CFS/Feds:lawsuit settled. out of Court bv N&l Bonnor $25,000 in mispaid fees, while the. r&print -staff

A- settlement was reached last week between the University of Wa- terloo’s Federation of Students <and the Canadian Federation of Students (CFS) ending a two year dispute that had threatened to end up in court.

* The dispute cefitered around Wa- terloo’s membership in the National Union of Sttidents, CFS’ predeces- sor. The Waterloo Feds claimed

NUS/CFS claimed $17,000 in with- held fees.

The out-of-court settlement calls for the Waterloo Student Federation to pay the CFS $5,000 over the next two years - giving the university prospective membership in the na- tional student organization - and for the CFS to pay the UW feds $5,000 if and when UW successfu!ly applies for full membership in CFS.

In addition, the CFS agreed to foot the $1,500 bill for running the stu- dent referendum at Waterloo that would be necessary to achieve full membership, as long as this referen- dum is called no later than March 31, 1988.

UW Federation President Scott Forrest called the settlement “a well: balanced agreement” that is “good for Waterloo students.”

“The CFS has changed drastically in recent years,” Forrest said. “They’ve become a stronger lobby ing force that’s of benefit to students. More lobbying has more effect on government, so by settling with the national student movement we’re really investing in higher quality edu- cation. We’re investing in the future.”

CFS executive bff icer John Casola had much the same to say. ’

“The CFS is very, very pleased with the agreement,” Casola said. “It took a long time to reach this decision. We found a enuine willingness to nego- tiate on the part of the new Fed ad- ministration.”

While cautioning that “no one came out ahead” on the deal, Casola said that the agreement “set the precedent that the CFS is a referen- dum-based organization, so that stu- dents dust be consulted before a university pulls out.”

The dispute first surfaced in 19Si, ,+,+- when theNational~Uni~nlu~.Students

(NUS) delegated its responsibiliti& to the’new Canadian Federation of Students, in effect becoming a dummy corporation: As a NUS member,. the UW Student Federa- tion continued to pay fees to NUS, but did not join the CFS.

age of majority issue is seen as a possible attack on the lib&ties of uni- versity students. The age limit is the most contentios part of the Liberal’s current review of Ontario’s Liquor Li- cences Act (LLA).

“Raising the drinking age to 21 won’t solve any problems,” he said in a telephone interview.4 “l’m particu- larly confident in this case . . . that we can succeed (ifi) influencing govem- ment policy.”

Many of the province’s student groups agreed this week to develop a common cburse of action for deal- ing with the government’s AdMsory Committee on Liquor Regulations, formed June 4 by Minister of Consu- mer and Commercial Relations Monte Kwinter. The agreement was reached July- 22 at a University of Toronto meeting.

Ring Road accident

Biker lqospitalized . by Neal Bdnnor imprint staff 1

A University of Waterloo student is in serious condition at @e Kitchener- Waterloo Hospjtal following a motorcycle accident early Thursday morn- ing on Ring Road. ’

Joseph Louis Cayouette was admitted to the intensive care unit of K-W Hospital after suffering severe head injuries in the accident, which oc- curred at 130 a.m. opposite the Psychology building on the east-bound lane of Ring Road.

The bike’s passenger, Martin Ci. Barclay; also a UW student, was treated for minor injuries, at the hospital and released.

According to witnesses, Cayouette’s bike was travelling at about 50 mph. when it skidded out of control, jumped the curb, and struck a lamp post, coming to rest against a car in parking lot H.

Passersby, including Impririt staff member Doug Thompson, quickly alerted campus security of the incident. Security immediately called for medical assistance. Two ambulances. were sooq on the.scene.

“I was driving home from the Gqptis’ Centre when I. saw a man kneeling on the grass waving for help,” Tht>mpson said. “I saw two guys lying immobile on the grass and sped off to security fast. When I got back to the scene, security was already there.”

“The bike’s seat was lying 50 feet away,” Thompson said. “We checked around but could only find one helmet. One guy was in convulsions and theye was a lot of blood, while the other guy just lay there stunned.”

. According tothe police, Cayouette is a 21 year old engineering student from St. Hyacinthe, Quebec.

Waterloo Regional Police were still continuing their investigation when Imprint went to press Thursday afternoon.

payments beginning the following year. However, then-UW’ Student Federation president Tom Allison uriilaterally decided to withhold Wa- terloo’s 1983 NUS fee as well.

The NUS chairman at that time, John Doherty, did not recognize Wa- terloo’s withdrawal until May 1,1984, claiming UW was a member of a democrafic organization and must therefore abide by a decision of a majority of its students. In October of 1984, NUS launched a civil suit against the Waterloo Feds for the fees withheld in 1983, which

, amounted to $17,000. ‘NUS also claimed interest charges and court costs, which would ‘have amounted

‘to an additional $13,000 today. In retaliation, UW student council

recommended, at an October 14 meeting that same year, that the

Feds launch a suit ‘against NUS to claim $25,000 in membership fees paid to NUS from 1981 to 1983, al- leging that, NUS had ceased to exist from the time it amalgamated with the CFS in 1981.

