- ‘Tuition hearing: a circus
by Don Mcintosh
Accusations, contradictions and a great deal of mistrust characterized yesterday’s
afternoon public hearing on student costs.
The public hearing was organized by the Task Force to Review Students’ Contributions to the Costs of Post-Secondary Education (hereafter known as the Grantham Task Force — after the chairman R.D. Grantham). The Task Force, which was formed in January at the request of Dr. Hohol, is touring Alberta soliciting
recommendations from the public.
Verbal clashes between opponents and proponents of higher tuition fees were the
animated result of opposing ideologies.
On one side were student represen- tatives from the Students’ Union (the Committee to Oppose Tuition Increases and Cutbacks) and from the Federation of Alberta Students (FAS), on the other were individuals from the businéss community.
FAS spokesman Brian Mason said _ his organization was opposed to any fee increases on the grounds that they posed financial barriers which limited access to universities. He said FAS is proposing the gradual elimination of tuition fees.
William Grovenor, who said he was a businessman and employer, said he was “fed up with the gimme gimme attitude of students and educationists.”
Grovenor said education is a privilege, not a right, and must be earned. He advocated that the student should pay the full cost of post secondary education.
He called opponents to tuition fees “lazy so and so’s” and graduates “sheep and functional illiterates”.
“We must call a halt to this (govern- ment funding), Alberta is not yet a com- munist state-like Russia,” he concluded.
Another gentleman from the business community, who did not identify himself, was less vehement but more or less reiterated Grovenor’s statements. =
He said he disagreed with the “free ride”
. philosophy and said “it is an accepted truism — that what you: get for nothing is worth
nothing.” _ He said an increase in tuition fees should be consistent with rising university operating costs and said there should be an equal tuition fee for all faculties so that “ability and desire” would become the essential prerequisites to admission.
The hearing began innocuously enough with statements from the Chairman R.D. Grantham who outlined the purposes of the ‘task Force and read a list of 13 questions the lask Force using as zuidelines to solicit recommendations trom the public. The questions make up a questionaire which the Task Force distributes at each hearing and
asks the public to fill out.
But a confrontation developed im- mediately, when David Rand representing COTIAC questioned the credibility of the Task Force.
Rand said the Task Force was formed after Dr. Hohol had indicated it was government policy that tuition fees increase regularly, and hence lacked credibility.
Grantham interrupted Rand to ask if Rand wanted an immediate reply to the
_ charge. Rand said there would be time for
that after he finished his presentation.
Rand also charged that some of the 13 “basic questions” the Task Force had placed on the questionnaire were weighted against the student.
“The question: ‘Should all costs be borne by the taxpayer’ puts students in an unfavourable light and neglects the fact that students are taxpayers as well, ” said Rand.
Mason attacked the Task Force more pointedly. He asked why only two students were on the Task Force of eleven and why only one was an elected representative of
. students.
Grantham replied the Task Force was set up to gain the opinion of the public.
“We want major involvement from the public, students represent 65,000 people out of a population of 2 million,” Grantham said.
Mason also asked the Task Force if it though it had a purpose since Dr. Hohol is on record as saying he will disregard the recommendations of the Task Force if they are not related to government policy.
Grantham did not reply to this and insisted Mason make specific recommen- dations on the question of tuition fees. |
Gordon Unger, executive secretary of the U of A Association of Academic Staff, also spoke to the commission.
Unger addressed himself to the ques- tion of the university’s relationship to its donor, the government. :
He pointed out the essential differences between the university and other post

told Gateway yesterday there was no funding from his depart- ment for those two buildings this year.
‘In a government press release Dr. Hohol explained: “this building, along with the gradual reassignment of space in the General Services and Prin- ting Services buildings, will provide for the long term needs of the faculty of Agriculture and Forestry, and release space for
other disciplines.”
Scheduled. for completion and. occupancy in 1981, the proposed 16,477 square meter ( 177.341 sq. ft.) structure will furnish a 10,297 square meter (111,836 sq. ft.) base for research and planning in preparation for subsequent testing under field conditions. The addition to the
campus would increase the un- iversity’s capacity by 700 students.
The government is con- templating an expenditure of 32,256,000 in new construction at public colleges, universities and provincially administered institutions during the 1978/79 fiscal year.
The total cost of these projects over the neat three years is expected to be 9107,937.000:

Students later criticised: Grantham for interrupting Un- ger. They said it was impossible to talk about tuition fees without considering university funding as a whole.
Minister agrees
march had effect
The March I5 protest sailed to make an acceptable case that the university is in need, but it succeeded in its objective of attracting attention.
This was admitted by Ad- vanced Education and Man- power Minister Bert Hohol ina brief telephone interview yester- day.
“The protest failed to make a case,” he said, responding to a question of whether or not the 5000 person demonstration against inadequate funding of post-secondary education had moved him at all to reconsider the U of A’s 1978-79 operations grant.
“No doubt that it met its objective of drawing attention to the concerns of the students and staff,” he said.
He reiterated his. earlier position that the university must demonstrate its needs for more
operating funds, and said it was up to the President. and the Board of Governors to: ake the — case when he was ask what sorts of evidence he would consider demonstrative of need.
“The U of A governors said they were in need and it is up to them to make the case.”
He pointed out the debate on university funding was not over and had only been ad- journed last week in the house by the Premier.
He declined to comment on an allegation by NDP leader Grant Notley that the Premier’s. statement in the legislature that Alberta paid the highest amount of money per capita on post secondary education in Canada was in direct conflict with infor- mation contained in an official Advanced Education report on tuition fees.

