New microprobe for geology dept.
by Alex Tindimubona
A new and _ sophisticated electron microprobe is being acquired by the Department of Geology. This was revealed at a Tuesday meeting of the Board of Governors Building Committee,
which approved funds for alterations to the laboratory space in the department to
accommodate the machine.
The case for approval was represented by Dr R. Lambert, Chairman of the department. He described the microprobe as an analytical tool which determines the structure of solids by hitting them with an electron beam. Being fully automated, it represents the latest in the state of the art and will enhance research greatly. “It will replace an older model, which will be released for less nit-picking operations, such as teaching purposes,” Lambert said.
The $350,000 microprobe is due for delivery at the end of November. It has been bought with grants from the former National Research Council, the Alberta Government, and the University. Lambert convinced
the Committee that the Universi- ty has to provide an additional $53,600 to make space ready for the machine, and to relocate the people who will be displaced by the probe project.
The machine will have implications for the whole un- iversity and beyond, Lambert said. He gave as an example the machine’s applicability in tar- sand analysis; to determine, for instance, the amount of titanium in a grain of sand.
Among other items ap- proved by the Committee were
&
renovations to the Den- tistry/ Pharmacy Building and the construction of a poultry building at . the Edmonton Research Station. Only the poultry approval was a final one: the other two must go onto the B of G for final endorsement.
In addition, R.E. Phillips, Vice-President (planning and development), gave a progress report on all major ongoing university projects, which in-
clude new _ constructions, renovations, landscaping and utilities.
Frye gives annual Tory lecture
Provincialism can be overcome
by Allen Young
Northrop Frye has good news for those who follow the Canadian literatures closely. He says the cultures are maturing.
A basic trend through the history of civilization has been for culture. to localize as. it develops, the noted Canadian humanist tolda full SUB theater audience Tuesday.
As soon as a community
finds its own circumference and becomes interested in what is within that’ imaginative struc- ture, it will be able to shrug off provincialism, he said.
By provincialism, he meant the tendency among artists to imitate the work of the culture they immigrated from. Canadian literature was one of his ex- amples, and today it is finally escaping that problem.

COTIAC sponsors rally and debate
by Adam Singer
- COTIAC says: fight back — against cutbacks in government funding of the U of A and tuition increases. That is why the Committee Opposing Tuition Increases and Cutbacks is holding an anti-cutbacks rally next Wednesday at 12 PM in the Arts Quad. COTIAC js counting on a large student turnout for this, its first major
activity of the year.
The rally will be preceeded on Tuesday by a public debate between Students’ Union presi- dent Cheryl Hume and John Schlosser, chairman of the Board of Governors. The debate will be held at 2 pm in SUB Theatre, and the issue to be discussed is “Demonstrations Don’t Work...” ,
COTIAC’s largest event to date is the rally-held last March 15 at the provincial legislature.
’ The rally attracted 5000 people
from Edmonton and_ across Alberta, including U of A presi- dent Harry Gunning, and resulted in a special debate in the legislature on funding of post- secondary institutions. Premier Lougheed and Advaned Educa- tion Minister Bert Hohol also promised to review the Alberta student loan system, although this has not yet been done.
Last year the B of G asked the government for a 15.3% increase in the U of A’s operating budget. The government
Protection needed at
responded with an 8.2% increase, $6.2 million less than what was requested. This has reportedly resulted in numerous reductions in university services, number of course sections, etc.
COTIAC’s point is that cutbacks are hurting students right now. One of its posters notes that there were 74 seminar sections offered in the faculty of Arts this year, as opposed to 320 five years ago, and that the number of labs in the Faculty of © Science has dropped from 452 to 303. Certainly the reductions in operating hours for the libraries and physical education facilities have not gone unnoticed by students.
COTIAC was formed last year by a group of concerned students. It’s two main goals are “to inform the university and Edmonton communities about cutbacks; and to involve as many students, faculty, staff, and community members as possible in the anti-cutbacks activities.”
UBC
TA’s may unionize
VANCOUVER (CUP) — Teaching assistants at the University of British Columbia (UBC) need to be unionized to protect
themselves against
the university administration’s
dis-
criminatory policies, David Fuller, president of teaching student’s association, said Monday.
“There has been a very noticeable swing in the feelings of people,” he said. “Those who were undecided before are now saying yes, we have to be unionized to successfully protect wages and working conditions.”
He said the administration told the association of teaching assistants that certain major items in the university budget were fixed by contract, such as faculty salaries and university staff salaries. But then the administration said teaching assistants are fléxible items, like stationary, he added.
“The .result. of this (flexible salaries) is that’ teaching assistant’s salaries have fallen below the cost of living for the past three years. We are sort of categorized with paper clips.”
It is largely because of unfair wages paid to teaching assistants that the UBC Graduate Students Association (GSA) decided to allocate $1,000 to the ATA for the possibility of
forming a union, said Smith.
“The GSA thinks a union is definitely necessary,” he said. “The GSA decided to get serious and stop playing kid’s games
(with the administration).”
Erich Vogt, faculty and student affairs vice-president, said he is surprised that teaching assistants are considering forming
a union.
“We (the administration) have been revising policy concerning teaching assistants and we are still discussing this
with them.”
Dr. Frye was heralded as “the foremost Canadian scholar”, at the 1978 Henry
Marshall Tory Lecture where he was guest speaker. Paraphrasing W. Stevens, a contemporary scholar, he Dointed out that man does not dve in what is commonly referred to as the world, rather he lives within the confines of his own imaginatively percieved struc-
ture.
There is nothing in nature that gives man a nationality, said Frye, but- when one travels to. Spain everything looks Spanish. This is an imaginative structure.
To think. of Canada nationally is to use a false category. To think of a loose bundle of individual cultures is the normal form of perception,
he said. continued on page 2