. Since then, lawyers on both sides ’ have been at work putting together their c&es, amassing legal bills th&- both sides admit are ‘.‘iri the area of $5,000”.

The Waterloo Fed position was based solely on a technicality until recently,. but when Fed president Forrest was informed that it probably would not hold up in court, more emphasis was placed on a nego- tiated settlement. ’

“We just sat down at a table and tl.acked it out,” Forrest said of the settlement. It was in the students’ best interest to reach an agreement.

4, COMMENT - Imprin!, Friday July 25, 1986,

Let’s be sndbby! _ by Flew Macqueen Imprint staff

Recently, upon opening the Kitchener-Waterloo Record, I was’once again amazed at the smallmindedness of some of the people living in this area.

In an article entitled “Not all neighbours embrace non-profit housing bid” on page Bl of the July 16 Record, a number of Kitchener residents living near a vacant lot at Joseph Street and Linden Avenue, the proposed location for a low and middle-income housing project, were given the opportunity to express their opinions on the proposal.

Though many of the people interviewed by the Record were not opposed to the project, it was comments like the following from Liz Utley of Troy Street (east of the site) that really got my dander up: “We don’t need more houses. here. I don’t like to sound snobby, but it is like the old saying - not in my backyard.”

With the vacancy rate in Kitchener-Waterloo at 0.04 per cent as of April 1986, just where should these people live?

I wonder if the people who oppose these kind of projects are also the ones who worried about their property values going down when their neighbours wanted to put granny flats in their backyards. (Granny flats are small self-contained apartments that allow elderly people to live near their families but maintain an independent residence).

And speaking of housing problems, have you heard some students want to rent out that place across the street? Well we don’t want their kind around here either.

Just who do these people want living in their neighbourhoods? Why, more middle-class WASP families of course! They will often admit that people on low incomes (unemployed people, recently released psychi- atric patients, immigrants, welfare recipients, pregnant teenagers, bat- tered wives, students) have housing problems and yes we should do something for them - but just don’t let them come near this neigh- bourhood.

Bringing such housing to the neighbourhood would force many of these people to face up to the hypocrisy between their words and their actions and to ask themselves why it is they get richer as others get poorer (If Statistics Canada findings are correct, one in five Canadian families is poor, the poverty line for a family of four in a major urban area being $20,800 a year).

Subsidized housing projects would help students by increasing the vacancy rate in low-income housing. But it is the narrow attitudes like those expressed by some people regarding this specific housing pro- ject, people who probably don’t have limited incomes, or have children struggling to find reasonable accommodation in a university town, that hold us all back from improving the situation. .

Well I don’t think we want to live near you either.

Appeasing South African racists will bring disaster

by Doug Thompson Imprint staff

Sanctions? Or no Sanctions?

except Moscow? Sometimes I just cannot believe the dense stupidity and blatant non-sequiturs pack- aged in vapid White House statements.

What is the best way to avoid a bloodbath in South Africa?

Everyone other than white South Africansseems to agree, the answer is to end apartheid.

How to end apartheid? This is thearea of international disagreement. On

the one side you have the entire Commonwealth, except for Britain, and all of black Africa arguing that Pretoria has only diluted apartheid because of international pressure, and so the international pressure must be increased. On the other, you have Britain and the U.S., South Africa’s two largest trad- ing partners arguing that blacks don’t know what’s good for them, and that continued, even expanded trade, is the way to end apartheid.

Yet 70 per cent of South African blacks want sanctions. From their point of view, apartheid hurts more than sanctions. Even the Queen herself has ’ been forced to take unprecedented political action domestically to register her disapproval of Maggie Thatcher’s cruel policy. It must surely be totally clear by now that the odious spectre of apartheid will lead to a brutal civil war in South Africa in which thousands will lose their lives unless the Commonwealth, and most especially the United Kingdom, takes strong and decisive action to end apartheid.

Because these two govern(ments are so over- whelmingly outnumbered on the stage of interna- tional opinion, and because of the obvious economic conflict of interest in preserving trade with Pretoria, it is understandable that the Anglo- American objections to sanctions are viewed with considerable cynicism worldwide. While saying they don’t like apartheid with their mouths, their actions continue to support it. No wonder people Like Desmond TUTU, black South African Archbi- shop, react to Reagan by telling him to “go to hell”.

South African whites have no-intention of dis- mantling apartheid. This has become dramatically obvious. Even the so-called rel,axing of the regime is usually more a change of nomenclature than an improvement in economic or political rights for the blacks. And most of the softening rhetoric from Pretoria is precisely because the relatively minor sanctions so far undertaken have successfully pres- sured the South African government to do as much as it has.