Lukat’s latest achievement was getting the Students’ Union to shell out $800 to bring Zarlenga (who modestly bills himself as the world’s greatest philosopher and America’s greatest orator) in from Chicago to speak at SUB Theatre this past Monday. Zarlenga attracted an audience of around 40 people which included perhaps 20 fans, converts, minions (take your pick), a couple of media represen- tatives, and about 20 others who apparently got lost looking for

Although we _ listened repeatedly to the tape of Zarlenga’s speech and a team of translators worked overnight on his printed handouts we never were quite able to determine exactly who or what Zarlenga is. Someone suggested he was like a cross between an_ efficiency expert and a kinky Norman Vincent Peale if you can imagine what that would be like.
Actually, more than anything else Zarlenga appears like a man attempting to be a sophist. Like Gorgias and Protagaras, Zarlenga claims that he can make you successful, and unlike those ancient Greeks he has a simple formula-to offer. Identify, simplify, concentrate and move are the magic words and if you think that this is little more than an elementary model of how -an organized person should approach a_ task, something that should be ob- vious to any moderately reflec- tive adolescent, then you probably wouldn’t have been too impressed with Zarlenga.
Is that all there is? I’m afraid so.’ Apart from some ludicrous ramblings about his own greatness and some random potshots at unsuspecting members of the audience Zarlenga really seemed to have nothing to say.
Zarlenga did’ offer some rather naive criticism of modern skepticism and value relativism but his comments smacked more of primitive demagoguery than an attempt to promote intelligent discussion on what are un- deniably important subjects.
Perhaps the most curious aspect of Zarlenga’s perfor- mance was his bizarre assump- tion that those laughing at him were somehow afraid of him. He continuously asked people in the audience if they thought he was a bastard or a dangerous man; and it appeared he greatly desired to be thought of in such terms. In fact his attempts to appear awesome and threatening were — pitiful when not simply laughable. :
Manfred Lukat delivered a combination introduction and testimonial and then dutifully answered Zarlenga’s questions about his education. Manfred readily admitted that he had learned more from his new teacher (for only $25!) than he had at university at the cost of thousands of dollars.
After this amusing | little dialogue Zarlenga smiled and said “well 1 made one convert anyway. And he only took one
-day to convince.” We can only
hope. that Manfred’s next messiah charges the Student Union less than $800 a speech.

HUB — convenient, noisy, cheap...
by Sherri McCann
Did you know that HUB has the largest insulated vault dome in the world? | didn’t. Most of the 900 tenants living there probably don’t either. But they DO know about the poor laundry facilities, dirty windows, greasy food smells and temperamental plumbing.
_ However, according to the results of the HUB Tenants’ Association Second Annual Survey, in spite of these irritations, most of the tenants are reasonably happy living there.
What’s good about living in HUB? Most students mention convenience; classes and libraries are near, there’s no hassling with University parking. and HUB mall provides some shopping, fast food ~ services, laundry and = dry cleaning facilities (such as they are). And Friday’s is just downstairs when you need a beer and some company. It is nice living in perpetual springtime when it’s 40 below outside. As one student put it “The only day | have to go outside is Tuesday.”
Other students are there primarily because they believe its cheap. At rents ranging trom $155.00 for a small one man unfurnished to $383.00 for a four-man furnished (and rents are to go up by a further 7% in September), it’s certainly not dirt cheap. But compared to the inflated rents .of other apartments in the University area, most students consider it

Students’ Council has pass- ed a motion expressing dis- satisfaction with the U of A Board of Governors (B of G) for its opposition to the March 15 university protest.
March 15, more than 5,000 students and staff demonstrated against what they consider to be inadequate funding of post- secondary education. Monday March 13, the B of G had directed university president Harry Gun- ning not to participate in the rally and expressed dissatisfac- tion at the General Faculties Council decision to close classes the afternoon of the March.
Students’ Council agreed to send a letter condemning the Bof G for the action

pretty reasonable. It should be. After all, when HUB was built, it was considered ‘the most economical University residence in Canada in terms of cost performance’.
Dave Cockle, Chairman of the HUB Tenants’ Association says “probably the most fre- quent tenant complaints are about laundry facilities. There’s not enough machines and those available are often broken down.” One student commented in the survey “for 50¢ and as many kicks, the machine grinds in everyone else’s dirt. After about three washes you need a new wardrobe.”
Accessibility to food stores in another major complaint. The only grocery store in the mall is considered too expensive. Many students answering the survey expressed. an interest in par- ticipating in a car pool for grocery shopping.
Parking is apparently
“Criticism is one thing; bad manners is another,” said law rep. Tony Melnechuk. He dis- agreed with the preamble to the letter saying it was sarcastic.
“We are trying to say what we think,” said ed. rep. Bruce Shelsky. “The Board of Gover- nors has not acted responsibly.”
Students’ Council has raised the salaries of their executive members from $4,200 to $5,400 per year.
The raise affects the five executive members of the next Students’ Council who will take office March 29.
VP finance, Dale Somer- ville, said the present council was raising the salaries now because they believed it would look bad for the first act of the new council
another serious problem. Only fifty stalls are available for HUB tenants — far fewer than the number of car owners. Also, there are no parking facilities for HUB visitors. .
A lot of tenants complain that their suites are excessively dusty and dry. Lighting is also poor and temperature regulation is next to impossible. (One student commented that he regulated heat in his suite by turning off the-oven or asking his girlfriend over.)
Excessive noise is another ss
serious complaint. However,
this seems to depend on the § 3 particular location of the apart- §
ment. Suites above the pool hall,

Friday’s, and those near the frequently used stairwells are affected most.
One student suggested that “kicking all the drunks out of Friday’s” would make his -ex- istence a lot more peaceful!

