Speaker assails socio-economic Ottawa senior civil servant Roy Tin-

ney-on campus thursday to discuss the Canada water act-blamed the socio- economic system for the pollution that surrounds us. I

Tinney was speaking at a lecture spon- sored by the school of urban and region- al planning, and is acting director of the water planning and operations branch of the federal department of energy, mines and resources.

“One can’t help wonder,” said Tinney, “why it is in Canada, which has such a relatively small population, such vaste

L river systems and such a tremendous stint of open spaces, why is it that the Canadian environment is so degraded?

“Its got outstanding recreational op- portunities, a tremendous abundance of fish and wildlife, all the things you would think that would allow Canada to be cleaner than other nations, the truth of the matter is it is just as bad as all the rest. Where ever we live in Canada it’s just as polluted as any place else.

‘What is there about our system, what is there about Canada that lets us act the same way as our populous neigh- bours to the south. There has to be something in the system that is basic- ally wrong. ”

Environmental damage

Tinney went on to explain that like many other countries Canada had devel- oped a very efficient economic system but. a system which also- very seriously damages the environment.

We had not as yet developed an effic- ient means of putting our wastes back into the ecological system, at present we are just washing them away and ac- cording to newtonian physics, explained Tinney, it is necessary to put back as much one extracts.

Tinney pointed out that our economic system was also a failure because it was impossible for someone to register his desire for a cleaner environment and because it was to some producers

economic advantage to pollute because they would thereby put the costs of production onto someone else.

The legal system also offers little pro- tection because of the arguement that air and water belong to everyone and therefore belong to no one and therefore can not be protected.

Stopping -people from polluting was not an easy matter either, he said. The fines and standards technique can not be relied on because of the whims of the public. They have been proven to fail because the public will not stand for them.

Possible solutions

He pointed out there were six sections to the act: arrangements for consulta- tion ; comprehensive water management planning; water quality management; a special section of nutrient control; in- spection and enforcement; and public information.

The problem must be attacked in oth- er ways. Tinney’ suggested four. First,

This act is particularly important be-

one could change the final demand sec- cause of all the special clauses concern-

tor by putting taxes or fees on goods ing consultation between provincial and

and services which pollute. Second, federal governments. Another important

there should be changes made in the part is the degree to which the public

basic production system such as turn- can participate in goals formulation and planning.

system ing out cars which do not pollute. Third, there is as yet no efficient means of stor- age and collection of wastes. Finally, there is a definite information problem.

The public in Canada need to be in- formed far more than they are now. Tin- ney suggested the sollution to the infor- mation problem may lie in supporting pressure groups. These four ways of stopping pollution were all tried in the canada water act.

Center is nocturnal mecca? I

Students criticd of commercial press report .a A controversial article appear-

ing Saturday in the Toronto Globe and Mail describing this university’s campus ten ter as the “nocturnal mecca of society’s dropouts” has come under fire for its “absurd sensationalism.”

Student reaction to the front- page story written by Globe uni- versity affairs reporter William Johnson has been critical of the ‘ ‘exaggeration’ ’ in his account of spending one night in the build-

r ing. Examples cited by students in-

clude the comment that “most evenings, a pub serving beer and liquor caters to students who writhe and twitch to hardrock music...“.

The account continues, “but at the hour of midnight, the straight students disappear and the cam- pus center is transformed. It becomes a combination flop- house, casino, speakeasy and

1 drug haven.” Turnkey Eugene Besruky, who

is quotqd extensively in the ar- ticle, --said Johnson approached him “with cunning and complete- ly ignored everything good a- bout the building”’ and suggested Johnson did not really see ev- erything the article portrays. Johnson gives a detailed descrip- tion of “a bearded young man” shooting drugs in one corner.

Based on observations in the’ building from last thursday even- ing until early friday morning, the article describes Chosen Few “bikers” sipping beer from bottles in the great hall; music “blaring constantly from enormous speakers”, a n d nu- merous people describing a s jobless, “regular” sleepers, and people who “prefer to be about

<- during the night rather than in the daytime. ”

Asked if his article would have made more sense if it had asked why the campus center had been forced into the role of “drop-: in” center, Johnson said sunday the purpose of the article was purely descriptive and was not

intended to redress the world’s grievances. Johnson says he felt like he was “being shut out”

when he attempted to get admin- istration reaction to his ques- tions implying there was a “cris- is” in the campus center, and decided to see the building him- self.

‘I enjoyed talking to the peo- ple,” he said, “I didn’t feel like a voyeur. ”

Administration president Burt Matthews commented it was pre- sumably one person’s opinion

and added that he didn’t expect the story to be on the front page.

Father Bill Towsend, chap- lain of Renison college said he received three calls Saturday from people‘ angry about the cen- ter. One lady, he said, urged the war measures act be used to clean up the building.

Campus center board chairman Peter Warrian said he was sorry Johnson came on a slow day.

Health services

Committee stalls on The job description of a full-

time medical director came un- der fire fromKeith Dewar, chair- man of the health services com- mittee at its meeting last fri- day.

“Many people should have time to read the memo on the role of a full-time director as adminis- trator and medical practitioner before we decide anything,” said Dewar.

Pressed for an explanation of what he meant; Dewar said he was wondering if the job could be filled by someone other than a medical doctor. He cited Har- vard which has a social worker as head of health services.

Dr. Helen Reesor, director of health services said it was finan- cially necessary to hire a doctor for the director’s salary is par- tially covered by the number of patients he sees and the subse- quent OHSIP payments.

There is also a need to spend more time treating sick people.

She asked why they had to follow the Harvard example, for what is needed in a medical director is “someone who knows about faculty and is familiar with Canadian universities. We’re unique. ”

“In order to receive applica- tions by spring, ads would be placed now in medical journals,” she said.

A request from the birth con- trol clinic to use the facilities at health services for giving birth control information and examin-

ations to non-university students has to be ( investigated for legal reasons.

While boredom was a keynote, the following were discussed :

l a questionnaire has been sent out to part-time stuaents to see if they are willing to pay for health services. Unlike full-time students, ‘part-time students are not required to pay the health services fee as part of the tui- tion costs.

by the student federation to buy birth control handbooks that have been provided to students free of charge.

l a health services informa- tion booklet cost 793 dollars for five thousand copies. These copies were circulated at the registra- tion line-up. Because of the high cost of printing, Pat Robertson, director of academic services, sug- gested the insurance company might pay for part of the publi- cation costs if allowed to adver- tise in the booklet itself.

l students who have piled up doctor bills through the health services and the patients’s lack of OHSIP coverage, will be re- fused services for “mudane sick- nesses:” Anyone who is really sick and requires emergency

‘treatment will get immediate attention. ~

l commissions from the sale of prophylactics have been used

l Hildegaard Marsden, dean of women, suggested the need for stretchers in some of the build- ings on campus. This is being left to the safety officer.

Uniwat leads refuse \research

“We are approaching the NFB for film rights,” he said, “and plan to cast Andy Devine in my role as chairman, John Wayne as a turnkey, Dustin Hoffman as federation president Larry Bur- ko, and Burt Matthews as him- self.”

Johnson said he was unable to contact Warrian for three days before he came and admitted he

could have spoken to more peo- ple, including the chevron, for further background information.

A so-called “task force” is presently being formed by the federation of students, the cam- pus center board and the admin- istration to recommend policies for the future operation of the building, but no report is expect- ed before Christmas.

medical director

According to newly-appointed earth sciences department chair- man R. N. Farvolden, contractors who build on used. landfill sites are showing “ an intense quality of greed. ”

Speaking recently at the an- nouncement of new research areas for his department, Farvolden was referring to the recent ex- plosion of a Kitchener home built on a previous landfill site in which gasses had accumulated. He noted Waterloo arena was also built on such a site.

