mpri. Imprint is an editorially independent student newspgper pub- lished by the Journalsim Club, a club within the Federation of Students, University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Ontario. It is solely dependent on advertising revenue for its financing. Imprint pub- lishes every Thursday; mail should be addressed to “The Jour- nalism Club, i=C 140”. We are typeset by Dumont Press l

Graphix; paste-up is done on campus.

It’s great to see everyone back, rested up from all that Christ- mas debauchery and ready for some good hard work, at least for a week or two, while New Year’s resolutions are still in vogue. By popular demand, there is no decadence in this issue. I am told that people are sick and tired of it. (For some good clean fun, come down and see us sometime.) Contributors to this issue were: Stephen Coates, John McKay, Ian Mackenzie, Peter Bain, Leslie Gostick, Sylvia Hannigan, Carole Marks, 0. M. Nierstrasz, Nick Redding, Ciaran O’Donnell, John W. Bast, Randy Bark- man, Doug Harrison, Mark McGuire, Leonard .Darwen, Mark Winnett, the Karl Friederich Gauss Foundation, Jordan Klap- man, Diane Mark, Liz Rootham, and me. . .Lori Farnham.

1 Editorial .- Nine months ago, the Journalism Club

was formed for the primary purpose of pub- lishing a new student newspaper, now named Imprint. Those who* started the paper had at least one thing in common: they felt Th& Chevron was a lost cause. It was seen as being dominated by a small, political clique and those who had worked on the-paper knew that it was not internally democratic.

Our first meeting was preceded by sev- eral months of violent conflict within The Chevron staff, which was split over the di- rection and policies of the paper. Although the initiative for a new paper was taken by students who had never worked for The Chevron, many of the. dissenting Chevron staff realized that this was the only remain- ing option and joined the effort.

Subsequent events have vindicated the rationale for forming Imprint. Last

November 30, 5091 students voted almost 5-1 to cut off The Chevron’s official status, student fee and office space. The referen- dum drew the largest turnout in 10 years.

Last Tuesday, the Canadian Uniyersity Press (CUP) expelled The Chevron for re- peated violation of CUP’s principles of staff democracy.

The demise of‘The Chevron’s status at UW and in CUP opens doors for the de- velopment of Imprint. Lack of office space, student funding and national advertising (the latter provided by CUP) meant that many of our issues had to be 12 page skele- tons, and we enter the winter term pith a $2000 deficit.

Now, Imprint has the use of part of The Chevron’s old offices in CC 140 and we have applied to become a prospective member of CUP, which in addition to ad- vertising provides contact w.ith and news

from other campuses across Canada. We will attempt to obtain student support for a separate, refundable newspaper fee.

Although The Chevron spent all of the regular students’ fees for the fall and winter terms in a single term, we will attempt to obtain the winter term co-op fees to help us out of our deficit position. These fees (less the refunded portion) will be held in trust by the federatidn until students decide what should be done with them.

UW students need and deserve a good student newspaper which is open to all views, which reflects student life and which deals seriously and objectively with major issues facing students. They need a paper which welcomes humour in its con- tent. They need a paper which provides an enjoyable learning experience for students who wish to contribute, whether they as- -

pire to professional journalism or not. With student participation and support,

Imprint can fulfil1 that function. We need people to take photos, research features, do production, help with administration and contribute to debate. We need coverage of everything that happens around campus, and anything off-campus that affects UW students.

If you would like to help build Imprint into a good student newspaper, drop by our office in CC 140. If you have skills, we need them. If you don’t, we want to teach them to you. Even if you don’t want to work on the paper, you can help us by contributing your ideas and opinions, by talking about us to your friends.

Imprint has a bright future, so come and try it - you’ll like it.

Classified Ads Imprint is starting top a classified ad section in its next issue, Thursday, January 18. If you have something to sell, a service to provide, if you have lost something, want something, or if you just want to say something stupid, then come to our offices and write it out. Classified Ads cost one dollar minimum for 20 words and five cents a word past 20. Ads will be subject to editing.

Letters ’ Don’t be a passive observer during your stay at UW. Express your opinion in our pages, and experience the power of the printed word. Make that point that everybody else is missing! Tell the high and mighty Imprint that its report- ing stunk of this and that, and that we should be covering things that have previously been mis- sed. Drop us a line to keep us iri line. Complain about views-that were expressed in a previous letter so that others can complain about yoiur views. Be inventive. Don‘t be afraid, we won’t condemn your opinion.

Prose, and Feeling creative, and iti need of an outlet for your artistic abilities? Then produce! Imprint is looking for your poetry, short short stories, and graphics. You don’t have to be in arts either, according to a recent study that showed that- e<en math. and: erigipeerjng studetits had cer- t&n ‘&-&tie$bilities. Mail your stuff to Imprint, CC 140 or drop in and hc?:-k-1 it to us.

News. -\ Possibly you know of some scandal on cam- pus. Or want us to cover some eve:It. Phone or visit us. Or better still, report on it yourself. Besides news-copy, Imprint is iilterested in investigative-journalism in topics oi tident in- terests.