FRYE from page |
There is an explosion of local cultures in the world. There are the cultures developing out of the old colonies as well as small new cultures in such places as Wales and Quebec. It is a world wide and profoundly significant phenomonon, he said. To con- sciously hamstring it asif is being done in South Africa is perverse, he claimed.
Though developing a bun- dle of unique local cultures—a process that went on in Italy during the Renaissance, in England, and in the U.S. in this century—would seem to be divisive, it can be compatible with unity, said Frye.
“Genuine unity is a unity of
variety and the opposite of un- iformity.” As Dr Henry Kriesel paraphras- ed the words of -Frye in his introduction of the speaker, unity can be achieved through diversity. Real unity tolerates dissent and a distrust for diversi- ty is a distrust of life.
A problem with provincial art, said Frye, is that while an artist strives to meet the stan- dards of the “head cultural center”, he censors his own work.
Thus, much provincial literature -
is prudish, even if it strives to approach such themes as a woman roughing it in_ the northern Ontario bushland, said Frye.
Also, as a provincial writer tries to follow potentially ex- citing developments in the literature of the “head culture center”, the provincial reader is left with a bad feeling that something exciting is happening somewhere else.
“The feeling that there is a great parade going down another street cannot be divorced from provincialism.”
Provincialism is a byproduct of imperialism and has been more prevalent in Canada because of ties with

Humanist Northrop Frye Britain from the Loyalists and because of the mercantilist attitude that prevailed as the economic resources were ex- ploited, he said.
The U.S. shrugged off provincialism early because the
. American puritans were engaged
in a pamphlet war with the Englishmen they left behind, and the revolution crystalized an independent and local attitude.
With William Faulkner, America had developed its loose bundle of associated cultures and Faulkner demonstrated that trappings of individual culture were exportable. Today, Canada is developing its prairie literature, its Southern Ontario writers as well as Quebecois, maritime and pacific coastal genres.
Universities, he said, have a role to help make the small localitiés culturally viable and it ishopeddecentralization will help institutions return to the humanistic. attitude lost in the “hysteria of the sixties” that made them go professional.

The process of education is the re-creation of the lessons and literature of the past. Man lives within a framework of mythologies in his use of language and it is by looking at the old lessons and re-evaluating them that we “move forward while looking behind us” said Frye.
Among the mythologies man lives within, two themes—the perennial stories of settlement and | exile—form aspects of the tradi- tion that is continually recreated in the educative process.
“The future is not before us—the past is,” he said at the close of his lecture, remarking he was proud to be part of a lecture founded in the memory of Henry Marshall Tory, who founded three Canadian Universities, and was a pioneer in Canada of the great tradition of education.