Farvolden said landfill areas could be made safe by properly allowing for the movement of fill and gas within the fill, but that meaningful information on landfill design will not be avail- able for another 25 years. It will be possible, he said, eventually

to safely deposit liquid and solid wastes in the subsoil.

Farvolden is a hydrogeologist who specializes in groundwater resources and pollution and who, in his words, “knows more about garbage, dumps than any- one else you might know.”

The earth sciences department is now awaiting equipment that will enable it to study-in collab- oration with the civil engineering and biology departments-all aspects of analysing and design- ing sanitary landfill sites as well as the exploration of regional sub- surface resources.

According to Farvolden, this program will make the univer- sity of Waterloo a North Amer- can leader in such research, and although he specifically avoid-

ed implying his department, staff or students would act as consultants to public bodies he warned that unless governments took more responsibility for hir- ing researchers in this field, graduates from his program would be forced to depend more on the wishes of private mining and gas companies.

Adding to Farvolden’s com- ments, science dean W. B. Pear- son said he felt up to now that environmental training in fields like geology and earth sciences had been neglected in favor of social training in planning and geography.

In his view, the moral social obligation of scientists goes only as far as providing “leadership” for other groups and individuals.

We can take, for example, the picture of the child holding a handsome speciment of one of the species of game fish which thrive in the waters of Ontario. Some people might say this is designed to adver- tise the fine fishing which is a benefit to Ontario residents who are licenced to fish. This may be a secondary purpose of the commercial, but its pri- mary purpose is to remind us that our fish are ined- ible due to mercury contamination.

t 1 GRAND GRILL 1 -i by Roger Keay chevron staff

“Is there any place you’d rather be” During the last few months, the government of

Ontario has presented a series of commercials ex- tolling the virtues of life in Ontario. Evidently, the government feels that the benefits of Ontario life are not clear in the minds of her citizens. In pur- suit of a higher level of understanding in the Ontar- io people, the provincial government has spent ap- proximately $800,000 to produce and disseminate commericals designed to convey this vital informa- tion to the uninformed and the unaware.

In return for its efforts, the government has re- ceived an enormous dose of criticism. The opposi- tion parties have claimed, unjustly I’m sure, that the commercials are conservative party propagan- da intended to soften-up the public before a provin- cial election. In reality, the government has prob- ably taken the splendid example of premier Ben- nett who provided a similar series of informative messages for the citizens of British Columbia, which I understand were presented just before their last provincial election.

In making their criticism, I am sure that most people have not taken the time to examine the con- tent of the advertisements, and their informative and beneficial effects on the population. For exam- ple, one might consider the merits of the television commercials. These present a series of visual imr ages depicting enjoyable situations and revealing the beauty of Ontario, a portion of which is still undisturbed. Some uninformed individuals of limit- ed imagination might be led-to criticize the govern- ment for presenting a one-sided view of Ontario, not revealing the present problems of the province. This would be unjust! The commercials contain numerous examples of governmental honesty which will undoubtly assist in redueing the credi- bili ty gap.

In some parts of the commerical, the govern- ment has been more direct. One scene shows a large piece of earthmoving equipment scraping a- way the topsoil. This could be preparation for a free-way, a symbolic admission that the govern- ment has not yet resolved the dilemma of public transportation or the automobile. On the other hand, it could be grading the land for a new apart- ment block which will provide shelter for the ris- ing population who cannot afford to purchase a

’ home of their own due to high interest rates, un- employment or other misfortune.

In addition to thanking the government for a ser- ies of imaginative and creative commercials, we must acknowledge the addition of another well writ- ten song to our musical heritage. The lyrics of this song describing Ontario’s benefits must soothe the temper of motorists. as they sit in traffic jams breathing exhaust fumes. I am concerned however, that the question “Is there any place you’d rather be?” might seem somewhat inappropriate at that time.

I must conclude by offering praise, not criticism, to the government of. Ontario for performing this valuable information service for the citizens of the province. It is not every country which would per- mit its government to expend public funds in such a meaningful project; for in such an undertaking the real beliefs, values, objectives, and of paramount importance, the character of the government is disclosed.

Quebec radiccdspeaks~ by Georges harbonneau chevron staff

’ On the morning of october 16, 1970, Canadians awoke to find themselves living, in a fascist state-a condition quite inconceiv- able to the average Canadian men- tality, nurtured amid monotone cries in disbelief of “it can’t hap- pen here! “, said Penny Simpson who spoke thursday at Waterloo lutheran university.

Previously, sporadic incidents of violence and dissent had on a large scale either been confined to the behemoth to the south or to the banana republic; both of these political phenomena were notor- ious for basing their very existen- ce on a seasoned recycling of the elements of opulence and degrad- ation.

Penny Simpson was one of the four hundred odd quebecois who were arrested and “detained for questioning” by the police.

Although the war measures act was in theory at least, meant to apply to the particularly volatile situation in quebec, its implica- tions were felt to a certain degree throughout the nation.

The ‘WMA itself had been de- signed during the first world war to deal with “those agents which presented a threat to the internal security of the nation.” It had been used following the war in part to deal with the organizers of the Winnipeg general strike of 1919. During the second world war it was used to intern japanese immi- grants in concentration camps on the west coast of the nation.

In order for the.government to adequately deal with those respon- sible for the kidnappings of Cross and Laporte, it would have been enough for authorities to punish those responsible under specified provisions of the criminal code of canada.

The government (i.e. Trudeau) possessed a logic more far-reach- ing than this, however. At the time .of the invocation of the WMA federal authorities had stated that there existed a vast conspir- acy of terrorists in the province of quebec who were intent on sub- verting the authority of municipal, provincial, and federal govern- , ments. Jean Marchand, who had been given the responsibility of keeping his countrymen in line, had stated that it was conceivable that at the time the WMA was in- voked, that many positions of res- ponsibility and prestige in quebec society had been effectively infil- trated by the FLQ. If we are to --- believe Marchand, then we can at least understand the problems the police had in obtaining informa- tion which often ended up in the hands of radio stations.

Federal authorities argued that, in this situation, the WMA was the sole instrument at its disposal by which it could apprehend those responsible for the “crimes.” In other words the federal govern- ment was perfectly willing to sus- pend the civil liberties of quebec- ois and Canadians so that it might protect them from “the terrorist activities that had manifested themselves in the evil ways of the FLQ.”

Simpson, like so many of her fel- low political prisoners of war who found themselves behind bars be- cause of their thoughts, was de- tained for only a week and during that time was questioned for only

- one brief period of fifteen min- utes.

The WMA afforded police au- _ thorities a veritable “carte

blanche” in the arrest and deten- tion of any individual without warrant or warning, as well as the search of any home without war- rant.

The civil liberties of the citizen were suspended: an individual could legally be detained incom-

municado and without being able to contact a lawyer for a period not exceeding ninety days, upon which time a charge had to be laid. But even then, bail would probably be refused.

Penny Simpson is presently on a speaking tour of Canadian uni- versity campuses for the purpose of informing people of the nature and gravity of the situation in quebec during the invocation of the war measures act. She is also busy explaining the nature of ac- tions of various civil liberties un- ions in quebec.