Arts rep, Steve ‘Kushner, who proposed the motion, said it was. important the Board of
Governors’ know. the student council’s position. He said the
board’s action “... brings into question the autonomy of the University.”
Council votes pay raise
to be giving themselves a raise.
A paper was presented to council outlining the expenses of an executive. The paper included food, housing, and all other living expenses.
Science rep, Nick Cooke, agreed the executives were un- derpaid for the amount of work they do but suggested all students’ union employees be allowed to bargain for a raise in salary by submitting their needs.

Our university has
taken steps towards realizing the.need for these studies but unless _ student demands are focused on the administration and faculties,
further changes may not occur.
The need for a national focus on the liberal arts, as well as on applied scientific research, has been well documented since 1970. It has been shown that Canada is one of the few nations in the world which does not have a comprehensive educational program designed to inform its citizens about the place they inhabit: (the
stress is on information, not indoctrination).
We all know the
feeling of being Canadian — anyone who has been called an
American knows what | mean
-— but the feeling must be
articulated if we are to grow as a culture rather than as a satellite of our dear neighbours, the Americans. Certainly, we are a part of the North American culture, but the differences between us and them — as manifested in our government structure and
in our laws, in our cities, in our health care programs, and in our
state influenced economy —
. illustrate
a uniqueness that
Canada must understand before it may come to grips with the problems it faces. Applying American methodology to Canadian questions will not solve ‘our problems.
Mr. Ekelund must acquaint himself with the arguments used consistently by opponents of Canadian studies — that knowledge is universal and there is little to be gained from an investigation of Canadian issues, that the resources do not exist to adequately teach a Canadian studies program, that standards of international scholarship prohibit academics from studying national issues, and
“so on — and be prepared with counter arguments. Moreover, he
must speak to students who are
turned away from courses in
Canadian history because of an overdemand, and get them to act, to push for change. Similar cases can be made for first year Canlit courses, for economics, sociology and some of the sciences such as
geology, geography, agriculture ministration.
and Canadian business ad-
If this issue is going to be taken seriously, the university must
be forced to re-examine its tenure system:
if it cannot find
qualified people withing the present faculty, then it must make
room for them. Tenure cannot
be used as an excuse for not
dismissing faculty members in order to accomodate others who meet the students’ desire'for knowledge. It is unfair to students that they are taught Western Canadian history by a specialiston the American revolution. The rapid rise in enrolment in Canadian studies illustrates students’ desire to know more about their country and the university should move as quickly as it can to
facilitate this need. Go to it Mike!

Schmidt’s Cautious look at SU Conspiracy (Feb.16 , prompts me to extend apologies. These must go to Greg - for having caused his friend to defend him (Stephen Cain - Mar. 9); and (2) Stephen - for causing him ap- parently enough contusion, to read what he only wanted to read, which prompted him to waste his time.
I must apologize because my letter apparently conveyed the impression of no personal social intercourse with Greg. -| also admit to having full knowlege of Greg’s participation in the 1976/77 committees, etc., cited. Personally, | could have commented in detail as to their performance in that year (Academic Affairs Board tre- quently held the regular night time meetings in RATT) but, that was not my intent.
1 should have anticipated contusion and written “Who does he think he is, and where does he get off writing cynical letters when his obvious talent, knowlege of the SU, and, moreover, his reputation were needed to change apathetic attitudes, and build a better SU in 77-78?” All we heard or saw of him, however, were seemingly bitter letters.
My expose was merely to indicate a comparison between someone who had demonstrated and continues to. exhibit enthusiastically, determination and stamina. In my view, this enthusiasm demonstrated by Cheryl et al. needs to be better promoted and further acknowleged when: evident. Moreover, these are the people who deserve support-and ‘utmost respect’.

There may not have been throngs of fans at the airport when the team arrived home, to be sure. But in the hearts of many on this campus, especially res students, the Bears’ efforts were highly appreciated, and will not be forgotten for a long, long time.

“Allee allee out are in free!!”
You have a pretty good idea of what was going on in there. While Alderperson Olivia Butti tried to find the rest of her colleagues, a delega-
bend tried to make their presentation in support of Keillor Road to Coun- Chere
“Look,-it won’t hurt the god- damn park to have one little road running through it,” said their spokesman, Clint Crocker. “So what if 16,000 cars use a one-lane cow path every day? If it saves me having to i listen to five more minutes of Wes Montgomery on CHED every mor- ning, so much the better!”
The lone voice of dissent came from an elderly gentleman who lived at the Belgravia end of Keillor Road
“If that road ain’t sealed off before
next Monday morning, I’m gonna take that spare gelignite in my garage and wire it under the damn road, and the first high-falootin Riverbend executive that comes. along on his way to College Plaza is going to be blown clear into Beverley!” 7 This threat did not fall on idle ears, for two or three of the Aldermen, and a couple of the City Commissioners, used Keillor Road regularly. They nervously began figuring out alternate routes, as the debate raged on. :
Alderman Norris, meanwhile, had finished purchasing Edmonton
Centre, and was now _ trying desperately to clinch the deal on Eaton’s.
“I want you to smile when you say Eaton’s!” he said, with a strange