Even the economic self-interest of the U.S. and the U.K. is only served in the very short-term by their selfish policies. Nor is the strategic security of South Africa served by failing to stand against apar- theid. Continued oppression will lead to civil war. That will ruin the economy and invite Soviet inter- vention. Only if apartheid is ended quickly will the economic interests of foreigners be secure. Only if apartheid is ended quickly will political stability ar- rive in South Africa quickly. And apartheid can only be ended by united anddetermined action to impose genuinely punishing sanctions. And if sanctions fail, then the world must take stronger action to remove the ugly scourge of racism from the world. Apartheid is no more tolerable than Nazi anti-semit- ism. Civilization cannot endure governments which adhere to these ideas.

The apartheid regime will not end until it isforced to end, and there are only two things that can force it. One iseconomic pressure, so that the economic costs of apartheid are greater than the benefits’to whites. The other is violence.

Indeed, there is a strong case to be made that sanctions should be backed up by a joint Common- wealth naval blockade of all South African ports, temporarily seizing South African assets, and de- nial of travel visas to all white South Africans. Such an overwhelming economic war of liberation need not cost a single life, but could force the whites to compromise. Indeed, they would be left with no choice.

And sanctions, the only option which can bring change without violence, must’be backed by the U.K., South Africa’s largest trading partner to be really effective.

Failing that, how can one argue with South Afri- can militants who suggest that since the West is unwilling to act, they must take matters into their own hands, and start a war? Should sanctions fail to be imposed with vigour, South Africa is doomed to an incredibly ugly and violent future.

It is amazing how many people are duped by the hypocritical drivel that Reagan and Thatcher throw up as a smokescreen to cover the most crass com- mercial greed. Sanctions would hurt the blacks, “the very people we are trying to help”, they say. Reagan says we must not abandon South Africa to the Soviets. Yet, if the blacks in South Africa are denied hope of political improvements by American and British refusals to join the international boycott, has this not left them with no place else to turn

Which all leaves one asking why it is that Thatcher and Reagan, alone among the world’s leaders, cannot see that? The glitter of South Afri- can gold and diamonds has clearly blinded them so they cannot even see their own genuine self-inter- est.

There is an object lesson in ttiat for all of us. Greed destroys one’s ability to recognize what’s going on. The lust for money blinds one to injustice. And the fear of the Soviets seems to lead people to play right into their hands.

The evening at the Laughs Pub provided very little entertainment value at all in light of the frustra- tion and disgust I felt for the drunken behavior of many people in the audience, as well as for the incompetence of the organizers in their almost nonexistent and fee- ble attempts to “calm” the au- dience.

Obviously, Village council has a captive clientele and could not care less about the people it is supposed to represent.

SOAP Bs)X Summer heat, courageous\ students and South Africa

by Neal Bonnor Imprint staff I

I Just thought I’d finish off the term with a few words - nothing in particular, really, just a few comments.

. For instance, I don’t know about you, but I think sumtier stinks as a school term: it’s too damn hot and muggy most of the time to get any work done! When the weather is so nice, it’s hard to study in the air conditioned library all the time, and there are so’ many distractions qutside.

I think the summer school term should be abol- ished!

Next, I’d like to applaud all those student people who actually got off their butts this term and did something besides studying. It takes courage to write for the newspaper, to work for the Feds or a society, to participate in a sport - to commit your- self to something.

It’s a shame how many students don’t take this (free) golden opportunity to develop themselves in ways beyond the intellectual. I don’t know if it’s the students at Waterloo, or university students in gen- eral; I can only guess that the socio-economic back- ground that you come from makes yqu complacent.

Housing, computer fe.es and free trade by Ten-i Shewfelt Imprint staff

The American government has been more helpful than its Canadian counterpart in keeping Ontario in- formed of progress in the free trade negotiations, says a Kitchener MPP involved in the process.

David Cooke, chairman of the Lib- eral’s Standing Committee on Eco- nomic Affairs, said last week the U.S. has been more attentive of the the province’s role in the talks. Cooke made his remarks to a small gather- ing of students and faculty July I5 at the University of Waterloo.

idea of greater education, as well as Ontario/US. trade relations.

Not only has the government ac- complished much with respect to free trade, said Cooke, it is also doing well with regards to student issues.

Last month, the government brought down a decision outlawing incidental fees (including UW s com- puter fee) as of May 1987. Many saw this as a step in the right direction, he

said. Cooke, who attended the under-,

‘funding conference at Waterloo last week, said until he arrived at the con- ference he was unaware that stu- dents disliked the government’s decision. UWs Federation of Stu- dents has said the new policy, which disallows computer fees but pro vides for a- one-time five per cent in- crease in tuition, is unfair because

the five per cent increase will not be matched by provincial dollars. in ac- tual terms, students are still paying more for their education.

Cooke said he will encourage the government to reconsider this issue in light of the Liberal position on in- creasing access to education.

Student housing problems have also been indirectly dealt with by the government, he told the audience.

There has been a large increase in the number of applications and grants for provincial low income housing, especially in the Kitchener- Waterloo area. Although students are not eligible for low income hous- ing, they indirectly benefit because for every person that moves into sub- sidized housing, another low cost house or apartment is freed for possi- ble student use, he said.