In her recent speaking engage- ment at wlu, Simpson encountered the usual number of questions along the line of: “Are you sug- gesting that the government ne- gotiate with terrorists? In south america, whenever authorities have acceded to the demands of political terrorists, the terrorists expressed no desire to cease their illegal activities. ”

In replying, Simpson stated: “In’ no way Ldo I condone the violence which resulted in the death of Pierre Laporte. But when you speak of violence, you must also

consider the legalized violence of the system; the violence that is reality to 11 percent of employed workers in quebec. This is the par- ticular kind of violence that kills many people who are forced to live in slum dwellings while Drap- eau wastes money on such things as expo and the Olympics. ”

But inevitably, the history of the people of quebec will prove the FLQ correct in its aims and as- pirations for the working people of quebec. The people are well ac- quainted with the fact that the violence of the FLQ does not threaten them, but rather their oppressors.

And for the four hundred odd people like Penny Simpson, the reality of their predicament pro- vided frustration and yet a sort of revelation. For most quebecois, the reality of having been oppress- ed for three hundred years pro- vides no other reality but that of desperation.

As for the proponents of fas- cism, their reality is one steeped in arrogance and corruption. That which is real is no longer real, and that which is unreal is real.

Penny Simpson was one of the first victims of the war mea- sures act. She was held for six days incommunicado. She spoke thursday afternoon at wa terloo lu theu’an university as part of and international tour.-

SW ta&es Naismith; warriors Consoled

The Simon Fraser clansmen unseated the Acadia axemen as champs in the Naismith ‘Classic Saturday with an exhibition of superb basketball beating the axemen 75-58. The tournament finale was one of the best basket: ball displays ever seen by the fans at the game and followed a very popular win by the warriors over MacMaster. Waterloo won the consolation round for the sec- ond straight year with a 93-72 drubbing of the marauders.

The tournament as a whole was quite impressive as only one team, the Brock generals, was totally outclassed in their games.

First Round

Lutheran defeated Windsor be- hind the floor leadership and scpr- ing of Rod Dean (23 points). Wind- sor was very sloppy and their shooting was atrocious.

Acadia got 60 points from Pound, Eaton and Folker to down MacMaster. Mat looks to have potential this year with the scor- ing of Steve Skerlak and ball- handling of Joe Martino.

The St. Francis Xavier x-men scored 52 points in the second half to dump the hapless generals 94-55.

Simon Fraser thumped a ner- vous, tight warrior team 83-54. Waterloo had a most disturbing first half. They outshot SFU but hit only 6 of their 44 shots and col- lected only 19 rebounds. They gave the ball away 15 times in the first half alone.

Warriors didn’t work the ball well and seldom got set for their shots. Their floor discipline was terrible on offense.

The Waterloo defense was quite good in the first half, holding the powerful clansmen to only 35 points.

Bill Robinson and Wayne Mor- gan were devastating friday as they were all tournament. Rob- inson ran the offense, drove to the basket, scored from outside, and dumped off inside to Morgan who was also very hot on the 15-foot jumpshots.

Second Round

Championship Series

Simon Fraser advanced to the Cinal by dumping the dumpy Xavier x-men 88-77. The clans- men got 27 points from Wayne Morgan and 16 from top rebound- er Larryrlark.

It was a pleasure to see St. Francis lose. A victory by them would have been a disgrace to athletics. They had four of the most out of shape athletes ever to try to tie up their shoelaces.

Acadia had an easy time of it also in the semi-finals beating Lutheran 80-56. Steve Pound was outstanding in that game, and an early zone defense by Pound,) Phipps and Eaton enabled them to get a 19-5 lead which they never gave up. Herb Stan led

the Hawks with 16 points as Rod Dean was well hassled and not as effective as the previous day.

Second Round Consolation Series

MacMaster came from behind to squeak out a 77-76 win over a much improved Windsor team. The lancers held a 39-36 lead at the half but Mat opened an 8 point lead with eight minutes left in the game, and led 77-70 with one minute left.

Late fouls enabled Windsor to .make a comeback which fell a- bout one second short as the winning basket was hooped just after the buzzer.

Both Mat and Windsor could be contenders in this year’s OQAA.

Waterloo warriors advanced to the consolation final with their most impressive game of the tournament. They destroyed Brock by a 107-46 score.- They hustled, passed, shot, fast break- ed and pressed with fierce auth- ority.

Tom Kieswetter was the most outstanding and proved that he is one of the best guards in the country when he puts his mind to maintaining some semblance of order in the warriors offence.

When Kieswetter was not in the game, Hajdu and Dimson took over and also led the team well. Laaniste finally hit some from outside and Bill Hamilton played his best game of the tournament as it seemed to be the only time that he relaxed enough to play well..

It was unfortunate that they didn’t play as well against SFU

as they did versus Brock. The outcome might have been inter- esting.

Third Round

Championships

The final round of the tourney, played Saturday night, drew a large and very responsive crowd which was treated to the most exciting basketball of the week- end.

The consolation series featured the warriors against the marau- ders from Mat. The first half was slow with the warriors seem- ingly content, to play just well enough to stay about seven points ahead. They caught fire once in the first half and stole the ball three straight times and convert- ed them all to scores. Warriors led 38-27 at half time.

Mat bounced back in the sec- ond half led by two newcomers, centre Bob Mason and guard Sam Kaknevicius. They tied the game against a listless Waterloo team with twelve and a half

-minutes to go. The tie score seemed to light a

proverbial fire under the war- riors and they simply took off, leaving Mat far behind. Kieswet- ter again led the team as they hooped 42 points in the last 12 minutes, while allowing Mat but half as many.

The warriors played extremely good defense, with Gord Lance blocking three shots and contrib- uting some needed rebounds.

The warriors were outstanding at the end of the Mat game, there is no doubt about that. It seems that they have problems

*

with consistency, especially on offense. When the press goes well and they are hustling, they pour in the points. When it is not they look bad, missing plays and taking bad fouls.

Laansite had his best game of the tourney getting 25 points. Kieswetter had 17, 11 of them in the second half.

The championship game was greeted with great enthusiasm by a near capacity crowd.

Acadia jumped into an early lead on the play of forward Rick Eaton. Things began to look bad for SFU when star guard Bill Robinson picked up three quick fouls in the first quarter. The axemen built up a twelve point lead with a minute to go in the half, as they controlled the boards and got 18 points from Eaton. A flurry at the end of the half by SFU closed the gap to eight points; 37-29.

The coolness and discipline of the Acadia team made it seem impossible that they could be caught from behind by anyone which made the second half ex- tremely hard to believe.

SFU pulls reversal

SFU pulled a complete rever- sal of the first half as they got control of the boards and shut off Eaton’s scoring. Coach Koot- nekoff made two fine coaching moves. He moved Frank Rotter- ing over to cover Eaton, and switched Robinson on to Peter Phipps where he could cover more losely and stay out of foul trouble. He had covered Pound early in the game.

Clark (reaching), Morgan (15) and Robinson led fantastic SFU second half comeback.

Robinson put on an incredible show in the second half, running the offense and playmaking like most of the fans had never seen. He sunk nearly every shot he . took, netting 14 points in the sec- ond half.

Wayne Morgan got hot from about 15 feet out and contributed 18 points in the half. Along with Rottering and Clark he helped corale the rebounds.

The SFU defense was nothing short of awesome. They held the powerful Acadia team to 21 points in the half, most of them after the game wasout of reach. Pound was held to 2 points after Alex Devlin began covering him. All in all it was almost a storybook half for the westcoasters.

