At its meeting of June !, UW’ student Federation Council decided to put ‘$!Sd;OOO ‘of, un$Q$~t:revenue towards renovating the pub in the Campus Centre. The meeting -was held in the “Bombshelter”,(which is the new official name for the pub) in order that council- ’ lois could be shown the planned changes. -

Neil Freeman, Federation President, explained t-hat the existing space in the pub could be used to better advantage, and that the idea behind the changes was to bring both sides of the bar together.

This is to be done, he said, by eliminating certain of the non-weight-bearing walls.

This would include the k walls around the bar. As it stands, the building needs only- the pillars for support:

“This back hallway serves .no purpose, ” Freeman stated as he led councillors on a touqof the pub. He pointed

,:out \hat, with the walls, gone, \‘the washrooms would/ be right off the bar, and therefore’ more convenient.

-In addition, Freeman ‘- stated that the’bar would’be

enlarged, and would be able. to provide a better selection of beverages. The changes would also result in shorter, more problem-free draught lines to the kegs which are presently being-stored in the basement. ..

As of last week,@eliminary figures concerning cuts in Campus Centre salaries,have been inade public -bythe CC Board.

Joyce’ Pickard, graduate representative to the Board stated that approximately $1200 worth.o!f shifts would have to be cut from the turnkey schedule, and that these would necessarily result in some reductions in services.

Earlier this, year the- CC Board had been told by President Matthews to cut $5,000 from its salary budget for the second year in a row (for a total cut of $10,000). Last year, the Board was able to use money fro-m the games room enrichment fund to ‘subsidize salaries and thus- avoid having-to drop turnkey shifts. .~CThis year, however; Matthews specifically asked that a

large portion of the $5,000 come from salary cuts, even though money from other sourceswas available to subsidize salaries. .

Pickard said that most offthe cuts would be made in the summef or on long weekends when student demands on services are not as great..She was adamant however in the CC’s refusal to chise as long as alternatives could be found., . _

“The Campus Centre Board is dedicated to keeping the building open even if, with cutbacks,‘there’s a reduction in services,” Pickard maintained. “We intend to use one turnkey where there is normally two rather than c1os.e the building for a night and save shifts that way.”

At the same time, Pickard said she would not want. to see the turnkey staff overworked because of the cutbacks. “Two things can happen in such a case,” she said. “One person can do th,e work of the two turnkeys who would normally be working the shift, or, with community understanding of the situation, people will not push beyond what is reasonable.”

The turnkeys may post signs beginning “Due to shift cuts...” advising students that only one turnkey is working and notifying people of the effects. -

“This is another result of cutbacks,” Pickard stated, “and we only want expectations to be realistic.‘*

Do you agree with &e renovations to the CC Pub? What- do L you think of changing the name to “The Bombshelter”? -

7 The renovation is a good idea; it opens it up more and, makes i,t more _of a pub-like atmbsphere, more conduciire to having a good time. I think the name’s great; it’s what its been called for a long time anyway. The name’ will give it a bit /of character.

I’ve never had the occtision to’,visit the pub but those who live on campus need some place for relaxation. If people want to be

’ associated with a place called the Bombshelter maybe that’s where they should meet.

Does anyone remember when, in November of 1971, the United States exploded an atomic bomb buried a mile beneath Amchitka Island in the Aleutian chain of islands? There was a big furor dver the test in Canada (abd other countries in the world1 but the test was, in the end, carried out as planned. ’

An interesting aspect of the test, however, was that the then chairman of the Atomic Energy Commi&&, James Schlesinger, his wife, and two daughters went to Amchitka and were present bn the Gte when the bomb exploded. Schlesinger did this to s_oothe fe,ars from-environmentalists and other peoplethat severe and irreparable damage could be done to the environinent, particularrjr the Canadian envir&ment.-

So if there was &radiation leak, if’there was an’earthqua,ke (Amchitka lay on a fault line), if the explosion ripped the island apait, then Schlesinger would be there to take

’ full, and-final, responsibility. But he knew that all that could have been done to prevent disaster had been done. After all, he was the man in charge.

I think that this world needs more of that kind of thinking. Too often; people in jobs which can affect a huge number of other people isolate themselves from the consequences of their actions.

Consider some of these examples. . Would the canisters, of deadly dioxin, buried in the Love Canal by the Hooker

Chemical Company, have leaked from their resting places, causing, among other things, birth defects, deafness, and chromosome damage, if some of those barrels had bee? buried in the backyard of the President of the company?