UW dwarf places fourth . The committee, one of the few of

its kind in the country, was estab- lished by the province to deal primar- ily with the issue of free trade with the United States.

Committee members have been to Washington several times and are going again this week to meet with American free trade envoy Peter Mur- phy’s assistants, as well as with inter- ested senators and congressmen, said Cooke. . .

When John Young travelled to Dearborn Michigan a week ago to participate in the Dwarf National Games, he wasn’t expecting the amount of organization or competi- tiveness that he found.

“The games turned out to be more psychological than I’d expected,” says Young, after returning with two * fourth place finishes, one in weigh-

- tlifting, where he pressed 200 Ibs., and the other in the 50-metre frees- tyle swim. He also placed fifth in the 25-metre freestyle and ninth in all of his track and field events.

Because of the competitiveness of the 4050 competitors, Young found himself under much more pressure. The other competitors had trained a good deal more than he had, but then he only decided to give it a shot four weeks- before the opening ce-

remonies. Young went into the games with

an open mind, not knowing what to expect, but like every athlete, he had dreams, of bringing home some hardware. When he couldn’t come up with that elusive goal, he settled for the mental rewards. “I wanted to see how I ranked and I found out. I’ve always been athletic and had to com- pete with people of average height. It was a great experience to finally com-

pete with people on my own scale and come out at an above average level.”

There were only four Canadians competing in the games, and the rest were Americans.

The right shoes prevent injury by JoAnn Hutchison I Imprint staff

I hate buying shoes.. Not just because I amembarrassed about my foot size, but because of the overwhelming and intimidating selection of sportsshoes in myriadsof designs, colours, construc- tions, materials, and weights. An athlete, whether professional or recreational, should be concerned about getting proper footwear, since footwear prptects against injury not only to the feet, but to the legs, knees, hips, and lower back. Proper shoes can also en- - hance performance.

There is no such thing as the perfect shoe which suits eve- ryone’s needs. Basketball shoes, aerobics shoes, tennis shoes, and running shoes are all specially designed for specific sports and should not be used for ,sustained use in other sports. When buying shoes, you need to consider the sport you participate in the most. You should also be prepared to tak.e the time to look around-and experiment with shoes to see which shoe best fits your foot size and shape, body weight, and your personal manner of movement. You should try on a variety of different shoes and walk around in them to see how they feel. If possible jog around the store in them to see how they feel (if you feel a bit silly doing this you may prefer to run on the spot in the change room).

Finding a pair of shoes is an exercise in selective shopping. The following pointers may help you select an appropriate pair of jogging shoes:

1) Length - A shoe properly fitted for length will usually leave about a half-inch between the end of the big toe and the front ofthe shoe. This allows space for the foot to expand when running.

2) Width - The sides of your feet will feel firmly enclosed, not too snug and not too squeezed if the width of your shoe is correct. When looking for shoes, be sure to wear the socks you wear when running. (NB: Just make sure you wash your socks thoroughly before before going shopping - you’ll get better service this way!). If you forget to wear the proper socks, do not be afraid to ask the salesclerk for some.

3) Sole Construction - The best running shoes have 2-3 layers of rabberized material which make up the sole. The most durable shoes have a tough outer sole with a “ripple” or “gripper” pattern. Ripple type soles work best on hard surfaces such as asphalt and cement while gripper type bottoms which have rubber studs or points on the sole work best on dirt or cinders. Gripper soles may wear down quickly when used extensively on cement.

Above the outer sole, there should be another layer of rubber- ized material which runs the entire shoe length to provide a cushion. The_third layer, the heel wedge, is directly under the heel apd runs forward to the ball of the foot. This layer is sometimes a different colour than the other layer

4) Heel Lift - The heel lift, which is the difference in height between the heel and toes in the shoe, is provided-by the heel -wedge. Distance runners need this this heel lift since it relieves strain on the calf muscles and Achilles tendons during running by tilting the body gently forward. The ideal heel lift is debatable but most experts say good shoes should have at least one-half inch of heel lift.

5) Flexibility - Since the foot flexes when it pushes off the toes during each stride, the runnjng shoes should flex with it. If the shoe does not bend under the ball of the foot, extra stress is put on the legs thus risking injury to the shin and Achilles tendon. If you cannot bend the shoes without forcing them, the shoes are-too stiff to run in. On the other hand, a shoe that bends too easily might not provide enough cushioning.

6) Midfoot Support - The outer sole of shoes you buy should lie flat on the ground from the heel to toe, especially at the midfoot under the arch.

7) Upper Shoe - Most shoe uppers are built of nylon, leather, sv<ede, or a combination of the three. It is a matter of personal preference as to what is best.

8) Heel Counter - The heel counter is the hard piece around the back of the shoe that provides stability to ward off all kinds of possible foot, heel, and tendon problems. It should be strong and rigid and cup the entire heel to hold it firmly inside the shoe.

9) Weight - Shoes weighing 10-12 ounces seem to provide enough protection and support without being too heavy for train- ing.