The tournament was very SUC- cessful drawing, apparently, very knowledgeable fans. It was a pleasure to listen to the support they gave the two teams in the final. Apparently it was as good a response as they usually get at home.

Stars

The tourney all stars were Pound, Eaton, Kieswetter, Clark and of cohrse, Robinson, who was also the Most Valuable Player.

And what of the warriors in light of their second annual con- solation. They seem to lack two things-consistency and confid- ence. An inexperienced, pressing team is expected to make mis- takes but they have yet to estab- lish that they care to hustle con- sistently.

Confidence seems to be their big stumbling block. They played their best ball against Brock whom they knew they could beat and their worst against SFU, whom they seemed to feel they couldn’t. They were ‘up’ for the SFU game but they were too nervous to play a together game. ’ The fact that they scored more points than anyone else in the tournament should prove to them that they simply have to play their own game in order to be an extremely good ball team.

L It is interesting to note that the two best teams in the touina- ment were schools that believe in and practice athletic scholar- ships.

The response of the fans seems to raise the interesting question of education. When .and if fans in the OQAA, for example, are exposed to top quality ball will they be happy to accept the play of some of the weak sisters in the league?

This argument has, however, another side. Scholarships do present some problems ’ which are very serious but often go un- benounced to the fans. In the words of Phil Ochs; Tossing the dice, You pay the price So you can compare. ’

Warriors are back in action here at home when they play the York yeopecple Wednesday night at 8pm.

Timothy I T’S DOUBTFUL THAT even an Eaton’s pub-

lication today would write of Timothy Eaton the way a company history wrote of the found-

er in 1919: “He reminds one of Cromwell smashing into the

effete Parliament of Charles I; or of Cecil Rhodes founding a commonwealth among savages. ”

The Cecil Rhodes and the savages part would’ have application to the attitudes of some of his later heirs, but Timothy was a rather straight- forward, even dour Presbyterian-turned-Methodist who arrived in Toronto in 1869 with $6,500 and settled down to the business of making money.

He paid the $6,500 for Jenning’s dry goods busi- ness on Yonge street and embarked on what was, to his just credit, a revolution in Canadian retailing.

The money he brought with him came from seven years’ partnership in a store with his older brother in St. Mary’s, near Stratford. Timothy had always earned his money by hard labor in the best Presbyterian tradition.

Since he had gone through a hard, seven-year app

f enticeship in a store in Ulster before he emi-

gra ed to Canada, he had an appreciation of what it meant to work hard for a trying employer him+ self, concerned about his staff’s welfare.

He would lead the country in introducing short- er working hours for his staff, and paid welfare and pensions before most employers had heard of these terms. But he could not abide labor unions,i when they arose toward the latter part of his life - that interfered with the intense paternalism and strict authority with which he ran his store. That- much, his heirs learned from him.

The retail revolution Timothy Eaton launched in Canada was based on two tenets:

l cash only, instead of the credit and running charge system that most retail stores in Canada then worked on,

l one price only, which wiped out the dickering over prices that was the accepted shopping method in Canada.

Later, . “satisfaction guaranteed or money re- turned” was to be a slogan that shook some of

~ Eaton’s competitors. Then Timothy learned the values of advertising, and that became another ingredient of the rise of the Eaton empire: con- stant, saturation advertising.

His rural ingenuity extended to paying the horse-drawn streetcar drivers to cry out “Every- body out for Eaton’s” when they pulled up before the store - a modern day- equivalent being the curious way Eaton’s has direct ac’cess to the Tor- onto and Montreal subways, so that a large part of the passenger traffic can’t get out without walking through the store.

But the major revolution was the Eaton’s cata- logue. In a fragmented country where vast num- bers of people had no access to modern products, this was the only way to shop. In the early parts of the culture, an indispensable text that was used not only to shop, but also to learn English.

When Timothy died in 1907, the massive Winnipeg branch had been opened, #mail order was a separate unit, and the firm had its own buying offices throughout the world and employed 9,000 people. He left his heirs a personal fortune estimated at anywhere from $3,000,000 to $15,000,000. Sales that year totalled over $22,000,000.

Jack Eaton, later to become Sir John Eaton, an unreconstructed reactionary, took over the firm. He and his wife Flora became the unofficial first family of Canada - patrons of the arts, mansion builders, owners of yachts, villas, private railroad cars, horse stables.

Under Jack Eaton,,and later Robert Y. Eaton and John David Eaton (current head of the clan ) , the empire grew to become the third largesl employer in Canada after the federal governmen and ‘the railroads. Its 50,000 year-round emloyees are supplemented by 15,000 part-time workers over Christmas.

The Eaton family is the sole owner of 48 depart- ment stores across Canada, five warehouses and service buildings, factories, 352 catalogue sales offices, large tracts of strategic downtown land, and the personal Eaton’s estates and fortune. The tag on the Eaton empire is estimated at $400,000,00( When John David’s home in Toronto was robbed

’ over a year ago, the jewels stolen were valued al $1,000,000.

The Eaton empire is more than that. It is one of the most powerful concentrations of

wealth, economic power and political influence in Canad,a, ranking, with E.P. Taylor’s Argu: corporation, the Canadian Pacific Railway; Power corporation. It is also an empire that wield: this imposing power whenever something stand2 in its way.

ideas,‘,Lady Eaton said, ‘For I am not one of these ‘votes for women’ women. I do not see thal women have gained much by the vote - it has merely complicated the problem because the vote is not restricted to intelligent women. I think the vote is rather a nuisance myself.’

“Lady Eaton considers that a woman can find ‘no greater sphere of endeavor than in her own home. ‘I may sound old-fashioned in saying that, ’ Lady Eaton said, ‘but I believe that women have lost sight of that fact to a certain extent-and that they are coming back to it.’ ”

On november 16 she sang at Massey Hall for Toronto’s elite, and the Toronto Star burbled : ”

VOICE OF RARE SWEETNESS

CHARMS TORONTO AUDIENCE Of her preparations for court presentation,

Lady Eaton leaves us this account of London manners :

“We had taken instructions in the court curtsy from Miss Violet Vanbrugh, one of London’s well- known actresses, and she had been an excellent teacher. She would say, ‘Walk up to me,’ then, after making us sink back on the supporting foot, she would order us to do it again, ‘and remember the earth will hold you up, and don’t be afraid to step up firmly.’ It was important that we lift our heads after the moment of the full drop of the curtsy... There was some difference of opinion in London about the matter of lifting one’s face and smiling when presented to one’s sovereign, but Miss Vanbrugh insisted on it... How Their Majesties managed to retain their gracious composure during a9 evening of eight hundred presentations was a mystery, but also a lesson for the rest of us.”

On one of her visits to the Winnipeg store, she made “a morning tour” of the mail order buildings with Eaton’s chief in that city, H.M. Tucker. Here she recounts how she gave the unfortunate Mr. Tucker a lesson in employee relations : “When we returned to his office, I looked at him and said, ‘Mr. Tucker, that was just useless.’ He asked what I meant. ‘Well,’ I said, ‘our people were looking for some friendly contact with us, and neither of us gave it to them. Neither one of us smiled.’ His reply was, ‘But I don’t smile readily.’ And to that, I said, ‘You’ll have to learn, and we’re both going to do better this afternoon. ’ After lunch we continued our tour, going this time through the store, and I’m glad to record that Mr. Tucker smiled and .I smiled too. I’m positive our’.after- noon’s activities netted infinitely better results than the morning’s. ”

The temptation to quote more of Lady Eaton’s gems of managerial wisdom and passing observa- tions on the problems of wealth and station’is hard to resist, but suffice it to point out that her mem- oirs are available from any public library in this country and come highly recommended.