Would the Ford executives who vetoed spending,$g per Pinto to correct the car’s . faulty gastank (admittedly a large expenditure when one considers the number of cars being made) have made that decision if they had to drive those cars themselves?

Would safety. standards be higher in mines if mine operators and ownershad to spend some timeXevery so often down in their own mines?

Would people take more pride in their work if they knew that they-would have to use the goods and services which they produced?

Would generals be so willing to spray Agent Orange or other toxins in the battle zone if they knew that they vould soon be going into the same area;or would be nearby when the actual spraying took place? ,

Too often people living in p&h suburbs &cide that a chemical dump will be made in places where other people will live, peopl;! who design faulty Pintos drive Continentals, people who own or operate mines live always in the daylight never fearing a cave-in, workers who build Chevrolets drive Fords, and-men who direct wars dwell in calm. People take some resonsibility for their actions, the executives an& workers can be fired, the owners can be fined, and the generals can be dismissed. But few are brave Enough to take full and total responsibilitv.

I do not ad\ioc&e that people accept this sort of full responsibility from vengeance - it wouu be inhumanly cruel to take pleasure fr$prn the fact that the people higher up “got it”, too. But I do think that it would make decision makers think through to the v.ery end the full consequences of their decisions before they make them and therefore minimize any damage their decisions may cause. j

Thus, if another. Love Car@1 took, place, if more veterans contracted cancer from herbicides us’ed in war, or if more cars were made withserious defects, then we would at,letist knoti that, in all probability, all that could have been done to prevent these accidents had been done.

-‘I don’t think it is a godd idea because it seems to me that a lot of emphasis is being placed on the pub as the “central” activity of the students. I feel that the, money could be well

.. Spent on other more “beneficial” projects. _ I like the ,name “Bombshelter” though.

’ Opening it up couldn’t hurt it. Whether the money is well spent depends on how much it is used; it might be used more if it were more attractive. The name change is cheap, and might help it along. Boothsalong the sides might help and an outdoor section during the summer would be excellent. I~

When the Ontario Federation of Students (OFS) meets in udbury this.week to determine policy and discuss student .d and other matter- directly related to the province’s past sst-secondary. education, Federation of Students’ Neil reeman, Debi Broclc, a& Larry Knight will be among its alegates. ‘According to’ a recent OFS newsletter, the conference

11~0 OFS’ Annual General Meeting) will run from Wednesday June 11 to Sunday June 15. A day long women’s mucus will precede the opening plenary on June ilth. Bfock, who-is the Federation’s vice-chair of education,

nd a member :-of the OFS Women’s Issuescommittee, fated that caucus delegates would -discuss such-topics as X!ess, women and student aid, daycare, women’s studies rograinmes, sexual harassment, and’ en,iployment. Other issues on. the agenda include -the government’s

olicy of fiscal restraint, the recently released Anisef sport,, the ‘federal-provincial task force on student Psistance, graduates, .and research, and I international tudents. .yederation President -Freeman noted that student ousing would’be another of the issues examined and sdd lgt legalpr$lems arising from the Waterloo Towers’ case rouldbe discusssed and perhaps lead to financial and ioral support from others at the conference.

“We will also be looking at the question of whether OFS, s an interest group, should get involved in elections,” said reeman.

A media workshop will be part of the conference and oard of Communications chairperson Knight is scheduled > give a screening of a television commercial made earlier i the year by the Federation. The commercial was esigned to encourage community awaren,ess of student csues. ’

Well it?s not quite Elton John at his best;but it’s far superior, and rocks harder than his last . album, so I suppose 21 at 33 is wor,th an initial listening to, particularly if you&-an EJ fan.

The first side contains four very good songs, including the single which is getttig a lot of play on AM radio, “Little Genie”. “Chasing‘, the Grown” and “Two Rooms At The End Qf The World” are fast-moving songs with fascinating lyrics (both are Elton John/Bernie Taupin collaborations). . 1

If the side has a weakness it is, of-course, that the songs are too long. You can only listen to a chorus repeated so often before you begin to wonder why they didn’t shell out a few more bucks for another song. %

. “White, Lady White Powder’ is an excellent /. way to,start the second side of the-album; it’s- \ the side’s best song, and it, too, is a Taupin song. “Never I Gonna Fall In Love Again” and “Give Me The Love” are also strong selections. r, \

Although this work has many fine and comic moments, , there is an undercurrent of unhappiness and of the characters being forced into situations which are beyond their control.

