'er all upby Rick Campbell

The next week or so at WLU willsee the wind-up of athletic activityfor this school year, the first fullyear of operation for our athleticcomplex. It has been a very busy,yet highly organized yearathletically, both on the homefront, and in the OUAA; at bothvarsity and intra-mural level therehave been many moments of teamand individual joy, despair andevery other emotion that is con-nected with sport.

In their first season in the leagueas the Laurier GoldenHawks, a lotof very big guys and not so manyvery big small guys broughtprovincial honours to our school infootball by winning the OUAA.Guided by Coach Knight and hisassistants, the Hawks sprang backfrom an early season loss toWindsor to take the WesternDivision section from Western,and then the Yates Cup from Ot-tawa, winners in the East. Thismade it back-to-back cham-pionships for our school inuniversity football, a feat anyschool should be proud of. Fromthe Ottawa game, Hawks ad-vanced to the Atlantic Bowlagainst St. Mary's. Our school wasso heavily favoured to win that theproposed telecast of the game wascancelled due to a supposed lack ofinterest. But upsets are as much apart of the game as winningchampionships, and at the risk ofsounding like a spokesman forWide World of Sports, the Hawksmust have suffered great agony intheir 19-17 defeat to the Huskies.To come so close to recognition asnational champions seemed likevery little consolation lastNovember. Yet this spring itshowed up well with the numerousplayers drafted and signed fromour school by the CFL and WFL,which is ample proof of their skill.Cord wishes the very best of goodluck to all these guys in theirrespective try-outs; to the guysremaining, there is a solid nucleusto build next year's hopes on, andwith replacements in key vacatedpositions, theTlawks should haveno problem maintaining theirreputation as a football power inOUAA.

Overlapping with the end of thefootball schedule were the hockeyand basketball seasons. Under thedirection of Coach Smith the b-ballHawks floored a competitive teamwhich kept most games close, butwhich was plagued by inaccurateshooting which cost the team a lotof victories. Although not assuccessful as their footballcounterparts, the team fell short ofmaking the play-offs by only ahandful of points in their second tolast game of the season. If nothingelse, next years team will be the"new loo" Hawks, as five startersgraduate this year. Hopefully agood recruiting job will lead thebasketball team into the play-offsnext year.

The hockey Hawks were thesurprise team of the year on thevarsity level. Coming off a dismalseason last year, "rookie" CoachGowing and his troops almosttripled their victory countseason before bowing out to theeventual national champions, theWaterloo Warriors in the quarter-finals. The fact that the Hawksmade the play-offs was a feat initself, and next year with addeddefensive strength, the hockeyteam will become a definite forceto be reckoned with.

The distaffs also were wellrepresented this year in volleyball,basketball, curling and badminton(the latter two also had guyteams). Although the curling teamwon the first ever trophy by awomen's team at WLU, with the

aid of the Complex, and increasedcoaching, the other women'steams should be much moresuccessful as well as competitiveinthe years to come, adding a newbalance to varsity sports at theschool.

THE INTRA-MURAL SCENEMore significant to the student

body as a whole, the intra-muralschedule under theco-ordination ofGary Jeffriesalso winds up a verysuccessful year in the week or so tocome. The year was divided into aFall and Winter section, withcompetitive, tournament, andrecreational activities. Throughthe response by students, it waslearned which events would besuccessful, and which ones theformat would have to be changedfor, for next year.

At the competitive level in thefall, the Penthouse Panters ofLittle House 3A West started offthe year with a bang, winning thefootball title and the men'svolleyball crown. Both theseevents were a super success, with160and 50 participants taking part

respectively. In women's volley-ball the Off Campus gals ledtheir league the entire season andcapped it off with a championshipvictory. Co-ed volleyball alsoproved to be very popular withZarnke's Zonkers? taking tophonours in this event this season.In other competitions, men'ssoccer also started off a roundrobin tournament but interestwaned as the weather did and nochampion was declared. Two other

sports planned were women'shockey and water-polo, but theformat of these was changed torecreational activity for greaterall round enjoyment. In tournamentplay in the fall, lousy weather alsofouled up our golf classic, butamong the entrants, MalcolmBrunett emerged the men'schampion with a 73 while ColeenShields successfully defended herfillies crown with a 49 over 9 holes.The One-on-one basketball tour-nament also showed that somenon-varsity players have a goodshooting eye, Especially IrvSternberg, who won the com-petition after Christmas. Pre-NewYear squash competitionwas quitepopular considering the relativenewness of the sport, and JohnLewis and Murray Davis wereamong the top competitors. Inaddition to all these competitions,instructional clinics were held inthe activities such as horsebackriding, squash and tennis, andgave students ample opportunityto make new acquaintances andexperience many good times.