-British realism at Expo annoys Consulate

by Paul Done, ons who are aware of their exist- Imprint staff ence.

RPM, located in a disused ware- house, was the perfect setting for Test Department’s display of fury and industrial intensity. Their show, only their second Canadian appear- ance, was an aural and visual bar- rage of unparalleled power and aggression.

The Test Department ethic is based qn a two-pronged rejection of the empty intellectualisation of music and events and, secondly, is an attempt to expose the modern methods of propaganda and sociaii- zation to which we all fall victim. Their music consists of layer upon layer of harsh metallic drumming (using whatever objects they can find as instruments), combined with voices and random noises played on a reel-to-reel tape recorder.

Furthermore the British diplo- mats went so far as to phone Test Department to request they not play Expo since the Government wanted to present a positive image of Britain rather than the searing beam of truth that is Test Depart- ment. During the show in Van- couver, Test Department’s stage construction included two WWII tanks and a mock battleship cannon pointing into the audience.

Evidence qf Test Department’s political bent was the presence of Alan Sutcliffe, a British miner who spoke about being beaten and jailed by police, whti out&mberedl picke- .ters by 150 to 2.5 .during a demon- stration in the British miners’ strike of 1984-85. Test Department cite

Ir;lprint staff No one knew what to expect from

the Canadian debut of The Mercy Seat. Not Fernando the drummer, not Pat the bassist, not Zena the chant&se, not even little Gordon Gano the guitar player. There was that show a few weeks back that managed to dredge up a meager 200 of the faithful following a 24,000, two-night Violent Femmes sell-out in Milwaukee. ‘It was a cold night”, they laugh uneasily.

Thankful upward glances were in order as the mighty four strolled con- fidently stageward in their glitzy Sun- day best to the applause and screams of “Gordon, Gordon” from the near capacity crowd of mostly club regulars. Obviously they didn’t know what to expect either.

When the church started to roll, it was Zena upfront, smooth ‘n’ boulful while Gordon added the obligatory “oh, Lord” to his jagged yet ever-so- tasteful guitar frills. They didn’t forget to bring along that good old revival with I’ve Got My ticket, Can I Ride? whose sweaty passion unglued Gor-

don’s Bible hickin’ shades from his nose. Things’got hotter still with a pew stomping version of As Long As I’ve Got King Jesus, leaving no doubt as to Zena’s full-throttle, butt- shaking sincerity (“You can’t judge true belief by the length of your skirt!“).

Fernando then joined Gordon for a stirring duet of I Saw The Light, perplexing some members of the au- dience to the point of their leaving or singing along.

The surprise of the evening was the self-penned New Born Soul that effectively blended Go-Go drum- ming patterns and phrasing with a gospelly call and response - a gas!

Holy rollicking homages were paid throughout the night to The Cara- vans and the Davis Sisters culminat- ing with a bone crunching Let The Church Roll On. Poor Gordon’s part- ing words that “This is a real band! This is not a hobby . . . we’re even gonna make records!” fell amongst shouts for Add It Up and Blister, while others milled around, dazed, wondering what “This church stuff’ was all about. . . hey man, everybody knows that God made rock ‘n’ roll!

Johnathan Richman

by Paul Done ‘Imprint staff

The Fountain of Eternal Youth seems to have soaked Jonathan Richman at some point in his life. Here he is in his mid-30’s still singing about corner stores and malteds with the wide-eyed wonderment and joy normally reserved for children under 10. It’s Time For Jonathan Richman and The Modern Lov- ers marks a return to form for the Modern Lovers and is perhaps their best stuff since 1979’s Back In Your Life. Though only’ Asa

ers, Richman’s supporting cast (in- cluding backing vocals from the godlike Barrence Whitfield) does an outstanding job.

It’s Time For... sees Jonathan returning to old, familiar lyrical terri- tory as seen in Shirin and Fahad, which seems reminiscent of Abdul and Cleopatra from 1979, and Corner Store, which is a logical ex- tension of Shopping Mall.

One of Jonathan Richman’s strengths as a songwriter is that he writes about every subject he en- counters with a fresh view - free of preconceptions and symbolism. Thus, when he sings about The De- sert, it’s with a charm and warmth that’s instantly winning.

Don’t let the name fool you, this album has nothing to do with jazz, and even less to do with meat cleav- ers and cold cuts. What it does have to do with just just about everything else you could imagine. The Jazz Butcher (what is this guy’s name anyhow?) is one of the more original and imaginative individuals to arrive on the music scene in a long time.

by Andrew Saikali Imprint staff

It’s interesting to note how the “classic” rock baods of the late ’60s and ’70s face existence in the ’80s.

Some have the good sense to bow out gracefully while their music is still great and while their fans are still loyal. The late Pink Floyd is an ex- ample.