The work is set in Tudor England, and it is this setting which predominates the production. The scenery is forceful and sturdy, depicting the cold grey stones of the turrets of the Tower of London. The costumes are all- Elizabethan and look almost authentic in their richness and detail. it is these costumes which make the production appear professional.

Most of the singers were in, fine voice, particularly .Alison Watson as Elsie. Looking very much like Glinda, the good witch of the North in The Wizard of Oz with her long platinum blonde hair, she sang with great emotion and clarity. She was very good in portraying her ,faithfulness to her husband and the conflictwhichrarose, within her because of her desire to marry Leonard while trapped within her marriage.

Jacob Willams as Colonel Fairfax had a fine lyric tenor but was slightly unconvincing in his spoken delivery. ’

Donnalee Wakenhut, in the role of Phoebe, had a very nice voice but her stage mannerisms were too artificial and irritating. Her grief at the loss of Fairfax’s love was strong but she lost it somehwere when she had to sing about it.

Conference (CEC ‘80) will be held at the Waterloo Motor Inn on June 13,14, and 15. CEC ‘80> is a three day session of musical workshops, seminars, and live entertainment showcases designed to “educate all college and university programmers from ‘across the

country in the ways of the music industry,” according to conference co-ordinator Denise

,Donlon. Workshops and seminars will be held at

various times throughout the session on the following topics: how to save money without losing friends, promotion and advertising, innovative programming ideas, speakers on campus, researching a hunch, stage management, budgeting, music law, orien- tation, using- the community, the professional

booking agents. The CEC ‘80 agenda includes presentation

of 19 bands and acts over the three weekend evenings. “The showcase talent has been carefuly selected for its suitability to (the university crowd),” states Donlon in the CEC ‘80 Conference ’ Manual. “The college and university market is a large and valuable part of the music industry,” she states, “mainly because (students) spend millions of dollars in entertainment a year, and supply ideal venues in which to break new talent.”

CEC ‘80 is being hosted by the university of Waterloo Federation of Students. To attend the CEC ‘80 showcases, add your name to the guest list in the Federation office, CC 235, or call extension 2358.

fact, -an explosion seems imminent. The question of whether or not it should be played in theatres in Ontario makes for good cocktail

. conversation and has, in some circles, become . something of a “cause celebre”.

in this knd of atmosphere, it’s not difficult to lose focus of the film itself and become embroiled in using The Tin Drum to test one’s moral persuasions. Maybe that’s what makes The Tin Drum, winner of an Academy Award, a superlative film. Maybe that also makes it an intensely disquieting work.

But if a pre-requisite of art is that it should force the individual to examine himself in relation to his world (and there are those who have argued this) then The Tin Drum is a work of art.

Oskar, the central charact,er in the film, is a young boy growing up in a Germany where the seeds of Nazism are being sown evenly and deeply.

On Oskar’s third birthday his mother presents him with a tin drum she promised to him at birth and Oskar willed himself to stop growing. He looks at the adult world from his, young, but infinitely wise, eyes and finds it decidely unattractive. Oskar throws himself down the cellar stairs, thus providing his family ,with a plausible explanation for his stubborn refusal to grow.

Oskar spends his extended infancy watch- . ing the world withan uncannily perceptive eye.

He sees his mother tear herself apart with guilt. over a love affair with her cousin and eventually watches the grief consume and destroy her, He listens to his father slowly

.delete Auf Wiedersehen from his vocabulary and replace it ,with Heil Hitler. He feels the _ hopeless; despairing love that his uncle has for his mother.

Through it all, Oskar remains in the * comfortable, blissfully amoral state of child-

something exquisite in little Oskar’s .anarchy. His refusal to grow, the monotonous drone of his continual drumming make him representa- tive of an individual will that asserts itself. Oskar doesn’t’ say “I’m good” or “I’m. bad”, he simply says, with an inordinate amount of dignity, “I am and I will.”

The Tin Drum is based on the novel by Gunter Grass and is directed ,by Volker Schlondorff, both of whom are gifted artists. The combination of the two talents has produced a film with a wonderfully eccentric story enriched by cinematography” that is

. reminiscent of a camera moving over a series of gorgeous. canvases.

The film opens on Oskar’s grandmother sitting crosslegged under , her voluminous skirts in a potato field made wet by adrizzling rain. She is in front of a small fireand the smoke drifts across and around her like a dismal premonition. It is here ‘th&Qskar’s mother is conceived in a charm&i& incon- gruous manner. The colours of. the film are muted and subdued, like those in an Andrew Wyeth landscape, and it gives the film a hazy, surrealistic aspect. .-- --

The Long Riders: I a naturali&c Westek - - r’-+ % .