The intra-mural programstepped up after Christmas withmany individual and team sports,as well as a few unique tour-naments. The men's basketballfinals are being held this weekwiththe Faculty Old-Timers playingthe Passmore Selects. Thewomen's play-off's are alsocoming down to the wire withsemi-final action pitting the Dud'sagainst Conrad Hall and ConradHall a3 vs. the Quarter-pounders.

In co-ed there are 3 teams in thecompetition, with the finals to beheld on Monday night. PassmoreSelects also captured theDivision Ifloor hockey title, beating the BigThree & Co. despite two goalperformances by John Marks and"Chncker" Klie. However thechamps have been challenged bythe Division II champs, the No-Names, in a game to be held to-nite. Co-ed bowling is well up onthe popularity ratings, and theMisses (Dave Michel, Peg Caron,Bonnie Jeffries, Jerry Donnelle)seem to have the stranglehold onthat title. Men's hockey continuesto be one of the most successfulsports at the school. The EmsdaleScreaming Eagles won the regularseason, but were knocked out inthe first round of the play-offs bythe Dolphins, who will be playingfor the championship tomorrowagainst MacDonald House. Lastweek the intra-mural league en-tered an all-star in Uniwat's an-nual tournament.The guys showedextremely well for their lack ofpractice together and won theirfirst game in overtime against ateam from Waterloo. Jim Darlingand Pete Cox were the marksmen,and the win placed our school inthe championship round againstOsgoode Hall. Charlie Millerscored both goals in our 5-2 losswhich knocked us out of thetournament, but our display wasexcellent considering the otherteams play together all season.More unique but no less significantcompetitions in the intra-muralprogram were billiards, with RickGraff the top hustler, Bridge, PaulVirgin and Phil Poole the cardsharks, and, can you believe itChris Schenkel, Wrist-Wrestling,(Larry Simpson, Gord Jack,Jamie Lamont, and Karl Rid-dough,) in individual weightclasses. Other clubs such as YogaKarate, Skiing, and Curling (withLee Rachar, Paul Speer,Marilynne Senese, and BarbBriggs the top curlers) provedpopular among the students, as didthe swimming and diving ac-tivities for those interested enoughto get involved. Two of the mostsuccessful tournies of the yearwere the squash and co-ed bad-

minton events, which had trophiesdonated by the InternationalStudents Association. The squashtournament had a very high levelof competition, with five membersper team, ranked in order ofability. Individual winners werefirst seed: John Lewis (Fclty)second: Pete Kitnie (student),third: Arthur Stevens (Staff),fourth: Tupper Cawsey (Fclty),and fifth: Art Kewin (student).The team champion was Faculty,who won 42 of 45 matches.

Co-ed badminton also provedthat fierce competition lies in thisfield in intra-mural circles. Thechampions were Tim Driver andChristine Driver, with BrydenDunn and Roscoe Markovic takingconsolations. Apologies go out tothe names and events not men-tioned, but congratulations to allcompetitors and event organizers.All inall it has been a very full andlearning experience in the intra-mural program this year. Theprograms and cancellations willindirectly help to make next yearsprogram even better. The Intra-mural Council has devised aprogram where every person willbe on the same team for the entireyear, and the team's points will becompiled over the whole year also.Those living in residence will bepartitioned according to thoseresidences, while off campusparticipants will be allocated to ateamrepresenting his faculty (forexample, Arts I). Hopefully thisrealignment will build fiercerivalries among floors andfaculties. The key point involvedthough is that points will be givenfor participation in the events,spelling out the fact that it is thestudents who will make thisprogram work. You don't have tobe a superstar to be a part of thescene, you just need the desire tobe involved.

It's always sad to have to lookback on the year gone by.However, the memories will beenhanced by looking forward to theyear ahead, when sport will bereborn at WLU, and once againtake its familiar role in student lifeat our school. Until that time, justremember—you don't have to playa sport to be a good one.