Others are forced into premature defunctdom - Zeppelin. Still others plug on, forgoing the imljending de- functdom-, opting instead for a pain- ful musical death. They downgrade their music in a (successful) attempt to widen their audience. Their songwriting is butched up, but at the expense of the acoustic sensitivity that %&as responsible for much of their cult following to begin with - Genesis,. Yes, Moody Blues etc.etc.

by Paul Done Imprint staff

Home and Abroad may be as close as we unlucky North Americans ever come to experiencing The Style Council live as Paul Weller’s fear of flying keeps him close to home. Unfortunately, with the exception of a few bright moments, Home and Abroad doesn’t really distinguish itself from the Council’s studio efforts.

The highs on the album are the smoking versions of My Euer Changing

In the ‘8Os, these bands have deli- vered extremely predictable albums yielding well-polished mediocrity, tempered with only the occasional suggestion of past excellence. The musicians have advanced techni- cally and production has improved, but in light of their past recordings and thei< current competition, high calibre mediocrity seems to sum it up rather well.

Moods, Head Start For Happiness, and the climactic last track, a .leng: thened, muscular interpretation of Internationalists which approaches a Redskins-like intensity. In general, Home and Abroad shows Paul Weller’s improving control of his voice in ballad settings and testifies to the fact the angry young man hasn’t lost any of the clenched-teeth fury-,tihich marked, his recordings with The Jam. .I ,

-There are, however, some dubious moments on the albu’d sucn as the inclusion of Shout to The Top, the only record Weller has ever regretted releasing. Furthermore, there are some ill-advised restructurings of The Lodgers and The Whole Point of No Return.

The Other Side of Life, the la- test release from the Moody Blues is no exception. It’s not bad, but it’s not anything particularly new - no- thing you haven’t had a taste of al- ready on their other recent albums - the vastly superior Long Dis- tance Voyager for instance.

The tracks on Home and Abroad actually constitute part of the sound- track to the new Style Council live videobf the same name. Unfortunately, a lot of the great stuff like Soul Deep and Sig Boss Groove, arguably the Council’s two best songs, aren’t on the album. Thus, though Home and Abroad ‘provides a decent sampling of The Style Council’s efforts to this point, it really isn’t too great an investment compared to their studio efforts.

Top Ten Records/Tapes- for the week ending July 19, 1986

The harmonized melodies are still there, and the LP “sounds” good. Hayward, Lodge, Edge, Thomas, and Moraz are not musical novices by any stretch of the imagination. But the songwriting, the very foun- dation of music, to which musician- ship and production add colour, is, in a word, boring. The best songs, relatively speaking, are. Your Wild- est Dreams, I Just Don’t Care, and the title track - each tiith its share of introspective lvrics and simple,

manages to incorporate a touch of pseudo new-wave, hard core punk, 50s drivel, acoustic mind trips, and country parody. Sound diverse? It is, but despite the variety the album does maintain a sense of unity. At times it reminds one of an Echo and the Bunnymen feel, at times it harkens back to the days of Velvet Underground, but don’t let that fool you, the music belongs to no one but the Butcher himself.

. The work is tight, well produced, and fun. Attempts at .humour in music are often futile, but not this time. If you’ve ever dreamed of Death Dentist, owned a coat made from the skins of dead Jim Morri- sons, or th’ought of Frank Sinatra as your friend, this one’s for you.

The Jazz Butcher hails from the

dingy underground pubs of England where he first surfaced in 1983. This is his premier North American re- lease, and if it fails to attract a follow- ing, it will at least confuse a lot of people.

Flanked by several equally bi- zarre companions, The Butcher is now touring on this Side of the ocean. The band consists of Max Eider on guitar and vocals, Mr. Jones on drums and vocals, and two bassists that trade off throughout the album; Felix and David J. (Get the feeling that these guys would rather remain anonymous?)

-Nuclear nightmare novel original and satisfying

Fiskadoro Denis Johnson Vintage/$6.95 .

by Chris Wodskou Imprint staff

Following up on the success of Denis Johnson’s award-winning first novel, Angels, Fiskadoro should prove to be as important and stun- ning as his fiction debut.

Johnson gives the almost too fa- miliar theme of life-after-the-holo- caust a fresh and vibrant treatment, eschewing the sensational for se- rious reflection on today’s society and a haunting, almost bittersweet vision of the future.

Fiskadoro is much more than the Apocalyptic portrait of the savage post-nuclear wasteland of Mad Max and its ilk.

Johnson’s prose is a strange and exotic combination of the mystical and the lucid

Set in the predominantly Cuban settlements of Twicetown, Mara- thon, and The Army in the Florida Keys of the mid-Zlst Century, the disjointed plot follows Fiskadoro, a 14 year-old boy whose name means “fish-man”, through a series of trau- matic events that lead to a disturb- ingly uncertain future. After acquiring a clarinet, he sets out to find Anthony Cheung, the manager of The Miami Symphony Orchestra, who is the only man who can teach him how to play.

Intertwined with the deaths of Fis- kadoro’s parents are subplots sur- rounding Cheung’s fearful obsession of the former world and Cheung’s grandmother’s fragmen- tary recollections of her hellish eva- cuation out of Vietnam.