The Imprint’s sports coverage is only as good as you make it. Si’)=,rts. is a priority on our campus, and so it should be in Imprint. If you’re interested, we’re interested. Write sports. Keep us informed. You don’t have to be a great writer, you just have to be keen. Or take photos. If we aren’t covering something, tell us.

Features There seems to be a lot of things going on at UW that go unreported but remain of interest to many students. You might know of some- thing from an essay- you are writing, or from research you’re doing. Or possibly from some organisation you belong to. If you know of some interesting topic from science, to Kitchener-Waterloo comtiunity to environ- mental issues, to religion, or anything, then think about compiling information for a fea- ture. (Keep photos and graphics in mind for good presentation). ’

Entertainment If you are a culture-nut in a@ particular field of activities on our campus (dance, opera, classi- cal music, rock concert:, theatre, big band, etc.) then you might be interested in reviewing an on campus production. We are also very interested in movie and record buffs to do re- views. And who isn’t a movie buff? Try it, and tell Clyde Gilmore and Peter Goddard to jump in a lake.

Kates was nominated by Senate at a confidential session oftheir December meeting. If he accepts, the official announcement will be made at the Senate meeting later this month. ’ Kates was chairman of the Science Council for Canada, the government’s advisory body on science planning, from 1975 to recently.

The chancellor is a figurehead whose only function to award degrees at convocation. However, chancellors can be important in other areas which they define, including fund-raising for the university.

Carl Pollock, UW’s former chancellor and a local industrial magnate, died last August.

As Science council chairman, Kates lobbied for Canadian “technological soveriegnty.” He argued for private Canadian ownership of high and medium technology industry.

Kates has been a supporter of closer research liasons between government, business and the universities. Ciaran O’Donnell

The new Unemployment Insurance Bill recently passed by Parliament will prevent many students from collecting insuranee if they find themselves unemployed during their summer break, according to Patty Gibson of the National Union of Students.

Gibson told Imprint that students must work at least 20 weeks in the 52 weeks preceding their claim to qualify, and since most students work only 16 weeks during the summer, they will not receive compensation the next year if they are un- employed.

Gibson added that the benefit rate has been re- duc’ed from 66.6 to 60 per cent, which will affect students who usually have to work for low wages.

And if students try to ensure that they qualify by working part-time during the school year, there is another catch: under the new requirements, a work week must consist of at least 20 hours to be insur- able. Nick Redding

Chevron expelled from The Chevron was expel-

led from the Canadian Uni- versity Press (CUP) during the 41st Annual Conference in Edmonton this year, for violation of the CUP State- ment of Principles concern- ing staff democracy. The Chevron had been a member of CUP since 1962.

Of the 47 papers rep- resented at the conference, 37 voted to expel The Chev- ron, eight abstained and one voted with The Chevron against expulsion.

Imprint’s application for prospective membership in CUP was ttirned down at the conference, but the mem- bership mandated the CUP national executive to “look into the status of Imprint, with particular attention to the relation between Im- print and the Federation of Students” and decide on prospective membership “not before March 31, 1979.”

The Chevron’s official status, student funding and office allocation was re- moved, effective January 1, 1979, by a referendum last term which drew the high- est’ voter turnout in ten years. Of 5091 voters, 82 per cent decided against The Chevron.

The expulsion of The Chevron came after a re- evaluation of the evidence submitted to the CUP inves- tigation commission last term, not on the basis of the referendum. The commis- sion concluded that there has been harrassment of Chevron staff by other staf- fers, but decided that the paper was not in violation of the “letter” of the CUP Statement of Principles.

However, the CUP execu- tive and the membership commission reported “The, evidence conclusively proves that harrassment was systematic. It served to subdue any voices of dis-

sent on-staff.”

They placed “a large por- tion of the blame” on the Anti-Imperialist Alliance. (AIA), concluding that “As long as the AIA continues this presence on The Chev- ron, we do not’ believe staff democracy can exist.”

They also charged The Chevtin with a “history of non-cooperation and ob-’ structionist tactics” in CUP.

Sixteen papers spoke in favour of The Chevron’s ex- pulsion. Chris V,gnder Doelen, editor of the Ryer- son Eyeopener and one of the three CUP commission- ers, said he was conyinced there is no staff democracy on The Chevron.

Maria Horvath, editor ot the Grad Post at the Univer- sity of Toronto, spoke against “sectarian aims” on student papers and against The Chevron’s expulsion of staffer Chris Dufault last winter term.

The Chevron claimed the proceedings were in viola- tion of “due process” since no notice of expulsion had been given prior to the con- ference, and they were not prepared to present evi- dence and witnesses.

Chevron editor Dave Car- ter said the proceedings were a “witch-hunt,” and claimed that members were assuming AIA control without proof.

Chevron news editor Larry Hannant said CUP was persecuting The Chev- ron because it “defends the basic interests of the stu- dents .” He claimed the paper is democratic and maintains a high quality.