Beam in his eye. “I want: you to smile when you SELL Eaton's!” And when I'm finished here, I’m going to buy out Carpet World and have Tom Wilkinson shot,to death!”
This was too much for the store manager, who quietly pressed a button under his desk, summoning two burly store detectives. As Norris was dragged away, kicking and screaming, he shouted “I want Simpson-Sears Kingsway Garden Mall! | want the Bay Londonderry!”
Meanwhile, our _ illustrious premier had found his way to the Safeway on 102nd at 124th Street, _ where he intended to pick up the latest record in the Funk & Wagnall Family Library of Great Music. He had Beethoven’s Sixth and Tchaikovsky’s Le Pathetique, but had missed out on Chubby Checker Swings n’ Sways.
As Peter wound his way up and down the aisles, past fresh fruits and canned ham, Lucerne Granola and Commonwealth Games ashtrays, he noticed that a mysterious woman dressed ina long, black evening gown was following his every move. Every time he turned around she would disappear behind a soap display. Finally, out of sheer exasperation, he ran up and grabbed her.
“What are you doing? Why are you following me?”
The woman was somewhat taken aback but quickly regained her
-composure. She replied in a thick Eastern European accent —
“We will be most pleased if you would help please by not struggling or tryink to escape — our agents are all over dis store and we would-hate ,

The View from Left Centre
by J.C. LaDalia
The Edmonton Symphony’s program at their last pair of concerts was a bit parsimonious: the major work was but 28 minutes and three other works were less than fifteen minutes each. Is our attention span being questioned? Whatever happened to the monster concerts of -the nineteenth century, as when Beethoven’s Eroica was first performed ‘amidst five or six other works? Do we really listen so much more concentratedly today that an hours listening is as much as we can absorb? If the program had included ear-stretching works of the Webern/ Penderecki sort it might be understandable, but this was a pretty confortable concert.
The program opened with Ralph Vaughan Williams’ Overture to The Wasps, from his suite for Aristophanes’ play. It’s a delightful work, having everything to do with Elgar’s England, and nothing to do with Greece, ancient or otherwise. The opening buzz of strings was sharply conveyed, and the big, hearty main melody was irresistable, though a bit
heavily played prior to the coda. The audience loved it,
so we may hear the whole suite some day.
Concertmaster James Keene was the evening’s soloist in Bruch’s G minor Violin Concerto. For sucha popular concerto this work has a high degree of introspection, but the melodies are so heartfelt, and the finale so lively that it remains one of the few works for which the prolific Bruch is still remembered.
Keene has a sweet tone but not a robust one, and on Saturday night he was frequently covered by other solo instruments, such as the oboe at the opening, even though Maestro Hetu seemed especially concerned to keep the orchestra in check. Keene also played rather cautiously in ‘parts of the first movement which contrasted with Hetu’s intense approach. Keene’s recapitulation of the opening theme (which leads into the Adagio) was quite lovely however.
In the Adagio Keene’s phrasing tended to lack thrust. Many long melodic phrases were played well but without shape, making little of a particular note or smaller phrase. Thus the only climaxes were dynamic ones, in spite of the songful inwardness which makes any performance a touching one. Again, there were moments of really beautiful playing, but the final result was a bit bland.
The exciting finale began -rather ferociously instead of with passionate warmth. Again Keene’s playing, while accurate and appealing, was a bit cautious and orchestral solos tended to obscure his line.
Keene’s encore was a rarity, Fritz Kreisler’s
James Keene —
Praeludium and Allegro. \n the first section Keene brought a good deal of intensity to bear and the result was exciting. The Allegro, however, with its flashy double-stops and elaborate runs needs a big, virtuoso tone which galvanizes the audience, as Kreisler or Heifetz had. Keene’s technical control was impressive, and he handled the work with confidence, but the result was not really heroic enough.
Mozart’s little Symphony #32 followed intermis- sion. Just when we were prepared to settle down to some really ‘heavy listening’ we were offered, instead, a ten-minute overture-like work. (The symphony may, in fact, have been written aS the overture to Mozart’s Zaide.) Nevertheless, from Hetu’s first sharp attack this was a highly satisfactory performance. The Andante’s serenade-like qualities were charmingly brought out, with delightful bassoon: underpinnings.
first violin of the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra.
Kodaly’s Dances of Galanta is an entertaining, splashy way to conclude a concert. This Hungarian dance rhapsody is colorfully orchestrated and provides an effective showpiece for a good orchestra. Hetu took the opening in an edgy, abrupt manner which was more dramatic than the beguiling, inviting way it is often handled.
Charles Hudelson’s clarinet solos were attractive and firmly played. Indeed all the winds. played excellently, and such passages as the flute and piccolo duet, and the droll, nicely accented bassoon solo should be singled out for praise. Hetu’s rhythmic precision was constantly in evidence, with the principle dance theme played beautifully by full orchestra. Only at the finale did Hetu permit matters to become too hectic so that the melody which ends the work was obscured in a general swirl of sound.
As an example of incredibly insipid and un- intelligible art reportage, P. Jardine is rivalled only by The. Journal’s. Helen Melnyk. 1 can only ask who afforded her crippled sensibility the opportunity of slavering uncontrollably in type face.
Jardine saw fit only to poll the largely juvenile comments in the Guest book of the B.F.A: exhibition, with a little big brother-counselling thrown in for good measure. One sentence is devoted to the work. If The Gateway desires copy dealing with art, then surely they could find someone capable of intelligent criticism.
Jardine’s unsubstantiated notation of those who “showed the most promise” leads one to ask - promise of what? Those cited are exactly those (although she overlooked some) who are indicative of inarticulate, directionless, superficial imagery and inconsistent
content showing promise of God knows what. Jardine, however, merely deigns to list six names, deals with none of the work, and yet lays claim to writing a review of an art exhibition. Jardine’s article indigenously offends everyone participating in the show whether good or bad. Richard Titus Graduate Student EDITOR'S NOTE: etiand design My apologies to P. Jardine and the B.F.A. studentsfor the headline What? Could this be bonafide art? What was intended in the spirit. of levity was mis-interpreted as questionable criticism. (Incidentally, DTR’s photo was lost by the printers, this was not meant as a dumb joke.) As for the above-letter from R. Titus, I would remind him that none of us profess to be outstanding art critics.
While persons like yourself hypocritically attack those who comment on art in a way that does not meet your self- prescribed conception of art you offer neither your-expertise nor your time to these pages. Others, like Paula, offer their energies and talents.