Thus for more than 20 years, the- newspapers glittered with mentions of Lady Eaton, with des- criptions of her residences, of her charitable do- nations, of the -gala events she attended. John Craig Eaton was Sir John, and with Lady Eaton they were “Canada’s first family.” They were’met by flocks of reporters when theytdisembarked from the luxury liners after their sojourns abroad. Lady Eaton’s pronouncements on the passing scene were dutifully recorded, her attire and grace spread over the social pages of the Toronto and Montreal papers. And though Jack Eaton was a more hard-headed sort who shied away from this sort of publicity, Lady Eaton played her role well.

Here was an Edwardian Canada, a native mer- chant family that sought the splendour and status of a colonial aristocracy. Here was the highest ornamental developn-ient of an indigenous capi- talist elite.

33 cents Exerpts from testimony by Eaton’s factory

employees before the Royal Commission on

Price Spreads, 1935

By Mr. Bullen (Lawyer, ILGWU) Miss Nolan:

Q. Miss Nolan, were you employed by the T. Eaton ,company limited, of Toronto?

A. Yes, 1 was.. . Q. Adn when you first went there what was

your basis of pay? A. $11 was guarant&d (per 44-hour week on

piecework). Q. And after that did it ever change? A. Yes, I got $12.50. Toward the end of 1928,

it was riased to $12.50. Q. And what was the result, first of all,

physically, from this drop in rates? (Piece-work rate of $3.60 for making a dozen voile dresses, I

workers union (ILGWU) and Eaton-s, a picture emerged of the sweat that was the base of the glitter of Ardwold, .the Flor&ce villa, the court receptions, and the ecclesiastical silence of the press.

The witnesses before the’ committee (it was made a full royal commission in the fall of 1934) admit that working conditions were not among the worst until the death of sir John Eaton, and the onset of the depression. But they give a pic- ture of where EatonS transferred the misery that arose from the lower sales of the depression period.

The, minimum wage in Ontario at the time was $12.50 for a 44-hour week. More precisely, the law required only that 80 per cent of a department average $12.50, and the other 20 per cent were un- covered. The companies, therefore, could and did play the averages game with employee+salaries.

When the slump in buying came, its implications were immediately dumped on the factory em- ployees. Where a dressmaker would earn $3.60 a dozen for her work on a particular voile dress, in 1933 her rate of earning was knocked down to $1.75 for the same dress, and the same work. For an eight-hour day she would, if she worked very hard, take home $2.50. Even in the depres- sion, this bordered on the outrageous. EatonS de facto policy at the time was so petty that if a wo- man earned 33 3/4 cents on a piece,. she did not receive the fraction, but was computed at 33 cents.

With styles becoming more complicated, and the dresses harder .to make, the rates were not raised but drastically lowered, and the women expected to produce more, not less. Witnesses speak of being “badgered and harassed” and 1 “threatened if you did not make the $12.50 you would be fired.” They were clocked by stop watches disciplined for slow work by being sent home to sit out a week with no wages. If they came five minutes late for work, they were frequently locked out of ths plant and forced to go home without earning anything that day.

Of course if an employee were starving, she could have reported to the welfare ‘office at Eaton’s It was a matter of company pride that it-had a generous welfare office. It is in the nature of this sort of corporate paternalism to take care of the needy - and also to make sui-e that the welfare office would never be underpopulated. Ea- @n’s took care of #its sick and destitute. But why would it never t&slate ‘the funds available for

/ welfare into a decent wage? If the workers received a decent wage, they

might get notions of having earned it, instead of having received it. And when that sort of sys$em entered, it would threaten the existence of Ard- wold. It might lead to such violations of “family” corporatism as unions.. .

On july 11, 1934, an incident occurred that clar- ified Eaton’s attitude towards unions. ’ In march and april of that year, the women of one department organized into a local of the in- ternational ladies’ garments workers union. Witnesses before the commission testified that they had been warned against organizing into a union. A manager named Clendining said to the girls that they didn’t need a union and told one “how would she like to go home with $6 a week and he said some of the fellows in his office went home with $6 a week; and she told him he ought to be ashamed to say that they got that. . . He told us we were out of our class, that we were yixing with the people of Spadina.” (union officials - Spadina Road is Toronto’s dressmaking district. )

But the women joined the union - 38 in that section, and began to ask for higher rates on some of the dresses they were working on. Eaton’s made short work of them.

,On july 11, after several days of asking for higher ‘rates on a specific dress, the committee represent- ing the women went to see management (a Mr. Moore and Clendining) to a_sk again if they would raise the rate, and were told definitely not - “take it or leave it.” So the women stopped work that afternoon and waited to see what would hap- pen. They were summoned to see Moore and Clen- dining.

“...and Mr. Clendining asked each of US how long we ‘had worked there. We told him. He wrote that down. Then he said ‘Are you willing to work on this style ?’ We said no, we would like to have the price raised. He said ‘Well, you can wait until 5:3O. If you cannot make up your mind to work then, we no longer require you. ’ ”

The women asked for passes out of the building to see their union officials, and were granted them. The officials urged them to go back to work and press for the higher rate without a work stoppage.

“We went back the next morning ready to work... We went back and the time keeper would not let us pass.. . We went up to the 9th floor. We were ready to go downstairs to take our machines and he told us our cards were out.. . We were locked out. We did not strike, we were locked out?

which was dropped in 1933 to $1.75 a dozen for same dresses and same work)

A. Well, you had to work so bard, you were driven so fast that, it just became impossible to make $12.50, and you were a nervous wreck. The girls cried. I was h,ysterical myself. It almost drove me insane.

Q. Was that condition general or did it only happen to you?

A. It was general. All the girls were the same. Q. And did you break down by reason of it all? A. Yess, I went into hysterics several times and

I had to go to the hospital and the nurse said, “What is the matter? You girls are always com- ing here.”

* * * Mrs. Annie S. Wells: -\

0. Would you mind indicating to the commission from your standpoint as a worker why you disput- ed the pay for this dress? Please describe the dress, I what you got per dozen for making it, and why you objected to that price?

A. Well, this dress was a cotton crepe, and we had to make the blouse with double fronts, and a frill in between on the one side. It had a raglan sleeve. That is a sleeve that is not set’ in; it came up to the neck here. We had to make the skirt, which consisted of three straight lengths in the front, and two pleats let in, and this had to be stitch- ed down on the outside and fini,shed off with a little stitching. That was that. I forget now whether the back had a plea& in it or not; I think it had one; anyway, we had to make that skirt, and then we had to join it to the blouse, and we had to sew that bow that is on the shoulder but sewn in such a position that the bow could be threaded through a button-hole. It was not just the trimming. Then we had to make the belt loops.

Q. How many? A. Two belt loops and put them on the waistline

for the belt to thread through. And you got $1.15 a dozen.

0. How much? A. $1.15 for that amount of work.

By mr. Sommerville: (member of committee) 0. That is about 9% cents for a dozen of these

*dresses?. A. For that amount of work. 0. You get 9% cents for doing what you have

described? \ A. 9?h cents. .

By Hon. mr. Stevens: (member of committee) Q. What does the dress sell for?

A. The selling price is $1.59 each. It is marked here. (Later)... It took an ordinary four and a half to five hours to make a dozen.