The only paper to vote with The Chevron against expulsion, the Oblique Times from Seneca College, did not speak to the motion. i Despite a students’ coun- cil directive that excess Chevron funds be turned

News Shorts Imprint Borrows To Solve Cash-Flow Problem

The Journalism Club, publisher of Imprint, recently negotiated a $6000 loan from the Canadian Imperial BankDf Commerce to alleviate a cash flow problem, caused by Imprint advertisers‘who are slow to pay. Imprint relies entirely on advertising revenue for financing.

Ordinarily, regular stu- dents would be restricted to collecting the fee for both fall and winter terms

‘during -the first three weeks of September. F&d- eration Administrative As- sistant Helga Petz told Im- print that, because of the changed status of the Chevron, the possibility of opening these refunds to regular studetits this term is being considered.

For the time-being, all non-refunded “Chevron” fees will be held i? trust by the Federation pending re-distribution later in the term.

By late afternoon on Monday, fifty-five co-op students had collected their $10 student activity fee from the Federation of- fice in CC 135. Federation business manager Peter Yates predicted that, by

Similarly, very few stu- dents have requested the $2.50 CKMS fee. Although these r’efunds were distri- btited from an office on the main campus last week, for the remaining two weeks of the refund

’ period they must be ob- tained directly from CKMS at %the Bauer warehouse.

A substantial drop in the number of SciSoc fee re- funds so-far this term is at- tributed by Vice-president Sharon Harris to the grea- ter financial security of cq-op students as com- bared to regular students. As of Monday only twenty-five students had obtained the $2.00 refund from the SciSoc office in Biology 1, room .2 53.

Only returning co-op Geography students are entitled to refunds from the Environmental Studies Society this term, and lit-

The loan, which costs one-half per cent above the prime interest rate (presently 12 per cent), is guaran- teed by the Federation of Students. This means that the federation will be liable for the debt should the Jour,nalism Club default. However, if the club de- faults, the federation will receive all outstanding ad-’ vertising revenue and other assets of the paper.

The loan is for an indefinite period of time, with Imprint paying interest each month and repaying principal whenever possible.

\ As a result of the drinking age increase, some first year students will be unable to participate in licensed I events on campus. The government claims that it is necessary to raise the drinking age to keep liquor out of high schools.

Schroeder amuses When I read ,tie letter to Im-

print from Dr. Schroeder, on Richard Leakey’s ipaleoan- thropology lecture, my first reaction was astonishment fol- lowed by aIn_usement.

One often takes it for granted that serious fundamentalism is very rarely found either in be- 1ie;ers c&r the age of eight, or outside isolated areas where media, roads, and twentieth century books don’t reach. Such a notion is mistaken. In- telligence and specialized edu- cation are in no way guarantees that a given person &ill be de- void of prejudices, fallacious or wishful thinking especially if outside his specialisation. In fact there are instances of men who are utterly brilliant in their own field, but who cling to and indulge in absurd bits of dogma.

If one’s mental capacity is low, he will believe something, sometimes arbitrarily, and that - will - be - that as far as h&s concerned. Often, he or she will be unable to grasp counter - ar- guments. But if one’s IQ is very high, his arguments and justifi- cations will be more cotipli- cated and consistent, but he. won’t be exempt from error and seeing what he wants to see. In the words of Poul Anderson, he simply “builds higher ca!tles on higher clouds”. Sometimes, others will be unable to refute him, however perverse and contradictory the position, if he is a wizard at arguing.

One of the more obvious in- consistencies of fundamen- talism is taking the creation theory as absolute and sac-

rosanct truth (and truth with a sense of emotional awe and re- verence) with neither experi- ence nor evidence to even sug- gest it, and then flatly denying evolution and disregarding or composing excuses for any evi- dence which suggests or can be more readily explained by it (without a myriad of ground- less or unverifiable qualifications).They are also continuing to fight a battle that had long ago been fought, lost, and ended, as most of their side and all the other side have left for other campaigns. This leads us to Dr. Schroeder’s letters (Imprint, Nov. 9 and 30). Be- cause evolution of a series of generations of beings tends t&eoretically toward increased order, he leaps to the highly questionable conclusion that this violates the second law thermodynamics. Surely, a pro- fessor of civil engineering kriows better than that. Schroeder has overlooked an es- sential point so obvious and elementary within ther- modynamics, that without that premise, the second law is “vio- lated” by many known proces- ses, such as growth, crystal formation, freezing, gravita- tion, and so on. Suppose we try an experiment by melting ten grams of lead at 600 Kelvin. Then we dump it in water (100 grams) at 200 Kelvin in an ideal- ly insulated calorimeter, meas- ure the final temperature, and calculate the initial entropy of each substance - state and the Tinal entorpy of both (expressed in Joules per Kel- vin). Considering the lead only, order of atoms has increased and entropy has decreased, but the lead here is an open system, and if we consider the whole closed system, the lead and water within an absolutely in- sulated calorimeter, the total microscopic:, order has de- creased, and whether we simp- lify the calculations by assum- ing constant specific heat capacity values, or use statisti- cal mechanics, to calculate total thermal energy and specific heat as functions of tempera- ture, the results still imply the same facts : that entropy in the lead decreased, but total or net entropy increased.