But Johnson’s plot is really only a device. to develop the more impor- tant and powerful atmospheric and allegorical undercurrents.

Told with subtlety and grace, Johnson’s prose is a strange and exotic combination -of the mystical and the lucid. Fiskadoro and his

people are gentle, uneducated folk trying to cope in and make sense of a hostile, yet oddly beautiful world reminiscent of a harsher, grimier, more sinister version of The Old Man And The Sea.

This sometimes surreal lands- cape is made familiar by the shards and scraps of contemporary pop culture which keep cropping up, taken to their logical extremes. Houses are decorated with auto parts such as steering wheels nailed all over the walls and signal lights flashing persistently, there is a no- torious pirate given almost messia- nic reverence who calls himself Cassius Clay-Sugar Ray, and The Miami Symphony Orchestra is com- prised of people who own damaged instruments they don’t know how to play. Not only is the wasteful, mean- ingless transience of today’s culture 1 (or lack of it) satirized, but all of our supposed cultural achievements are debased and mockingly made inet- fectual.

Johnson’s greatest talent, how- ever, is as a story-teller. His under- standing of the tradition of the great folk epic and of the evolutionary simplification and contamination of languages gives a rich earthiness, and vividness to the stories told by Cassius Clay sugar Ray and to the wonderfully idiosyncratic dialogue. Pidgin English is mixed haphazardly with pidgin Spanish to produce a queerly poetic language.

Houses are decorated’with auto parts.. .

It would be tempting to categorize Fiskadoro as a work of magic real- ism, but it is beyond that. It is a bizarre, nighmarish world of dre.am- like unreality which doesn’t require a leap of faith or the taking of implau- sible events for granted. But it gains a startling immediacy through play- ing on speculations about our for- seeable future, our shared nuclear nightmare.

A completely original and satisfy- ing novel.

Fantasyland setting for uncommonly real issues

by Neal Bonnor Imprint staff

Life is a labyrinth. Out on your own in the big world, there’s no one to help you when those important decisions have to be made, when you’ve got to take a stand, develop your own morals and values, decide what’s most important to you in your life. There are many paths to choose from, many doors to open, and many dead ends. You’ve got to trust in yourself to make the right decision. Once you’ve made a deci- sion, you’ve got to be strong and stand by it, no matter what the sacri- fice. Above all, don’t take anything for granted.

This is life. This is Labyrinth. Produced by George Lucas and

directed by Jim Henson, Labyrinth is an exceptional movie in this day and age of violence-worship, moral prostitution, and sexual saturation: it has none of it.

A Tale. of

What it does have is a straightfor- ward plot upon which rest numer- ous lessons of life, a stimulating setting and an imaginative cast re- miniscent of Alice in Wonderland.

The movie begins in the real world. Sara (Jennifer Connolly), the adolescent innocent, bored of life and upset with her socially mobile parents, takes refuge in a make-be- lieve world of sorcery and goblins. Left to babysit her kid brother (still- in-diapers Toby) by her party-bound folks, Sara calls up the magical for- ces of the underworld (personified by David Bowie as the chief goblin) to take him away. Once obliged, though, Sara realizes her mistake, and calls for Toby’s return. Alas, Mr Evil is not very accommodating, but does give her an out: if you can reach the castle through the laby- rinth by the time the clock strikes thirteen, Toby will not turn into a goblin.

Enter the labyrinth, with all its weird and wonderful characters: a tea-toting worm, an acned elf lonely for company, a lumbering giant orangutan of gentle disposition, and a courageous fox with a stiff upper lip, to name a few. On the side of evil is an army of outrageous under- , world creatures, a crystal ball full of tempting delights, and of course the ever-appealing bad-guy leader with the strong voice.

As Sara’s determination slowly takes her closer to Toby, again and again the labyrinth tests her strength, challenges her precon- ceived notions, and forces her to trust in herself and others 1 in other words, teaches her the les- sons of life.

Needless to say, Labyrinth is ideal for the kids - probably the best children’s movie to come out in a decade. If you’re still a kid, it’s for you!

1 wo sequels: Psycho III (bad), Aliens (ok)

by John Zachsriah Imprint staff

Here, in this final issue of Imprint for the spring ‘86 term, you the reader are presented with a Tale of Two Sequels . . .

The first one being Psycho 111, which brings back Norman Bates as the reclusive motel owner with the unhealthy mother fixation. This out- ing, sadly, is somewhat stale, though, and the picture is infused with very little suspense; instead, it relies on gory death scenes for ef- fect. And despite good performan- ces by both Anthony Perkins and Diana Scarwid, the film is pretty pal- lid.

It’s bad news for Maureen Coyle (Scarwid), a disillusioned nun-in- training who arrives at the Bates Motel after escaping her convent. Maureen’s initials, M.C., are em- bossed on her suitcase, and are the same as Marion Crane’s, who Nor- man offed in the shower not so long ago. Seeing Maureen’s suitcase sets Norman off and he takes an un- healthy interest in her. At the same time, a reporter takes an interest in him. In the end, four gruesome deaths later, the reporter confronts

Norman/Mother in the Bates, household. The ending shouldn’t be given away for those intent on see- ing the picture, but don’t hold your breath for a tricky twist ending.