* * * Miss Amy Tucker: ’

Q. It has been stated here that Eaton’s do , countenance and recognize unions. Have you any- thing to say about that?

A. When we fried to organize, Mr. Clendining said “You girls can join a union if you please but that does not mean to say that this firm will rec- ognize a union. This’ firm will not recognize a union. ’ ’

Q. Who told you that? A. Mr. Clendining. 0. Anything else? A. And then he went on to say “Of course we

recognize Unions. ” ’ And I said “You do in the printing, because it happens to be government work and it must have the union label on it. But otherwise you do not recognize unions.” And in all our talk he would ,try to bririg in racial question, about the Jewish p‘eople, telling us we should not belong to the union at all that was controlled by Jews. * * *

/ In li34, a remarkable figure in Canadian poli- tics took aim at the big companies in Canada and went on a private radio and pamphlet campaign to expose the conditions of workers in factories, and the transgressions of high finance. He was all the more remarkable because he was the Minister of Trade and Commerce in the Conservative governnient of R.B. Bennett. This man, Henry Herbert Stevens, hurt the Bennett government so much with his attacks that he was persuaded to resign in October of that same year.

But he had managed to leave a legacy - part ot which was the Stevens committee of price spreads, as swash-buckling a one-man attack on private interest and its role in the depression as has ever rolled over Bay Street.

The favorite target of this curious Red Tory ’ was the retail trade. And that meant Eaton’s.

.For the first time in history, with batteries of company lawyers kicking and screaming the un- touchable company was forced to bare its dealings, wages, capital, profits andlosses.

As the Eaton dress factory workers, women who struggled at living on the prevailing $12.50 minimum weekly wage, in Ontario were brought to testify about working conditions, salaries, bat- tles between the international ladies’ garments

continued over page

After 5:30 r&one could get into the factory-building -_ it wa,s cleared. by then. The women could not have been- !ogically expected to turn up at 5:30 to announce their intenti.on to- returp to work. With surgical efficience, Eaton’s had divesteditself of d union group. b ,

One of the more astonishing distortibns in the recent official history of Eaton’s - “The Store that Timothy Built” by Willaim Stephenson - deals with the very critical and revealing series of hearings by the Stevens committee. -

This is how the book writes off the damaging testi- mony :

“Ifi june, 1934, to take their minds off unemployment and the breadlines, Canadians were treated to a circus staged by the federal government. -

Included in the charges the firm was eventually asked to answ*r were:

That Eaton’s practice of featuring ‘loss leaders’ cduld wreck the niarket for any smaller re‘tailer dealing mainly in that commodity;

That Eaton’s’ system of selling ‘distress goods’ treat-<, ed havoc among smaller retailers ;

That Eaton’s received special discounts from man- ufactukers for larger orders, so that it could sell these products at far below most of their competitors’ prices; - That Eaton’s put pressure on suppliers-not to sell to

others at such discounts; That Eaton’s mail-order department took everything

out and put ngthing back into areas tihere it flourish- ed;

That the only remason Eaton’s could-afford to sell at such low prices even- with such dybious tactics was be- cause the firm paid very low wages and forced factory workers td toil at ‘intolerable speeds.’

The book claims Eaton’s had “no trouble” rdfuting these claims and that “all the other headline-making claims of ‘unfaiq competition’ and ‘slave labor’ were refuted with similar ease.” _

The ease with which Eaton’s refuted these charges is, to anyone who leafs through the- hundreds .of pages of ‘tesximony, somewhat dubious. A reading of the report leaves no doubt thatkEaton’s was raked over the coals and rtin over by a steamroller.

T)le book continues to portray an utterly sh/aken R.Y. Eaton (then president),- his, feelings hurt by the inves- tigation. It reads: “,... R.Y. chose to view the “whole in- quiry. as a warning that for a firm like Eaton’s - the nation’s storekeeper, willing servant and watchdog of excellence - profit must be considered, for lack of a

. better work, 2s sinful, success. Never again must _ thereibe even the flimsiest excuse for an investigation.”

This magnanimity obviously failed - despite the best efforts of the firm, of course - becuse it is widely esti- mated that Eaton’s is worth $400,000,000 today. Nice try, though, R,Y. _

But as if the poor Eaton’s weren’t hurt enough by the scurrilous allegations of warnen earning $12.50 a week, Stephenson notes in his book that “. . .ihe Stevens com- mittee was to make R.Y. even more tionservative thre h;$asbeen before. ”

: “An even more notable manifestation of _ I this unltra-conservatism -occurred in September, 1934,

when a Telegram reporter, in his description of the labor day parade, hoted that several union marchers ‘dipped their flags in sorrow as they passed Eaton’s.’

“RY demanded a retraction. The editor replied polite- ly that he had-checked the story and found it to be true, so there was no need for a retraction,”

The picture of the poor, distraught man, wounded to the soul’ by the Stevens committee, running around trying to censor newspapers, coupled with the ‘suggestion that this was all the fault of the Stevens committee for hav-- ing made him an ‘*ultra-conservative”’ - this is SO in- credible as to border on genius. _ .

_ , Id~eolOgy > 0 N THE NIGHT OF december 4, 1951, Eileen Tall-

man, an organizer for the united steelworkers of . America,, and Lynn Williams, a young -organizer

for the CZO sat over a beer in a tavern on Yonge street, - both in an elated mood.

On the same night, in‘ the Eaton family hqome, Lady Eaton, John David Eaton, several directors and man- agers sat diSpirited, waiting for the same moment.

Williams, now with the united steelworkers of America in Torpnto, recalled the night:, -

“We couldn’t believe it had happened. We had been j

organizing for three years - it’s impossible to, describe the energy that wencinto that. Despite all the obstacles -

‘the company propaganda campaign, the raises that were calculated to pull the rug from under us, the Qgh ,turnover of staff- - despite all that -Eileen and I were sure we had won. The managers were pretty depressed because they also thought we had won.

“That moment was the-first hard lesson I got in labor organizing. So close.. . ” .

Out of 9,914 Eaton’s employees‘eligible to vote in the Toronto stores.on whether or not to join a union, 4,020 voted for the union, 4,880 voted against, 259 vallots were spoiled.

The elation in the Eaton home, it is reported, was un- bounded.

The retail, wholesale and department store union (RWDSU) had begun organizing at Eaton’s in Toronto during the summe-F of 1947. Because of the magnitude of the task - almost 10,000 workers of the 13,000 were eligible for unionization - a special committee of the Canadian congress of labor (affiliated with the CIO) was formed to orgaqize the-store into lo~a1’1000.

“People’s dissatisfaction_” says Williams today, “was primarily over salaries ‘- there were wide discrepan- cies between..people who did essentially the same jobs. Women were paid much @ss than men for doing the same job.

. “And there ~8s the pater;alism of the place, - you had to make sure you were in the manager’sfavor or you were out, they coritrolled you completely, raises and promotions were not given ofi any general standard, but frequently on a totally preferential system.

Eaton’s had not progressed far, in relative terms, since 1935. Not, at &east, in wage terms. Here are rough

\ average estimates from a salary survey done by union stewards at the time: (Bear in mind these are wages recently hiked by general increases to throw the union off balance) : - Group Average Wage Saleswomen in Notions, Statidnery, etc. (with A - ‘some years of seniority) $36 Saleswoman, specialized selling. (salary plus - commission) - - $40-44

Salesman, shoes, sporting goods and most straight - salary departments . Salesman, draperies: men’s furnishings (salary plus commission)

$55

$60-75

Starting rates were from $5 to ii0 a week less. Differ- ent rates apply according to age and marital and family status, even if for thesame job.