So it is with all closed sys- tems: while entropy decreases or can decrease in open systems - a freezing puddle, a crystal growing from solution, a grow- ing organism, or evolution of a species - total entropy of the

Schroeder is not only taken out of context, but irrelevant to the main causes of subtle and gradual evolutionary changes as they accumulate: diversity of individual organisms, and sur- vival of the fittest and best re- producing. For example, areas of Africa had been plagued with locusts until DDT took care of that problem for a few years. But a few locusts sur- vived because they happened to have a higher threshold of lethal DDT poisoning due to chance diversity in their gene- tic make-up. They reproduced to more resistant hoards of locusts, and the more numerous sur- vivors of later DDT attacks re- produced until most of them were unaffected by DDT.

Creation theory completely ignores such facts and insiSts that species never change. But it is well known and well re- corded that people were measurably shorter and smaller in ancient times than in modern times.

Believers in the creation theory will always have pat answers and suddenly appear- ing qualifications for every piece of evidence in favor of evolution, biology, and cos- mology.

Creation theory ma5 have been written as a legend, and not at first intended as a literalistic dogma, until used later as a justification for one nation attacking, conquering, and dominating others. It cer- tainly has been used for that purpose later on, by Sptiish conquistadors, Crusaders, and North American settlers.

Cryoanalgesia is a non- chemical method of long- term pain control that blocks the flow of pain by short-term localized freez- ing of the particular nerve. A self-contained unit to per- form cryoanalgesia, which can be performed in out- 1 patient clinics, is being marketed in England by Spembly Ltd., which played a major role in developing the technique. -

The other discovery, pro- duced by the combined re- search of two doctors and*a = pharmacologist, is a de- tailed understanding of the

’ way in which opiates - morphine, codein and heroin etc. - block pain in the human body. With this knowledge, researchers hope to be able to develop non-addictive pain reliev- ers.

An alternative to drugs, cryoanalgesia can be per- formed under local anes- (- thesia, although a general anesthesia is sometimes needed for apprehensive patients. First, the nerve is located by either direct vis-

Although radiography can be used for rough posi- tioning, precise location of the nerve requires either electrical or visual position- ing. Electrical pulses emit- ted by a the probe produce observable muscle twitches if applied to motor/sensory nerves. Varying the voltage allows the operator to accu- rately locate the nerve while producing only mild twitches.

Electrical pulses applied to purely sensory nerves produce no twitches, but the patient feels a tingling sensation allowing the operator to precisely locate the nerve. Purely sensory nerves cannot be located in this manner if the patient is under general anesthesia. However, visual position- ing, which requires surface surgery, can be used in- stead.

Nitrous oxide, under a pres- sure of 600 psi is expanded within the probe head, freezing the tip to -60 de- grees Celsius and creating a small iceball around the nerve.

tion has released a report groposing a solu- tion to the housing’shortages which have been reported in other media. The prop- osed student residence is to be called Stu- dent Village 4, recognizing the existence of Village 3 in the Lakeshore Village area.

The Foundation released its report, in response to the concern expressed in sev- eral articles in the Chevron and the Gazette during the summer and fall of 1974. In-that year a tent city organized by the Federation of Students lasted into October, before the last of its residents found proper accom- modations.

The report was originally written in April 1975, but its release was ignored until re- cently. Commenting on this delay, Goz Lyv, who is the hd-Hoc Chairperson of the Village 4 Organ, said, “About the only thing that would happen is that the costs would have to be doubled to account for inflation.”

The response of the Administration to the prop&al when questioned by Misprint was encouraging but some concern was expressed. Academic Vice-President Tom Brzustowski felt that the size was slightly excessive, but that at the estimated price (the original figure of $458 million), the re- sidence was cheap at the price.

Brzustowski felt that there would be few objections to the project by the Math Fa-

- culty. “It would put them in the shadows” he said, adding that this would be particu- larily true in the afternoons.

He had several suggestions however, about possiblti improvements to the design. By reversing the building and having the parking above ground and the residence floors underground, heating and exterior maintenance costs would be greatly re- duced. He also suggested that by having the food drop down a sEaft from a ground level kitchen to the dining areas below, the transit time would be reduced and so the amount of cooling will be reduced. The time taken for food to go up to the floors, ,he thought, would result in cold food, especially in the upper floors.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE VILLAGE 4 RE- PORT: - The structure of Village 4 will be com- pleted in two stages. The first stage will be a 68-storey structur.e. A second stage an- ticipated to be built between 1996 and 1998 will add 29 floors for a total of 97 stories, - Tutors’ houses will be incorporated in the design and will sit on top of the 97 residence floors. Also on top of the build- ing will be the Warden’s Penthouse. - Total capacity of the Village will be 23,280 students. - A Great Hall directly below the warden’s Penthouse will hold 16,000 people and provide a living-room atmosphere for the residents. - A variety of living situations will be provided. These will include singles, dou- bles, and some apartments, as well as ex- perimental non-co-ed houses, overcrowded houses misanthropes - The.residences wil,l be built as four es- sentially distinct buildings or quads, ar- ranged in a pattern similar to Place Ville- Marie in Montrea). The quads will be at- tached to a ‘quint’, the central core. - Parking for the students will be pro- vided by a 13-level underground garage with a capacity of 19,526 cars. - Each quad will be identified by its com- pass direction and each floor by a colour