Because everyone knows about Norman’s problem with his mother, Psycho ZZZ is ultimately uninterest- ing. Its reliance on a well-flogged premise is its downfall. Such a prob- lem does not cripple Aliens, sequel to the much-celebrated yech-fest, *

aim was to scare. AIiens is an action movie, and an impressive one. Ri- pley (Weaver) is brought out of deep freeze after 57 years of floating about the galaxy, whereupon she is told that a colony of earthlings has been on the Alien planet for 20 years. When they lose contact with the colony, they ask Ripley to go back to the planet with a team of marines to fight the aliens. Hers, however,is only an advisory capac-

Nothing new with Norman’s mother says critic

Alien. Alien’s is an unbelievable movie, truly dazzling and breath- taking and is escapist fare in the best sense of the term; for two hoursand fifteen minutes, you will forget about everything but what’s on the screen. It succeeds for two reasons: a) it makes no attempt to mimic the tone of its predecessor, and b) it stars Sigourney Weaver.

Alien was basically a monster movie set in space, and its primary

ity. The unsuspecting marines ar- rive on the planet, and are quickly killed off, leaving Ripley in (more or less) charge. She attempts to lead the remains of the force to safety.

As Ripley, Weaver is fabulous. She is assured and believable and despite able acting from other play- ers (i.e. Micheal Biehn), she is defi- nitely the centrepiece. As for Aliens, it is worth the price of admission; don’t close your eyes for a minute of it.

Larry’s Byrds win Women’s B - Ball _ by Paul Marchildon

Once again the C-R Women’s basketball championship title has been taken by Larry’s Byrds. The Byrds finished first overall in the league with West B Oldti- mers not too far behind. the Old- timers were fighting an uphill battle in the championship game

that ended 43-24. The Bvrds showed a good deal of stamina in that game when they lost Karen Clarke (fouled out) and con- tinued to play to victory with only four players.

As well, congratulations go out to East Quad for winning the consolation final over the Mech Magic, 36-16. -.

Each term, thousands of stu- conveners, and Mike Montgo- dents, staff and alumni partici- mery, coordinator of referees, pate in the Universit.y of Waterloo’s intramural sports programs. Since the league sports are a major part of Water- loo life for a good portion of the campus, I thought this C-R roo- kie reporter should check them out. I spoke with Patti Murphy, Mike Montgomery, and Dwayne Mott, the C-R Student Assist- ants in charge of league sports, to get the inside story on intram- Urals at Waterloo,

Murphy is the coordinator of the “co-recreational” leagues. For C-R illiterates, Co-Ret is a level of play designed to be fun. There are no awards, no referees, no points systems and no playoffs. The co-ret season ’ starts off with team entries early in the term. Teams are usually made up of academic depart- ments, classes, residence floors or gangs of friends. Once spring teams were submitted, Murphy developed tentative schedules for the season, which she final- ized after meeting with team captains. Organizing 214 teams in five different sports in less than two weeks made for a very busy start of term, Murphy ad- mits, but she made it through with the help of friends and roommates.

tive leagues offer a structured

In co-ret play, things run pretty much by themselves once the season starts. At the end of the term, teams are given a chance to participate in “Chal- lenge Days”, put together by vo- lunteers with the help. of the recreational coordinator. If you’re not particularly into the Campus Recreation scene and you’re looking for a way to some exercise and have fun, a co-ret team could be the perfect solu- tion for you.

For those with a more serious interest in team sports, competi-

oversaw the running of these leagues. The competitive level of play also begins with team en- tries and finalizing of schedules. Mott worked with league con- veners to straighten out schedul- ing problems, while Montgom- ery supervised referees-in-chief to ensure games were properly officiated.

Teams in the competitive leagues are grouped into “A”, “B” and “C” levels of play, according to interest and skill. Strict rules of play and eligibility are en- forced throughout the season and standings are updated weekly. After several weeks of play, the conveners and their coordinator set playoff sche- dules that eventually determine league champions.

Reflecting on the season that has just come to a close, both Mott and Montgomery ,are pleased with the success of the competitive leagues. This spring, 94 teams -competed in four sports. The beginning of the

. term, end of term and pay dates were busy for both Montgomery and Mott but they’ve enjoyed the term. Montgomery is extremely pleased that it was not necessary . for the Protest and Conduct

Board (the regulatory arm of Campus Recreation)to meet this term to resolve conflicts. This term’s competitive leagues have offered a great way for the cam- pus to let off some steam and enjoy the sunshine this summer.

an “awesome” experience,

Though Campus Ret leagues have finished for the summer, they start up again in Septe- meber with competitive and Co- Ret leagues in eight different sports. Check out the possibility of joining a team when you get back on campus for the fall or winter. As Mott would say, Campus Recreation leagues are