The most salient feature of these wage rates is the much lower rates for women who might be doing the same- job. This is a continuing part of Eaton’spolicy. -

In the large restaurant‘ departments, salaries were lower by $2 to $4 per week, and major grievances, according to union surveys, were “speed-up, layoffs, reducing employees’ hours, and job doubling.‘. Older women are particularly -insecure as when they become too slow they are got rid of in one way or another...a fair number. of D.P.‘g (displaced person - officialese for immigrants)’ are hired for food sections. .Eaton’s

. tries to make the D.P.‘s do more work than others.” In the mail order department, unlike the showrooms

which “are kept in a condition that is reasonably pleasant to the eye,” things are “in a state of disrepair. The de- partments are completely void of air conditioning, with inadequate heat and fresh-air for winter, and seltering temperatures during the warm summer months.. . ”

With these wages and . conditions, however, Eaton’s was not much w?rse th+n Simpson l s or the entire retail indust& At -the time; the retail field was the second- lowest paid among the nine leading industries in Cana- da. Industrial workers were largtily organized, store employees %ware not. Thus the cavpaign to organize Eaton’s held .a prime importance to the whole labor movement - the Toronto stores were the key to organ- izing the, retail industry, and the CCL spent $300,000 over three years to try to do it.

The campaign carried on over three years, despite obstruction and red tape from the Ontario government

---on certification rights, despi@ turnover .” of staff, apd.. most of all, despite the company counter-campaign.’ .

Williams admits the company fought back with a calcu- lated, intelligent campaign that spared no costs either. - A group of., employees “spontaneously” formed a

counter association called (shades of Lady E-aton’s

Mussolini days) “Thg loyal Eatonians”, though the company insisted it was not behind the formation Qf this curious loyalist movement. The group produce a series of slickly-written pamphlets attacking the union

- that showed clear signs of company help. ’ Examples of the contents of some pamphlets: ‘?Vhy are these outsiders so concerned with your

“welfare’?*‘They. say they want you to enjoy the beneifts and privileges they enjoy. Obviously they know little 1 about you or this company! ,

“Let’s do a little figurGing: ,

“Local 1000’s dues are now fixed at $1.50 a month. If they go no higher the C-IO could take no less than.. . $100,000, A YEAR OUT OF YOUR POCKETS! ‘. -

“If dies go up to $2.50 or $3.00 a month as they have in many unions, the union take would be somewhere in the neighborhood of . . .$400,000 A YEAR!

“Multiply khat by the scores of department stores and thousands of retail outlets in Canada and you begin to get a glimpse of thi! rich price the CIO is grasping for. You are the first step. * _

“TO REPEAT: “You ar? being asked to cast your whole future, your

livelihood for youfself and your dependents, into the hands of strangers who lack any understanding of your work, your problems or your company’s, and whose motives are concealed behind exaggerated promises and carping criticism.

“Before you surrender your future into their hands, --‘-cbunt what you have in benefits, rights, working condi- +

tions, opportunities and what you- can- reasonably hoIje to enjoy as the company marches forward.”

The post-mortem report done for the’ CIO attributes the defeat, by a margin of 10 per cent, to “anti-union campaign put on by the company during the final weeks’ of the vote” and the general wage increases. It con- cludes tersely - “and this 1inT worked. ”

It did more than once. , John Devere&a former employee of the wage admin-

istratioh office in the Winnipeg store, recalls being sent in 1964 to survey wages in the town of Dauphin, Manitoba, where Eaton’s had a small store and res- taurant. He had been sent on a routine survey of wages, and was about to report that he found them relatively

, geared to the local rates. But suddenly the Winnipeg office informed the Dauphin store that their wages were being hiked by, “over $10 at least,” according to Deverell.

. “The reason was simple,” he said, “It was expalined to me by the chief wage administrator for Winnipeg and the western region, my boss, Garth Arnason. He said that a Dominion store had just been organized into the union in the same town, and there -were many restaurant workers in that store too. The comparison in wage rates to Eaton workers would have been_ a (little too obvious. -.

“So the -salaries were immediately jacked to stave off any grounds for unionizing attempts ,by the employees.

“Arnason told me: any Eaton’s wage administrator ,that allows a union to be formed in his jurisdiction is immediately fired.”

Today, the average wage/of a saleswoman in the Tor- onto store is $1.70 an hour, and that of a salesman $2

. an hour. A t the h WDS2/ office in the Dntario federation of

la&or building, they say ‘“hundreds” of calls are receiv- ed annually from EatonS employees asking why there is - no move to unionize them. ITh-ey are regretfully told of 1951.

“It’s hard to understand how we lost,” Williams says today. “Maybe collective bargaining was not that ac- cepted then. We came awfully close, nevertheless. It’s the paterna!ism, though. And that’s an elusive idea - how the. men and women, the older ones of course, really believed all that Lady, Eaton, and the family,

1 company stuff. They wanted to believe it. They-gave ,~ them the frills and told them they were getting the sub- stance. -.

“Eaton’s is different, and more dangerous. That place was run on an ideology. It regally controlled people.

“I remember we once put out a pamphlet-on- the Eaton -. mansion, and the incredible, gross luxuries in there. It ’ wak a castle, something out of another time. We thought - 1 the constrast to the working conditions woulf hit the

workers, if we described this place. , “But I .remember people really resented that piece.

;They really thought we should not have talked abouh the I family, and their private place.”

WEASELS RIPPED MY FLESH -MOTHERS OF INVENTION Frank Zappa is schizo. Half

of him lives in 1956, in the body and soul of Rueben Sano, ex- leader of the JetsThe other side lives approximately now, give or take two or twelve years, and is known to assume various guises.

Rueben is the ‘undisputed King of 1956 mushy rock and roll. His music embodies all of the quali- ties which made r’n’r the music of millions of chartered ac- countants, gas station attendants and disc jockeys. Rueben is fif- teen years behind his time.

The other Frank Zappa is more difficult to define. He is a hard rock superstar, a prince of the put-on-down, and a serious composer. He could be three hundred and I fifteen years be- hind his time.

Up to now, the two parts of Zappa’s personality have re- mained relativelv distinct and separate. On \;Veasels ripped my flesh, they have come to- gether, and the result is less than fanfuckingtastic.

Rueben gets the spotlight on a few cuts, as My guitar wants to kill your mama, giving way to his alter-ego, as on Prelude to the afternoon of a sexually aroused gas Fnask, while they both combine to produce such numbers as Directly from my heart to you.

Where Rueben has a hand in the proceedings, things are fine. There is something about mid- fifties rock that is good, and Rue- ben and the Jets know what it is. My guitar . . . . also gives Zappa a chance to show what a fine guitarist he is, while he con- jures up graphic images of love gone sour.

Zappa the serious composer makes things difficult for record reviewers, however. His music

is experimental, with lots of electronic effects mixed with musical theory. Sometimes he seems absolutely brilliant, other times he sounds like your record player is broken.

The title song from Weasels ripped my flesh actually does sound like the record player is broken, which may come out really neat at a live performance but is irritating at home.

Btiby, you caused me to suffer \ by Charlie Manson chevron staff

Way back in October of 1970, two budding young musicians teamed up to produce a brand of music intended to incite its listeners to revolution and other unnatural acts.

Together they sat down and hammered out about ten songs, worked out some arrangements and burst upon the music world as Running dog and his electric lackey.

Their first performances were confined to a dank, dark, hovel in the heart of the slums of Waterloo (possibly alluded to in their song, Masochist’s love waltz.)