Milfred in Guadalajara and the New Colonials —
_ by Milfred Campbell
“These goddamn Mexicans are so unpredictable,” sez Gillian. She’s upset because Juanita the maid hasn’t shown up and poor Gillian had to handle the great barbecue she had in Tom Leery and my honor. (Gillian’sexcuse for doing it was; “it’s worth it just to be able to talk decent English with someone else for a
- change.”) Chasing after Alice, my remedial English’ _professor is what got us into this scene — Alice knows all of the English teachers in Guadalajara. Almost wish I'd forgotten Alice, cause this Guadalajara scene we’ve popped into is about as decadent as the old Friday’s scene with Irma and all her fine arts groupies. We’re sitting out on the patio, plates piled up wiht a heap of ribs and empty bottles of Mexican Riesling all around, us. (Gillian apologizes that it isn’t the real stuff.)
Besides Gillian, there’s Marsha and Anspach — and Alice of course. Gillian’s British, the rest are Canadian. There are more Canadians in Mexico than you'd think. Marsha interrupts and sez that her maid’s punctual, fast and reliable — and only fora hundred pesos ‘a week. Gillian groans.
Anspach sez; “I pay mine only 80, but she doesn’t wash. Everything in the house stinks of her once she’s been through.”
“Oh, come on,” sez Alice, “how can you people complain — 80 pesos, that’s less than four-dollars a week.”
“That’s true — the poor things would starve if it wasn’t for us,” sez Gillian. Tom drops his wineglass on the tiled concrete. Alice shrugs.
“Tell us about the new movies you’ve seen — like A Star is Born or Why Shoot the Teacher,” asks Marsha, “and tell me about this Rudy Wiebe guy that
the Globe and Mail’s talking about.”
“And really, who is Joe Clark?” asks Anspach, which is not too odd considering that he’s from Star City, Saskatchewan. Alice gives me one of her ‘what are we doin here’ looks, and then drops her wineglass.
“It’s Saturday, I think we should do something,”
Jackson Browne -
by Gordon Turtle
The Asylum record label has become to Los Angeles in the seventies what Motown'was to Detroit in the Sixties, and in some ways Jackson Browne isto Asylum what Stevie Wonder was to Motown. Jackson Browne has.emerged as a mentor for the new L.A. based school of singers/songwriters most of whom record on Asylum; and Browne’s new album, Running on Empty is a milestone for Asylum and Jackson Browne himself. Running on Empty is a live album, but a live album with some differences. All of the material is new, and it was recorded not only on stage, but also in hotel rooms and on Browne’s tour bus. Los Angeles, Asy/um, and Jackson Browne have become inextricably tied together in a late Seventies dominaton of American popular music and Browne remains the symbolic leader. The material provided from concerts on Running on Empty certainly serves to illustrate why his songwriting remains as subtle and poised as it was when he wrote “Jamaica Say You Will” ten years ago, and his backing band, primarily David Lindley and Danny Kortchmar,. provide Browne’s
musical arrangements witha unique immediacy. Like Joni Mithcell’s Hejira, Running on Empty is an album about the road, and, also like Hejira, it dramatically documents the artist as a musician and as
sez Tom. It works — Gillian’s distracted from the glass on the floor. “Tell me what,” she sez.
“Let’s go dancing,” sez Tom to my great relief — we've had it talking ourselves dry about Canadian
culture as it is and about ‘that bastard Levesque.’
“Found out about this great place,” I sez, the Plaza De Los Mariachis.” :
“But it isn’t a disco,” complains Gillian.
“Who gives a fuck,” dancing.”
“Yeah,” sez Anspach and drops his wine glass. We're up and moving before we know it with Gillian swearing at us about her English crystal.
The Plaza De Los Mariachis is a broad plaza that extends out in front of an old church, and the plaza’s set up like a beer garden which gives you a nice idea of the Mexican attitude to life. We meet Eduardo, a Zapotec Indian who’s told us about this place the last time we met him, which was when he wanted 10 pesos for a bottle of El Presidente brandy.
Doesn’t know a word of English, except how to say his name but his sign language’s quite descriptive. He pulls us aside and unwraps a tube.of news paper to display four, still green flowertops of Mexico’s finest. “Muis bueno,” he sez.
“Muis bueno,” we all say in unison a couple of times after doing two ordinary sized numbers rolled in newspaper. It’s got to be good because I can’t talk anymore. The place is full of Indians from the country carrying plastic jugs of lukewarm tequila and coke dancing away.
Can’t talk anymore, so we re accepting all halle of the jugs and taking swig after swig.
Grab Alice and we thrust ourselves in front of the band where the trumpets, the violins and the guitars are the loudest. It’s aslow Ranchero number (Mexican equivalent of country and western) about the death of an old cockfighter. The sweaty crowd pushes Alice against my thighs ima nice sort of way. Isee Eduardo in the crowd — he winks and then flexes his muscles at me.
sez Alice, “‘let’s do some real,"
“I want you Alice,” | say grabbing her waist tight.
“What’s new,” she sez.
“Now that I’ve found you here in Guadalajara, why don’t we get away from this scene.”
“You're crazy,” she sez.
“I’m not,” | sez, “the barbecues, the stupid talk — it’s all like home.” —
‘Worse really, discussing maids and going to discos. You can’t get away from it.”
The Mariachi band’s into another Ranchero song called Contrabando which is about a guy and his buddies who smuggle pot in tires into the U.S. fora woman. After the job the guy doesn’t want the money the woman’s promised — he wants her love instead. So she shoots him and she keeps the money. It’s a very sad slow tune’ with the singer almost crooning it. It makes us sad. I can feel it in her body:
“I thought just coming down here was all you needed to do. But it takes more than that — you’ve got to reject this side and take off to the mountains, otherwise it’s the same bad, old thing.”
“Come to the Yucatan with me,” I sez. She looks | at me for a long time. Then; “Oh hell why not. I’m tired of feeling like a poor character i in some Graham Greene novel.”
I’m overcome — | didn’t think she’d agree so readily. I flex my arm at Eduardo. His round fat Indian face smiles all over with understanding. He comes over with the jug and we toast each other.
The band’s into a fast number — Eduardo thrusts: two women between me and Alice, one’s about eighty, toothlessand with her own jug, the other must be her granddaughter, not older than fourteen — but enough to bring Tom Leery away from our table where the present topic under discussion is why inefficiency seems to be a trait of southern people.
There is wild lust in Tom’s eyes especially since he’s got a fetish for knee socks.
It seems we’re already on our way out of here. When you want it Mexico swallows you up with open, inviting arms.
leading the Asylum charge
a person: Browne wrote or co-wrote most of the material on the album, but also included are songs by the now obscure Danny O‘Keefe, Danny Kortchmar, Lowell George; and Valerie Carter. Because he is able to communicate a harsh reality through a quiet, (and perhaps sensual) desperation in his voice, Browne’s lyrics carry the impact of a Joni Mitchell song, though they usually lack the poetry of Joni’s lyrics. Browne’s poignancy is most noticeable in “The Loadout,” asong written for and about Jackson’s roadies and his audiences:
“Now the seats are all empty
Let the roadies take the stage
Pack it up and tear it down
They’re the first to come and last to leave
Working for that minimum wage
They'll set it up in another town
Tonight the people were so fine
They waited there in line
And when they got up on their feet they made the show And that was sweet ...” |
“The Loadout” gains special attention through its often outrageous rhyme:
“Now roll them cases and lift them amps
Haul them trusses down and get ‘em up those ramps ‘Cause when it comes to moving me
You guys are the champs”
“The Loadout” medley,
is the first part of a two-song the latter half being the one-verse song, “Stay.” Backing vocalist Rosemary Butler. provides some electrifying vocals in “Stay,” while David Lindley makes a “rare” and bizarre cameo vocal appearance.
_ Unlike his previous four albums Browne limits his own playing on Running on Empty primarily to piano rather than guitar. His music seems not to change much from album to album, but when you listen to his first album, it becomes apparent how much his music has in fact, developed. He now has complete confidence in his voice and his songs, and a full backing band allows his material to stretch the boundaries of folky arrangements, an opportunity his band takes advantage of by really rocking it up at times.
] found it hard to imagine how Jackson Browne could follow his 1976 album The Pretender, (the title track of which is an anthem for the Seventies), but Running on Empty is at least as important as the previous work. It re-defines the live album, takes the campiness out of songs about life-on-the-road, and
~ starkly brings to the fore the brooding sensitivity of
Jackson Browne. Running on Empty is a lovely, sad, _ hopeful album, and only serves to strengthen Browne’s position as the spiritual leader of the Asy/um artists.