Le Commissioner Harry de Jong
by Loreen Lennon
Ehe= positron: “of = SU Academic Commissioner, has been filled by a fourth-year commerce student. Harry de Jong was appointed by Council last week to fill the post, left vacant when Robin Wortman did not return to school in September.
Now in the process of settling into his new office, he joins Clubs Commissioner Catherine Neilsen and Housing and Transportation Com- -missioner Bruce Webster in the new level of student government conceived last year by the outgo- ing executive committee. Each commissioner acts as a liason between a member of the ex- ecutive and constituent student groups. They each _receive an honorarium of $100 a month.
As Academic Com- missioner, de Jong will sit as a member of the Academic Affairs Board, the Awards Committee and is a pon-voting member of the GFC Student Caucus. He also anticipates involvement in | such SU. committees as those | investigating
tenure, the bookstore and the student bill of rights.
More importantly, the com- missioner assists VP Academic Mike Ekelund, especially as a mediator between the SU and the Faculty Associations. In light of a recent move by BACUS to investigate associate SU membership, de Jong feels that

De Jong cited continuing interest and a light course-load this year as the primary reasons for his application for the posi- tion. Though it is still too soon to be sure, the new Academic Commessioner is confident that “something concrete can come out of this term.”
As yet, de Jong isn’t saying exactly what that something will be.
Safety usually comes first but this time it comes second. Nov. 2, that is.
.A one-day safety exposition will be held that Thursday from 9 am to 4 pm on the west side of CAB. A project of Personal Services and Staff Relations and University Occupational Health and Safety, the day will feature displays from the University, the provincial government and private industry.
The purpose of the show is

The University will have

PSA to hold general meeting
The Progressive Student Association (PSA) will hold its second general meeting today (Friday) at 4 pm in Tory 1-77.
New members are welcome to attend. Here are some of the interesting agenda items set by the last meeting: :
* discussion of involvement in an NUS referendum. The PSA last meeting decided to support the holding of a referendum on NUS membership at the U of A. * discussion of PSA film series with a-sneak preview of the first film: The History Book (to be shown November 20 and 21, Monday and Tuesday, in Tory TLIB). It is an entertaining cartoon history of colonialism
and western economic develop-
ment that would be of interest to’
students in various courses—like
‘history, sociology, economics,
poli sci, etc. Work on publicity for that film will begin at today’s meeting and future titles will be discussed.
* discussion of ways to support native students on campus, especially participation in Native Awareness Week.
* PSA involvement in the sup- port demonstration for long- suffering Parkland Nursing Home workers to be held -this Saturday (tomorrow).
* finalization of our constitu- tion, election of executive and other housekeeping details like
“
membership cards.
* deciding what committees to set up and what they’ll be doing through the year.
New ideas and suggestions
for activities are welcome. You can join the PSA today if you like to (as it says in our charter): a) advance and defend the common welfare of the students at the U of A, a b) promote development of strong democratic student representation ‘and institutions at all levels. c) encourage a self-awareness among students of their role in society and their rights and responsibilities as citizens.

The letter which appears in this issue as a reply to Derick Ackloo’s “Reader Comment” certainly does not answer the important and valid questions that Ackloo raised. The four ethnicity-conscious students who com- posed the letter, (it took four people to write that?), did not bother to counter Ackloo’s arguments, but rather chose to humiliate themselves with flippancy thinly disguised as a rebuttal. °°.
Obviously, Ackloo did address himself to both the racist and economic “rationale” behind differential fees, (and, contrary to what the writers imply, racism and economics are not separate issues here). Of course Alberta tax money goes towards partial subsidization of foreign students’ costs, but the percentage is much less per foreign student than it is per Albertan student. Would the four dissenters wish the sagging purses of the Alberta treasury to go towards increased salaries for our MLA’s? Perhaps Patzwald would, for, with his blind acceptance of the policies of our distant provincial government, he is the perfect heir to their throne.
A main point of Ackloo’s lucid argument was that Patzwald was running a campaign on the non-issue of differential fees. What Patzwald thinks about this matter is so unimportant now that even the pretense of making it an issue for election to Student Council is laughable; for Patzwald, this iseue filled the gap that ignorance of, and lack of interest in contemporary election issues left in his definitely unformidable campaign. Patzwald sought to appeal to the most narrow-minded, uninformed voters, and only attracted fifty-three. Fifty three is not representative, it is not victory for Conservatism, and it certainly does not measure the opinions-of education students.
Most important here, is the fact that Patzwald’s “supporters”, who felt compelled to defend him, have done both Patzwald and themselves a great disservice. They have shown conclusively that those who argue against differential fees are able to remain lucid and logical and those who support the policy are unable to competently defend their’ stands.