Here on campus, radio water- loo managed to score what may be the coup of the year by record- ing the group for their people’s music program. This show was

aired for the first time last tues- day afternoon, and was an im- mediate blockbuster. Reaction to the taping was so overwhelming that it was played twice more on friday.

One dreary listener, Gabriel Dumont, was heard to remark “Who the fuck are those guys?” thus setting a trend for the re- sponse to come.

Perhaps the group could best be described by the words of the pair’s manager, Rompin’ Roddy Riel. “These boys are definitely a sign of the existent- ialism which throughout the university , and consequently so- ciety, has proliferated itself. ”

Through his poignant verse, Running Dog is able to transmit to the world the burning passion which inhabits his soul. Some- times terse, sometimes tender,

always terrific. Feel the emotion in Transylvania sweethearts : “Let me feel the sweet peck of your teeth in my neck/And drihk till my viens run dry.” Here is the true expression of bound- less love.

Their songs are reflections of drama of their own lives, culled from their own personal exper- iences. Consider the torment and agony in the heart of the man who wrote “Baby I’ve got you under my skin/I’m knocking at your door so won’t you let me in/And don’t let me catch you with another man’s gland in your hand.” These, and the other lines make The chauvinism rag truly a classic.

This song also -features some fine side work, with “Noodles” Notes Anderson on humazoo, Little Jimmy Klinck on penny whistle, Gerrit “Groover” Huv- ers on harp, and, on lights, Ian “The Easterner” Ferguson.

Enter Exit he King> On Wednesday, december 9,

Blackfriars, the production company of the drama and thea- tre arts programme of the de- partment of english, university of Waterloo, presents the second production of the season, Exit the king by Eugene Ionesco. The production is directed by Karl Wylie, director of the humanities building theatre, and designed by Mary Kerr.

Ionesco is one of the most pro- duced playwrights of short plays, yet his full-length and more re- cent works have received rela- tively few productions. Exit the king, written in 1962, was first performed in North America in 1967 by the APA repertory company at Los Angeles.

Exit- the king is a highly allegorical drama, somewhat like a medieval morality play, concerning the last two hours in the life of a once very powerful king, Berenger the First. His

armies have been defeated, the dikes have been breached, the boundaries of the realm are shrinking. Berenger is surround- ed by his two wives and a few members of his court in his throne room, all that seems to be left of his crumbling world. Ber-

enger the First has been a micro-. cosm of God and State, possess- ing the powers of creation ad destruction, but these powers are no longer his to command. And so as the/king goes, so goes tste state. For Ionesco, the death of the king is also the death of so- ciety’s beliefs. and values, its outmoded and corrupt truth. Exit the king, exit everyone.

Yet as a play of an individual, Exit the king iS a powerful IX?-

minder of the transience, the ephemeral nature of .man and the dreadful irony that man seems incapable of discovering life until faced with death.

- Is the “pig” really “bourgeois?” by Paul Piccone

3

L ATELY ,- THE epithet “bourgeois pig” has joined many of the old

standard invectives decorating the rhe- _ toric of radical discourse.

’ Yet, while there is no problem in un- derstanding the “pig” half of the slogan- readily identifiable with the “oinking”

. variety of a certain species of mam- mals - the same cannot be said for the other “bourgeois” half. Besides conno- ting evil, corruption and immorality, “bourgeois” is an adjective that rapidly fades away in the obscurity of profound marxist theory. Why does the “bour- geois’ ’ catch so much flak in the rad- icals’ rhetoric?

Historically, ‘ ‘bourgeois’ ’ referred simply to the mannerism of the towns- people in a context where the over- whelming majority of the population lived in the countryside.

It depicted a certain practical ap- proach to everyday problems. As such, it was essentially a non-ethical character- ization of a rising class still checkmated between a pompous and historically ob- solete nobility and an ignorant and super- stitious peasantry.

In the late middle ages, when the bour- geoisie as a social class first came upon the western european scene, -it was es-\ sentially progressive and constituted by a class of people whose social position was intrinsically ambiguous.

On the one hand, they were part of the lower nobility displaced by the iron laws of primogeniture, while on the other, they were socially powerless and, consequently, identical to the peasantry that they so much abhorred. But, as feudal society gave way to capitalism through the development of new modes of production, the bourgeoisie rapidly took over de fecto power. Subsequent- ly, through revolution, it also acquired de jure control of society.

Thus far, ‘ ‘bourgeois’ ’ simply refers to the way of life of a relatively sophis- ticated urban group, whose sophistica-

’ tion stands out precisely in relation to the backwardness and “idiocy of rural life. ” It is only after the bourgeoisie came into power that it became the rul- ing and decadent class with respect to the proletariat - the former peasants who had emigrated to the cities to earn a living no longer possible in the country- side.

, But why did the bourgeoisie become degenerate and historically obsolete? Without indulging here in a lengthy phil- osophical elaboration, it needs only be pointed out that there is one major rea- son why this class is degenerate and, con- sequently, it connotes evil, corruption and immorality.

According to Marx, the bourgeoisie turns out to be as bad as it is usually depicted since it is a class that does not 184601: Since labor is the only kind of activity which, in creating the object, also creates the subject, only the labor- ing class can actually become educa- ted and morally responsible to the extent that it does create through labor.

The bourgeois class- does not labor: thus, it is not even able to determine its own moral principles. These principles, then, must be borrowed from tradition and, consequently, are externally im- posed. Reduced to a merely passive social role, the bourgeoisie becomes also a passive class unable to creste anything at all. To depict anything as “bourgeois,” therefore, amounts to con- traposing the active to the passive, life against death. All this is well and good at the theoretical level.

What is overlooked is to what an ex- tent it applies to reality. Is it really the case today that the bourgeoisie does not labor? In this case, all students that take great pains to label their advenaries as “bourgeois” must be simply projecting their own predicament on others, since students do not “work” in the strict sense of the term.

The emptiness of this epithet as, its

L ET’S JUST SAY I caught you crying for reasons I discovered long ago. It’s autumn and it’s snowing, and like the geese I’ll go. Life’s a vicious

cycle and like the leaves I’ll fall, my tears are in the by-line that’s all . . . . _ s . . A wolf pack is howling, the moonlite is dim, it’s hard to be following, an ab-

straction like him. But the decision made by Truman, was it human, I was just curious. . .

Did you see Hallowe’en as a question of Timing, or the ill Timing of a ques- tion. That was last weeks miracle cure for “remember what happened last week!”

-

But with Thanksgiving again in the states . . . . You understand the logic of the Hall,owe’en question? Why don’t the Americans celebrate Xmas a week early? Their Thanksgiving spoils our weekend and makes us feel pretty small about our past festivity. So why not spoil Xmas for us too. Have it a week earl- ier than the rest of the world . . , . Ah, but then frontier enterprise is dead.

Speaking as a dead frontier enterpriser from here on in, I can only lament for the loss of Big-Things. The New Corporate Thought, Media control, Think Tanks, and Unionism: Gad, what have they done to freedom?

Every great idea came from a little man. A wierdo. An innovator. He shook up the world around him and changed it. But in the past quarter century the Corporate Thought Bins just tremble at each other. Meanwhile in a backyard workshop, in a small, central american town, John (blank), the inventor of the earth tremoring (blank) a revolutionary device that would alter society as we know it, is methodically slinging a noose over the beam and sadly dragging his workbench over. He pauses, remembers the Reverend Brown’s reaction to his idea and climbs up . . . .

He kicks the works to the floor in a shattering calamity that he hears only half of, for the rope draws tight. There was an ulp and a bow string twung from tense cord and the last tinkles of glass from the floor.