-(e.g. orange, fuchsia). The colour names will be used only for introducing people to the system, but general use will be by col- oured spots. A budget of $23,000 has been allowed for the implementation of four- colour ability for all on-campus typewrit- ers so that colour codes may be typed di- rectly. - In a visionary move, space’has been pro- vided for a future rapid-transit station in Village 4. - Total cost of Village 4 will be only $458 million (now $916 million; ed.). Expected grants are $19.6 million from the Federal Government and $4500 from the Provincial Government. -- A combination of a $194.83 surcharge per term on tuition fees for the next ,112 years and a realistic rate for the village resi- dences will let the University own the resi- dence outright by 2162. Residence fees for

Village 4 were estimated at $8,794 per term which allowed for inflation through to the year 2000.

Food A new procedure will be adopted to pre-

vent overcrowding of facilities, as now oc- curs in Villages 1 and 2. Like the earlier villages, residents will eat in additional din- ing halls.

Each resident’s ID card will allow that student access-into his/her dining hall only within a specified 3 minute range for any one meal. For example, at supper time, the resident of North Dun-38 would be re- quired to enter the dining hall on Quint Dun-38 between 5:41 and 5:44 PM. He/she would proceed to the entrance turnstile and present his/her ID card to the computer terminal. If it were the correct time (with a 30 second leeway) the student would be admitted to the dining area.

I I

1 I I /

The Great Hall 1

Each dining hall will be circular in shape, and, driven by a 3 watt motor, will revolve once every half hour about a cen- tral core. In order to prevent motion sick- ness, the floor will be slightly tilted in the shape of a paraboloid in order that the net acceleration vector points directly down.

Eacfi day of the week, there will be 3 meals served; for lunch and ~ dinner, the villager will be able to choose from a wide rang@ of 2 meals. After gaining entrance to the dining hall, the student w&uld proceed to the central core, select his/her meal and sit down at a table near the beginning of the half hour rotation cycle.

After a twenty minute period the student would have to vacate the table, as the last ten minutes of the cycle would consist of the “wash period”.

At this pbint, that section of the dining hall would enter a mammoth automatic car-wash type area, where everything - dishes, utensils, tables and chairs- would be automatically washed and dried by huge jets of hot water and large warm air blowers.

To prevent the wholesale removal of food, television cameras will be installed at strategic locations. Metal detectors will be placed at all exits to cut down on the loss of cutlery and dishes (Village 4 china and glasses will have metal strips embedded in them).

It is anticipated that due to unforseen circumstances, a student will be obliged to

i have his/her tieal entrance time(s) 1

changed. All he/she will have to do is fill in a “Request to Change Meal Entrance Time Form (5-75)” and distribute appropriate copies to Administrative Services, Food Services, the Village Office and the War- den four days in advance, keeping one copy for him/herself.

Transportation Facilities A structure with the size and population

of Village 4 will need advanced transporta- tion facilities so that moving about the building does not put too much of a strain on the student.

- 1. Access Within Village 4 a. elevators:

There will be 132 high speed elevators: 16 serving each quad, 64 serving the Quint (16 for each Quint lobby), and 4 serving the Tutor’s Pod/Warden’s Penthou& complex. Each elevator will stop at only 6 floors, plus the lobby; each house will have a single elevator serving it. This will mean ,that a Villager will be assured of an elevator no matter how busy the system is. b. slides:

At each of the eight projecting corners of Village 4 will be a large spiral slide. Each slide will have eight lanes, constructed of high-impact teflon-coated plastic, and will be enclosed in a climate-controlled plexi- glass cylinder.

Every 10 metres the ridges separating each lane will have “flippers” similar to those in’pinball machines. When switched on, either left or right, they will shunt a student riding onethe slide into the lane next to him/her. Controlled-by a mini- computer located in the lobby, these flip- pers will prevent collisions, and provide safe, efficient travel for the student.

At the bottom of each slide, in the lob- bies, a high speed burlap mat retrieval sys- tem will eliminate the need for residents to take mats up in the elevator.