SFB story misses problems
1 wish to clear up a few of the points that are innocently misleading or being misinter- preted in the SFB article.
First, Greg Michaud sits on the Student Finance Board, but he is not part of the Appeals Committee. Mr. Michaud states the proportion of* student representation “was poorly adhered to, and student members often were not in- formed of committee meetings.” This statement is completely untrue. Presently there is a four month schedule of the meetings outlining the times and dates of the meetings and the members of the Appeals Committee who are to be present. If a_ student member is unable to attend, his place will be taken by another
Confused but
We would like to commend you on your article about the dead issue of differential fees, which you expounded upon in the last issue of the Gateway. We were most intrigued with your interpretation of Bob Patzwald’s election platform. Yes, Derick baby, you left quite an impres- sion!
Our interest was first grasped when you pointed out to the masses that this mean, cruel person, with nothing but evil in his heart, based his campaign on racist propoganda. We found it incredible that such an unsavory, lewd fellow, of the baser sort, kept this concept hidden in the inner recesses of his mind, until it was pried from him’ by a Gateway interviewer. (Clever people, these Saskatchewanites, eh?)
We applaude you, sir, on your shrewd ability to interpret this policy as racist, rather than economic, It went WHOOSH! right over our heads. No doubt
Bert Hohol was involved in Patzwald’s campaign. We have _ heard - silent
whispering around the hallowed halls of our Faculty that. you have a tendency to twist arguments. But don’t listen,
student. I am certain that if Mr. Michaud had _ checked the minutes he would have found that student members were present for ninety-nine and forty four one-hundredths percent (99 44/ 100%) of the appeals.
Secondly, it is alleged that since the Student Finance Board chooses the membership of the Appeals Committee, ‘The appeals. are being made to the same people who originally rejected.” This statement is as untrue as it is to say any of the Students’ Union Boards’ decisions are made by the Students’ Union Nominating Committee.
Finally, if the Appeals Committee was chosen (stack- ed?) by the Minister of Advanced
not quiet
Derick. (why change now?)
It is our sincere belief that the federal government is in- volved in-this conspiracy to oust foreign students from employ- ment which is rightfully theirs.
Foreign students should have’
priority, since they are from another country. It’s our turn for the welfare. After all, it’s the white thing to do.
We have one small, in- significant little question that we are really hesitant about asking, in reference to the massive sums of money foreign students have bestowed upon us. We could be ignorant and misinformed, like Patzwald, but don’t foreign students pay only a portion of their fees with the rest being subsidized by. Bob and Bert? We're SOOOO confused, Derick, we’re losing sleep over the matter. Please set us straight.
In conclusion, Derick, may we suggest a compromise? Perhaps we should ll get together and ship this veiled threat to a foreign country, like Saskatchewan, where — he belongs.

Explanation unclear
A slight note re: “Support
: explained” (Oct. 24). Ithank Mr.
McMaster for his apology, such as it is, but personally | feel his letter is a wee bit slanted. Council was approached to support the aims of Operation Freedom to have the war measures — act -repealed: Council consented, and was then listed as a sup- porter of five or six other stands which had not been brought to Council. Mr. McMaster
attempts in his letter to make it
look as if these stands were naysayed —-or as if Council was
too pusillanimous to take a™
stand. Not only is this patently untrue, but it begs the issue at
hand — which is the irresponsi- ble act by Operation Freedom of -trying to make Council look like it supported these other stands without ‘having the foresight or fortitude to present these issues. Following this principle Council could wind up supporting stands such as “Keep Niggers back on the plantations” or “Armed insurrection by Wednesday or Bust,” which are (1 hope) totally repugnant to not only Council but almost every student we represent. I think Operation Freedom might well be looking In its own backyard for Freedom From Manipulation, or culpable stupidity in its management.