The Long Riders is a successful blending of authenticity and “legends of the Old West”: Director Walter Hill-has done a fine job on this movie. Rather than a flashy Clint Eastwood- style western where the hero is superman and handguns report like howitzers, Hill has chosen to create a naturalistic setting and a feeling for the times of the picture.

Missouri doesn’t look like Death Valley. Passengers on a train are entertained by a jews- + harp and a song instead of being accompanied by a symphony archestra.

Rather than drearily destroying legend with facts and figures The Long Riders presents protagonists who are undoubtedly human and yet undoubtedly special. They are a mixture of hell raisers and avenging crusaders. _ ___ _-

DBvid Carradine steals many scenes. His rough-hewn characterization of Cole Younger contrasts well with James Keach’s\pristine portrayal of Jessie James. --

The Long RiBe~~‘remains--a-~t~~~~western complete with gunfights and train robberies. The James/Younger story retains its mythic aura in this well made version of the tale. Actors and director are to be credited for the care and skill that they have invested in this picture.

~ . , Vernarana:

colonial&m revisited

Imprint Editor, , \ Once again we witness another step -

towards the end of imperialism as the people of Vernarana, a part of the colony of New Hebrides, a colony of Britain and France, rose in a popular revolt against their colonial masters. The revolution- aries, lead by the great leader Jimmy Stephens, have seized power, taken the District Administrators and a dozen of his

-facist ‘policeman* hostage. The daring revolutionaries, armed only with bows, arrows, spears and muskets, have defeated imperialism’s lackeys on this island. Jimmy Stephens intend to create an island of freedom- for his people, where they may be freely exploited, freely administered by the great power of their choice, freed from government inter- vention in people’s enterprises, freedom from facist land-re-distribution etc. After a short period of reconstruction, this will no doubt create an island> where no unemployment exists, no inflation, no economic crisis, etc. etc. Prosperity must be the only consequence of this glorious revolution by the people.

However, imperialism will not give up its markets easily, they have already conspired to invate the island to prevent other imperial forces from seizing their colony. British and French imperialist forces have already prepared to invade this island to crush the rebellion.‘ Imperialism will again lead the British and French people to war over redivision of their markets. Historically, Britain has

never hesitate*!. tb ti@ht to the last frenchman to defend it’s markets, and similarly, France has never hesitated- to ‘fight to the !ast _ Englishman, jand/or America&$o.&&nd ~h&cc&n$ies;. Clea,rQ _ this case shall be no different. In order to prevent war, inevitable with imperialism, we must support this valiant revolution b-y the people of Vernarana. Although Vernaranians have resolved to fight them on the beaches, the fields, the streets, the plantations, we must show our support. The people of Canada must with.draw from all imperialist alliances and cease war preparations, as well as actively support the, revolutionaries in Vernarana. If Britain and.,,France, sends troops’ to invade Vernarana, the Canadian people must demand that Britain and France be thrown out /of the 1980 Olympics, the commonwealth, United nations, > etc. I Similarly, social’and economic ties must also be cut. The ,hostages, who have .been shown to be traitors to the:peqple;must be put on trial. by a revolutionary court to’ show the world the crimes committed by ’ imperialism in Vernarana. Vernarana must demand the return of all traitors who have fled Vernarana since the insurrections who have not only fled themselves, but also fled with the wealth of Vernarana. Canadians must refuse to be drawn into any wars against the

Mae Chong wrote the column. She should be ashamed ‘of herself for being part of a Commie paper. Perhaps she does not have any relatives in Mainland China, but I do. I have uncles, aunts and cousins there suffering under the Communist government. You are damn right that I hate Communism.

believe in. Face it, the only reason The Chevron club wants to be part ot - the- Student.+ Federation is because of the Fed’s money. What kind of a phoney is the Chevron that it wants to be a part of an organiiation which it condemns con- stantly? And by the way, who is the one that .wants to eliminate those that are

_- disagreeable? Who started the petition I that *‘killed” two Federation presidents

that ‘wetie against The Chevron? I think ,The Chevron is hoping that one day, there will be no one else to run, so their man can ‘finally .get in and The Chevron can take over the Federation. Just 16ke the Russians try to take over the .world: This goes to show that rotten minds think alike. It will be hell freezing over three times before this student supports The Chevron,