In case of computer failure or emergency (fire, etc.), all flippers will automatically switch towards the central core of the slide with a large 40 metre thick layer of foam rubber at the bottom. Residents would be slid directly into this hole and drop down to the layer of foam rubber. There they would rebound to the side, back onto the slide, where they would finish the last stage of their journky. c. stairs:

In cases of very grave emergency, special stairwells will be used in addition to the slides. To prevent the danger of heart at- tacks, they will be closed except under dire conditions, _

Drivers will approach Village 4 along the same roads that now exist in the area (with minor re-alignments). Cars will be accom- modated in the Villpe 4 underground parking garage. To cover the cost of con- struction and maintenance of the Village 4 garage, parking fees will rise approxi- fiately $21.50 per month. b. bus: ’

2. Access to and from Village 4 a. automobile:

A special bus terminal for’the Number 7 &lain Line will be constructed outside the North Lobby. For the convenience and pro- tection of villagers, $23,000 has been allo- cated to move the present bus shelter out- side the Faculty Club to its new location at the Village 4 terminal. c. high speed subway:

The Village 4 Organ has recognized the advantages of using rapid transit as a viable alternative to the car. The proposed rapid transit line will be a high speed subway loop with stops at Village 2, Village 4, Vil- lage 1, Mathematics, Science, Engineering, Arts and the Church Colleges. -Estimated cost of this subway is $295 million. d. helicopter:

To accommodate distinguished visitors and emergency hospital patients, a heliport will be construdted atop the Warden’s Penthouse.

Security 1. The Principle of Limited Access

As experience has shown, past damages to the Villages are invariably caused by non-Villagefs. With this in mind, Village 4 will adopt the principle of limited access.

This system will be based on a wholly new identification card to be used by 911 students at the Univefsity. Entrance to Vil- lage 4 will be restricted to Village 4 resi- dents only. A villager will only be allowed access to the elevator to his/her house, his/her room and the common living areas in his/her house, including lounges, study areas and washrooms.

Any villager desiring to visit a friend’s room in his/her own house need only ask his/her don for a “Temporary Entrance ID Card”. Each don will be supplied with three such cards. Visiting a resident of another house merely involves filling out a J “Request to Visit Form (4-75)“‘.

It is anticipated that this new feature will help to reduce costs to the Village by further reducing damages.

Every door, entrance and turnstile in Vil- lage 4 will be equipped with a special spectroscope/computer terminal. Such a terminal will alow a stu‘dent to pass only if his/her thumb print matches that on the ID* card. His/her house colour spot will also be checked by the spectroscope. Any attempt to bypass the scanner without verification will result in the immediate sounding of an alarm alerting security, and the locking of that door and all possible escape routes. 2. New Security Office

Security will have access to all doors, . elevators and stairs. Special doors located in the stairwells between the Quint and adjacent quad houses will be av&lable,only to Security ‘so that a trip to the lobby and back up will be avoided. Officers will also be allowed to use any elevator in the up or down direction. These measures will greatly aid Security’s prptection role,

With such a large population, Village 4 will certainly need its own Security mini- force. With this in rnied, a special branch of Security will be located in the Quint lobby.

*The Arts ’ - * FASS satire

The whisper of the slugs in the trees, the soft screech of the Burmese kil- ler moth, the gentle cles on the ocean floor;’ yes, it’s spring (or almost spring) and time for a young.man’s fancy to turn to custard.

But what does this have to do with you, you ask. You aren’t even a young man,

* and if you were they’d prob- ably make it illegal. Is there any cure for the dreaded blight which has swept our nation and, as if that weren’t bad enough, hidden all the dust under the carpet over in the corner by the cabinet marked “Vast Wasteland”. And if so, why didn’t the last sentence end wi.th a question mark! Like the last one? Remember, “Caveat Pre-emptor,” which means “Beware of television spe- cials” in any language but this.

I suppose you’re probably wondering why I’m telling you all this. So am I. But perhaps, just perhaps it has to do with FASS.

Administration, Staff and Students!

So what? So What!

Yes, so what? Well, supposing I told

you that FASS is the oldest organization on the UW campus. Supposing I told you that every year FASS puts on a musical, satirical and occasionally funny show in the Theatre of the Arts during the first week in February. Supposing I told you that this year it’s ap- pearing at 8:00 P.M. on January 31, February 1 and February 3, and at 7:OO and 10:00 p.m. on February 2.

Supposing I told you that it may be the funniest thing you’ll see on campus this term, unless John Cleese ac- cepts a professorship in the Kinesiology department. Supposing I tell you that Wednesday night FASS au- diences are traditionally the first people on campus to know the winner of the presidential elections (the Chief Returning Officer is notified shortly afterwards).

Liverpool loses For the first time in re-

corded history, the federa- tion lost money on a pub with Liverpool.

The pub was held last Thursday at the Waterloo Motor Inn, and with atten- dance by about 300 people the federation lost $850. The loss will be shared by MathSoc, which co-spon- sored the event.

As usual, Liverpool re- ceived an enthusiastic re- sponse to their Beatles mat- erial, keeping the dance floor full. They played one set bf original material, which has improved tech- nically but still lacks inspi- ration.

Board of Entertainment [BENT) co-ordinator Denise Donlon blamed the foul weather and a competing pub in the Villages for the low attendance.

BENT decidedlast term to move its pubs from the South Campus Hall to the

., Waterloo Motor Inn because / of the rental and cleanup charges (totalling $185) at the former location.

However, the Waterlo: Motor Inn will not give BENT any ‘of the profits from bar sales unless prices are increased. The prices are presently comparable to those at the South Campus Hall. .

.

As a result, admission prices at the new, location will be higher ($3.25 for the Liverpool pub, compared to a past price of $2.50). .