‘sports Quest for Title Underway
On Sunday, March 19 the Golden Bear Team Handball Club got off to a significant start in its quest to win the A divison championship of the two-tiered Alberta Provincial League. The team squeaked by Edmonton Canucks 24-2] with players Michael Belanger (6 goals), Gerry Bim (7), Ron Gorgichuk (5), Terry Bertel (3), Rene Tur- cotte (2) and Frank Rinsonnault (1) scoring for the Bears. The Bears’ defence, which had never jelled completely in the game, combined with Canucks Goalie Anton Odynski’s superb play, kept the final score in doubt right up until the final minutes. Odynski was outstanding in the second half stopping 3 of 5 penalty shots as well as making terrific stops in field play; con-

In the second game of the day the -Bears out-ungged Ed- monton Sunrise 37-31. The vic- tory was especially sweet for the, Bears as they had lost o Sunrise by | and 2 goals respectively, in two previous encounters. The Bears showed how. much they have improved over the season as they refused to fold in the game and kept their high-powered offensive machine.in high gear as they rar up their highest offen- sive score of the season. Surpir- sing to say, but goalie Isadore Gauthier - who, by his own admission, played poorly in the first game - was incredible in this second game. Using his rapier- quick arms he continously made breath-taking saves at point blank range that left Sunrise
Commonwealth Threat
Just recently returned from the Canadian Amateur Swim- ming Association’s Short Course Championships in Vancouver, were university team swimmers Derek Cathro, Butch Skulsky, Mike Cook, Ron New, Julie Sanderson and Janet Rooney. Qualifying times for this week were extremely tough and swimmers from York University, Acadia, Simon Fraser and Toronto also took part. ‘Despite
physical and psychological dit- ficulty all swimmers perftrmed with credit, making finals or consolation finals Outstanding though was the performance of DEREK CATHRO in the men’s 100 m. Butterfly where he placed second in the final in a personal best performance behind Toron- to’s Don Thompson and automatically made selection to the Canadian swim team which meets against the mighty Russians in a dual meet scheduled in Toronto April 21 and 22nd. Unfurtunately Derek,
an engineering student, had to turn down the honour of swim- ming for Canada because of final examinations.
“With continued training.
and effort he stands an excellent chance of making the Com- monwealth. games team later in the year,” stated coach John Hogg.

‘Division I] Champs
The Zate-Chieftains from the AAA unit combined talents this year*to form the hockey champions of Division Il. After coming off a° double overtime win over Recreation in the Semi- final, AAA won a see-saw battle over a very tough Delta Upsilon team 4-3. The outcome was in doubt until the final whistle as the teams put on an exciting and
enjoyable hockey game for the fans.
It was a come from behind win, as the Zate Chieftains had to Overcome a I-U dclicit late in the first period. However, they took a 2-1 lead into the dressing room after the D.U.’s came fighting back, tying it early in the third until AAA popped in 2 quick
goals late in the final frame.

The attraction of this match will not only be to see top volleyball players execute all their skills, but also to see two evenly matched teams square off.
They have split previous con- tests.
Golden Bear grad Bob Matwichuk, who is trom La- mont, Alberta, will be in the line- up for Canada and should stull- block many American players. Tickets for the matches are

The enthusiastic spectators provided an electrifying at- mosphere as each individual athlete fought within himself to gain first place in their particular event.
Olympian Dan _ Biocchi broke the 300 m record-34.7 in his heat by a time of 34.3, and then with his great knowledge and experience went on to win the final in yet another breathtaking Canadian record of 34.1.
Sean Kehoe, the new star of the team, broke the standing record of 7.0, time of 6.9. Witha happy smile on his face Sean then went onto win the final with his record of 6.9 flat: Dan Biocchi and Sunil Joseph tied the old record of 7.0.
The men’s 1500 m final was won by the university’s outstan- ding distance runner Lyle Kuchmak, who later went on to
win the 3000 m with a time of:
8:30.9, breaking the standing record of 8:31.9. Blaine Whitford performed his best ever time of 8:48.7.
Another highlight was the men’s 4 x 100 m relay. The outstanding performance’ of Biocchi, Cree, Kehoe, and Swan, gave them first place, by break- ing the old record 44.0 and setting a new one in a time of 43.7.
The Pandas, hampered by
juries, came a strong second..
Margo Howe, an Olympic. athlete won her heat in the 60 m, and went on to win the final missing the record by 1/10 ofa second.
Sue
Farley put on a
‘marvelous sprint between the
Hurdles in the final -to tie the standing record 8.6.
Shauna Miller, the (3rd year law student) CWUAA cross country champion won the 3000 m in an outstanding time of 9:58.1 setting a new record, as this is the first time it has been an event in these particular cham- pionships. The outstanding male
-athlete a‘vard was given to Gerry
Swan, tne winner of the long jump and the triple jump events, and a member 01 wie winning 4 x 100 relay team (16.5 pts).
The outstanding female athlete | award was won by Joanne Jones of the U of S.

The real problem with nuclear power is that too many people are of the same style as the tribesmen who castigated Joe the Cro-Magnon man for discover- ing fire. Mention nuclear energy, and you will soon gather a rabid group of protesters, anxious to prevent what they cannot or will rnot understand. Not all those Opposed to nuclear power fall into this category; only enough to make things difficult for those who have taken the time to find out what the real benefits and problems are in nuclear power.
The ‘act is, as much as most conservationists and anti- nuclear lobbyists hate to admit it, we are going to soon reach a point where energy is going to get expensive. When it does, for that matter before it does, we have to make a decision whether we value our way of life more than we value the time it will take to
discover answers to the problems
The Analytic Lab
posed by nuclear power plants. No rational person denies that such answers could be found; few, however, are doing anything about getting them.
What alternatives can be otfered, either by those who know of other power-production methods or those who oppose nuclear power? how amy knowledge, none ever have been offered that could come anywhere near the price or safety of nuclear power. Pollution from nuclear power exists; no supertanker, however, is going to pollute half a sea with the fuel of
a nuclear reactor. Waste problems exist, but present storage techniques, when
properly applied and supervised, are adequate to store the wastes until better disposal or recycling techniques can be developed. The advantages of nuclear power are plain to see. It is relatively cheap, when compared to oil and gas. Its fuel is easily
transported from place to place, and is an extremely compact stored energy form. It can be used to run power plants, ships, provide electricity for trains and support other forms of mass transit. We already have an adequate power network, to which nuclear power plants can be added with little modification. This also helps keep the cost of power down. As well, we already have enough technology to start the changeover, and we could have it completed betore oil and gas become scarce enough to pinch seriously.
It strikes me that the same people who - protest nuclear power development are those who support efforts to develop third world countries. 1 too support such aid, but I fail to see
how the developed countries can’
offer it unless they themselves are in a stable enough position to
living while raising that of other peoples. Civil unrest, tight money and recessionary trends are already beginning to appear in the western woriu; now much worse, and how much poorer our ability to aid, when our lack of energy bankrupts us. Instead of raising the underdeveloped to our level, we would be allowing ourselves to slide backwards into the mire.
As recent letter to~ the Gateway complained longwindedly of the “eu-
phemism” used in reports on nuclear power development. - It
derided bitterly the “attitude of
the high priests of nuclear power”, and claimed that nuclear power proponents were building a facade of safety. Not one word was offered to back up this argument; not one idea was put forward to provide an alternate power source. Accusations and polemic were its content, and
nothing else.
If the writer of that letter is take seriously and finds agree- ment in the public, I see little recourse for me but to find a hole in the wall for me and my family to get into, because without inexpensive power, western society has got to fall apart. The deaththroes of a way of life area dangerous thing to be involved in, and | would rather not be there. es,
As well, to the writer of that letter, a question. When your house gets cold in the winter, when there isn’t any fuel for the car, the factories or the fire, will you be willing to slip back to a way of life which will not allow you the luxuries you now enjoy? Or will you grab a sign, this time to promote your conifort? | think you won't bother with the sign; you'll be a volunteer on the construction crew.