Donlon thinks that for a poorly-attended pub, the losses will not be as great at the Waterloo Motor Inn be- cause the wages of the bar staff are not charged against the bar sales. At the South Campus Hall, low bar sales mean that the sponsor must pay for the bar staff.

.

The next pub scheduled at the Waterloo Motor Inn is on January 18, with Har- binger. Admission is $3.25.

In the Humanities Theatre, Jan 11 at 8 pm: The Hungarian Gypsy Orchestra and Dancers is

a group of youthful musicians, dancers, violinists and violin makers on their fourth Canadian tour. They present an authentic and elaborate display, recreating the romantic era of restless caravans. Thecolorful costuming and the use of unique in- struments including rare cimalons, zithers and gypsy violins makes for a spectacular and enter- taining show. The program of music and dance ranges from classical Hungarian works with music by Liszt and Brahms to folk dances.

In the Humanities Theatre, Jan 9 at 8 pm. Thursday marks the opening of a new photo-

graphic exhibition at the UW Gallery. This exhibi- tion, entitled Insight, contains over 100 black and white photographs focusing on a few individuals to develop a series of six photographic essays. The photographs deal with the many areas of human interaction involved in people helping people. One positive affect of this exhibition will be the instal- lation of a temporary ramp into the front entrance of the Modern Languages building which will give wheelchairs easy access to the exhibition.

about the moral of this story: they don’t get you when you’re asleep; they get you when you think you’re awake! (0.3440359 out of 20 on the illustrious James Wark Scale for this film; not for snobs or pod-like vegeta- bles .) O.M. Nierstrasz

I dotibt that this “up- dated” version with Donald Sutherland in the lead role will prove to be as memora- ble, but it manages to be both entertaining and un- usually innovative - some- thing one doesn’t expect in too huge doses from Hol- lywood these days.

The skeleton of the origi- nal screenplay is hardly recognizable here, so it’s best to start afresh: Suther- land is Matthew Bennell, a Public Health Inspector in modern-day San Frans- cisco.

A colleague of his called Elizabeth (Brooke Adams) tells him that her boyfriend isn’t himself; h-e’s an im- poster! (“I know it sounds crazy, but. . .“) This hap- pens shortly after large numbers of unidentifiable orange flowers are disco- vered growing like parasites on other plants.

More people begin to act strangely, emotionless, as though there were a conspi- racy of zombies, and finally friends of Matthew find one of the Body S,natchers - a humanoid that assumes the

The stage is set, and we have a fantastic “escape” scenario. Matthew and Elizabeth must save them- selves, and also find some way of saving everyone else. Whether they succeed or not is a matter of taste, for either ending is an accepta- ble Hollywood cliche.

If what is done is of primarily academic in- terest, then we must turn to how it is done: half the fun of “Body Snatchers”.is the blend of deadpan melod- rama and tongue-in-cheek.

The cliches (or most of them) are acceptable- be- cause the characters are al- lowed to realize that they are cliches. Also, most of the melodrama is only implied: so much of the perfor- mances are so low-key that we scarcely realize how ludicrous the situations are.

Rather, a lot of emphasis

Unfortunately the, at- tempt to create a paranoia- inducing atmoshpere is not strong enough. The illusion is not complete enough to be convincing.

The weakest link in the movie is the ending. (If you want to know what it is, ask a friend who’s seen it, or wait for the NatLamp “Spoiler” - I’m not tel- ling!) If this is worth a two- hour build-up, then I’ve spent too many years away from the television set. Like the conclusion of Polanski’s “The Tenant”, it was evi- dently supposed to be “scary” or “surprising”, but succeeded only in being downright silly.

Kight now a lot of foufera- (ie. “general commotion,” “hubbub”) is being raised about “Body Snatchers,” but then the same thing happened when “Coma” struck so many moons ago, and who remembers that?

The [ow Gullible Do

Although it was a finan- cially successful year, there were also many high points that did not get worthy rec- ognition: Here then is the Imprint’s compilation of what Rolling Stone didn’t tell you. In addition I have taken the liberty to award prizes to several of them.

The Pompous Ass award: Undoubtedly, this has to be awarded to Peter Frampton, who took Robert Stigwood’s RSO productions to court to get star-billing over the Bee Gees in the movie Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club <Band. Nice going, Pete.

The Ultra-Brite Sax Ap- peal Award: Gerry Rash ferty unquestionably wins this trophy for his hit-single Baker Street.

You Think We Are” Award: United Artists Records de- servedly wins it after trying to pawn off a Stealer’s Wheel greatest hits album after the success of Rafferty% Baker Street. (For you folks who are wonder- ing what the hell I’m talking about, Rafferty was a member of Stealer’s Wheel, and they only had one hit which was Stuck in the Middle With YOU.)

The Identical Twins Award: Both commercial AM and FM radio win this one for sounding more alike this year than last. Soon no- body will be able to tell the difference between the two.

The Mods and -Rockers Mourning Award: Sadly, this one is awarded to all the fans who last year lost one of the last links to the sixties, Keith Mopn. _

The Ridiculous Publicity -

The ‘ ‘You’ve Finally Made It Award”: After sel- ling four million, I think Billy Joel should be the

-dubious winner in this category. It’s good to see he is getting the recognition he deserved all along.