Canada is one of the world’s leading countries in atomic technology; the CANDU reactor
system has been hailed as one of
the safest, cheapest and most efficient methods of releasing the power locked in radioactive fuels. As well, Canada has a large resource base for the develop- ment of nuclear power, with sizeable uranium deposits, along with other fissionable. materials. Several questions, however, stand in the way of this possible aid to Canada’s shrinking energy resources. Disposing of atomic wastes Is a problem which has yet to be solved. Safety in the area surrounding the reactor, leakage and operations — difficulties, although better understood, are also of concern,
The CANDU reactor was designed in Canada to fill a gap in reactor technology. Previous reactors had been designed to use enriched uranium fuel, that ts, uranium containing a_ high proportion of fissionable U-235. The reason’ for avoiding this standard enriched fuel was that
extra processing and handling.
(and therefore extra hazards) were caused by the enrichment process. As well, handling the fuel is less hazardous in the CANDU system. The CANDU system uses a “heavy-water” cooling and moderating system to carry heat through a heat
exchanger, There, the heat is transferred to ordinary water, which is used to drive the
generating turbines.
Several” variants to the “standard CANDU system have been the subject of research. At the Whiteshell Nuclear Research Establishment, near Pinawa, Manitoba, tests with organic fluids as a coolant medium are presently underway. One power reactor was built with a system which used “light” water to cool the reactor. This “boiling-water” system worked poorly, and the reactor has been shut down for
2 6
more than a year. Other research is taking place at the Chalk River Laboratory.
There are a large number of plants presently in operation or under construction in Ontario, Quebec and New Brunswick. The largest system in Canada at th moment is that belonging to Ontario Hydro. Its network includes the 20-megawatt Douglas Point reactor at the Bruce Nuclear Power Develop- ment, four 750-megawatt reac- tors also at Bruce, and four 500- megawatt reactors at Pickering,
just outside of Toronto. As well,
plans are underway and con- struction already begun for a four reactor plant totalling 2000- megawatts at Dralington, as well as four 500 megawatt units’ to add to Pickering and four 750- megawatt units to add at the Bruce establishment.
Quebec was the site of the ill-fated Gentilly-l reactor, designed to produce 600- megawatts using a light-water coolant system. This reactor is apparently permanently shut down. Atomic Energy of Canada Itd., the crown corporation which designs and sells reactors, has already begun construction
maintain their own standard of
- Mienace
of Gentilly-2, a standard CAN- DU design 600-megawatt reac- tor. Hydro Quebec is also com- mitted to build Gentilly-3, a twin to the second reactor. The reactors in Quebec are what is becoming the standard design for AECL, a 600-megawatt conventional CANDU reactor.
New Brunswick is building an atomic-powered generating station at Lpreau. Their reactor is also one of the standard 600- megawatt types. Reactors of this type are also being built in Argentina and South Korea, and are in operation in India. At present, Canada has three plants operating which produce the
“heavy water” needed for the‘
operation of CANDU reactors; a fourth is under construction.
Three basic hazards exist in atomic power plants, according to John Blackburn of the Atomic Energy Control Board, the government regulatory agency which acts as a watchdog over AECL. Waste disposal, weapons proliferation and reactor safety are the main worries of the AECB says Mr. Blackburn.
At present, wastes from Canada’s atomic reactors are stored in retrievable form in
or Miracle
concrete bunkers. Research is underway to discouver methods to recycle or safely dispose of these wastes permanently. As the plutonium by-product of uranium fission — is __ highly radioactive, storage sites must be licensed by the AECB and are
continuously _ monitored — for leakage. “the problem hasn’t been easolved< ie sayse~ Mr:
Blackburn, and he says that
when it will be is open to specula-
tion.
Proliferation regarded as one of the forgotten hazards of atomics. Since the announcement by India that it had developed the atomic bomb, quiet has settled over this issue. Federal policy, however, is still being wrangled out on this topic. Since, with the proper materials, any good engineer or physicist could build an atomic bomb, few of the major countries consider it a special hazard when they sell nuclear reactors
Reactor safety itself is a major concern at present. The AECB has contract research going on at research. and
educational institutions all over Canada, including the U. of A. Here, two professors from the
could be.
Civil Engineering department are studying the containment vessels used to house the reactors in use in Canada. Although their study is still incomplete, Dr. J. MacGregor says the results so far indicate that all designs tested appear to err on the side of safety and conservatism. Other reactor safety hazards can be roughly compared to hazards in in- dustrial plants or conventional electric power generating stations. A study recently com- pleted for the AECB stated that the type of energy production safest in terms of injuries per kilowatt of power produced was natural gas. Nuclear power came second, with oil and other sources further down the list. “Solar power was quite hazar- dous to. produce,” says Mr. Blackburn- “Not because it is more dangerous in itself, but because building the generators and collectors is quite a labour- intensive process, resulting in a high number of industrial ac- eidents.” If this is the case, and if a long-term solution can be found for nuclear waste disposal problems, nuclear power may
-well be the source of much of
tomorrow’s energy.