Award: It’s a tie between Ra,ndy Newman’s Short People, and the controversy surrounding Canada’s very own Battered Wives. The National Union of Students figures prominently in turn- ing the latter into the issue that it never should have been.

The “They Can Even Sing” Award: It’s a tie bet-

~ ween Carly Simon and Linda Ronstadt, who both

’ released highly successful albums last year, for obvi- ous reasons. ’ The “Big Deal” Award: Tom Robinson deserves this one for his sepulchral Sing if You’re Glad to be Gay.

’ Every time I hear it I can only respond “Sb What!”

The “Bratty Kids Around The Corner” Award: The Cars merit this coveted title for releasing their debut album which is much more ingenious than Boston’s Don’t Look. Back. Both bands released their respec- tive albums at the same time, and both groups are from Boston (home of the Bruins).

The World’s Oldest Freak Award: Stiff Records’ Ian Dury merits this award for his prolific Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll. He who lives by the sword dies by the sword. What a way to go!

The K-Tel-Ronco-Teevee Records-in Disguise Award: Whoever is responsible for the 4&I soundtrack album should get this one, plus a Vegematic (trademark re- gistered).

The “It’s Good To Get Out Of The Closet” Award: The Village People, whose Macho Man and YMCA proved that you don’t have to be heterosexual to sell a million albums. It also

The Back With Even More Hype Award: Bruce Spring- Steen gains this dubious trophy for his Darkness On The Edge Of Town, and the subsequent tour promoting it. I’m convinced that if Springsteen recorded his top ten beer-farts, the rock media would love it. Can he do no wrong, I mean he-is human, ain’t he?

From time to time bartending positions become available at the Grad Club. To apply come to the Grad Club office Monday to Friday’l2:OO - 4:00 PM.

The Successful Formula Flogged to Shit Award: It’s a tie between Boston, Chicago, Foreigner, The Tubes, *and the Electric Light Orchestra.

The “Here Before Our Time” Award: The winner is Devo, whose Q. Are We Not Men, A. We Are Devo album marks the unofficial beginning of the music of the 80’s.

Local ski facilities reviewed . So you’re itching to try

out those new skis you got for Christmas? Cross- country and downhill in- struction is available through the intramural program, and there are plenty of spots to go within fifteen miles of the campus.

There-is only one down- hill ski resort in the KW area. Chicopee Ski Club is located on Morrison St. in the southeast end of Kitch- ener, near Fairview Park Mall. The club is a non- profit organization with over 6000 members, and is open to the public.

The Sports Quiz

Welcome back, sports fans. I’m sure that by now you’re as saturated with Bowl games as I am, so for a change of pace here’s a short quiz on hockey. As usual, each individual answer is worth one point. 1. Who coached the St. Louis Blues the three years that they reached the Stanley Cup final? 2. There have been four 50 - goal scorers in the history of the Canadiens. Who are they? 3. From what Canacdian football team did the Detroit Red Wings get their emblem? 4. Name the two other NHL franchises Montreal has had. 5. With what NHL team did Tony Esposito play before becom- ing a Chicago Black Hawk? 6. In the history of the NHL, who has played more games as a Canadien than anyone else?

Check your equipment carefully at the start-of the season so that accidents can be avoided. If you need in- struction, there is an adult teaching program on week- day evenings.

Chicopee is an ideal spot for beginners. The slopes will probably disappoint experts, but for the casual skier who can’t afford to make it to Collingwood every weekend, Chicopee is a good alternative.

enjoy in the Waterloo reg- ion. A cross-country ski area map is available from the in- tramural office, PAC 2040.

The Doon Valley Golt Course is near Conestoga College. This is the first year that organized trails have been available. There are three trails of varied dis- tances, totalling nearly 18 kilometers.

Daily fees are $2 per per- son and $5 for rental of a complete set of equipment. The weekend rate for rental is $7, and the Golf Lounge is open to skiers.

Beaverdale Golf Club is on the far side of the KW airport, about fifteen mi- nutes from UW. There are 12 miles of trails and the fee is $2. Equipment rental costs $3, and the clubhouse restaurant and bar is open to skiers.

Westmount Golf Club is not staked or marked. It’s five minutes from UW, on

Inverness Drive, and there is no charge.

Foxwood Golf Club is

west of Waterloo on Erb St. There are no organized

. trails, and no charge. There are a few simple

rules of courtesy and safety to remember when skiing. Ski with a companion and in an area you are familiar with. Carry a small pack sack with extra warm clothes and something to drink.

Yield the right of way when you hear someone call “track”.-and expect the same courtesy from others.

If you must stop on trails, step off to let other skiers by.

Keep at a reasonable dis- tance from those in front of you on the trails, especially when going up or down slopes.

Respect private property and “No Trespassing” signs. Don’t litter on the trails, and respect plant and animal life.

So get outside, wear off a few pounds, breathe in some fresh air and enjoy winter’s delights!