Bumstead’s barnyard foul

However, Paul Bumstead leaves much to be desired. I believe he should either clean up his act, or be deleted from the Gateway. It is not necessary to use barnyard language to be

Hopefully, Paul will delve —
into his so-called intelligent and
literate mind and produce a column that [ll be proud and . happy to leave around for my family and friends to read. Thus far, his language has been totally offensive and degrading to the benefit of students on campus, prospective students, and anyone else reading the Gateway off campus. V.M. Bet

Education then, from my obser- vation, the appeal procedure would not run as smoothly as it presently does. While - strict guidelines exist the Appeals Committee will bend the rules to equitably evaluate individual cases. Furthermore, if Mr. Hohol was réally listening to students he’d discover the problems of the Student Finance Board do not lie within the appeals procedure but +. rather with 1. age of independence 2. savings requirements 3. remission plan 4. allowances applicants 5. yearly loan maximums. While Mr. Michaud raises some genuine concerns, | feel that he is overemphasizing their significance.

Parkland march Sat..
For twenty months the Parkland workers in Edmonton have been striking for wage parity with other Parkland nur- sing homes in the province. The strikers, mostly women, have been faced with police brutality and harassment, court injunc- tions, and have been refused a collective agreement. Now, Parkland owner Dr. Allard and the provincial government are condoning a blacklist of Parkland strike leaders. Basical- ly, the owners are attempting to break the union.
We, the undersigned, call on all students, staff and faculty of the U of A to march in solidarity with the Parkland workers.

Interview with N US' President Tusyk on Alberta tour |
- by Tom Barrett
Gateway: To begin with, John, what exactly is the National Union of Students?
Tusyk: The National Union of Students, as its name implies, is an association of students right across the country, representing student interests to the federal government and also serving asa reference point and an information center for students. Right now there are over 200,000 students that belong to the National Union of Students and they’re represented in NUS by about 42 different student coast to coast.
Gateway: How are decisions made? Tusyk: NUS policy decisions are made by the members. At the conferences which are held every year the members - that is the student associations whose students have voted to join NUS - send representatives and it is they who decide NUS policies. The membership is also in large measure responsible for im- plementing those decisions.
NUS _ policy
Gateway: What do you believe are the most important issues facing students today?
Tusyk: | think all student represen- tatives and student organizations have identified cutbacks as by and large the major issue facing students in this ‘country today. By cutbacks we are not just referring to the underfunding of universities, colleges, and _ technical institutes, but also deficiencies in stu- dent aid programs, as well as govern- ment ineffectiveness in dealing with the
-unemployment problem. So when we-
talk about cutbacks we’re talking about wide rubric that includes a number-of things that are all tied together by a similar theme of underfunding by both the federal and provincial governments.
Gateway: Yes, that’s the chief issue. Is there anything else you would like to add to that? Tusyk: Well, there are a number of other issues that NUS deals with and that other student organizations deal with. A lot of them are related to cutbacks in one way or another. Housing, which in one sense doesn’t seem to be connected with cutbacks actually has a lot to do with it. For example, Central Housing and Mortgage Corporation chopping off the tunds for student residences and so on. j In terms of NUS work there are a lot of other things that are dealt with that are not strictly political things, like organizing a national student radio conference, or helping people run their student council elections if they have problems with them.
Gateway: ‘What is the relationship between NUS and the Association of _ Student Councils? *: Tusyk: The AOSC is the- national student travel organization, which is expanding to become the national students service organization. Currently the National Union of Students and the Association of Student Councils are in the process of affiliation or merger so that now people cannot join or leave either NUS or AOSC; they must join or leave both of them. People that are _ members of NUS are joining AOSC and
associations from
student associations such as the U of A, which are currently members of AOSC, are being encouraged to join NUS. This could result in a national union that serves all student needs, from lobbying
with the Federal government to ex-_
changing ideas about how to run elections, to providing travel and other services.
Gateway: NUS recently held a con- ference in London, Ontario. What was accomplished, and what.is planned for the immediate future?
Tusyk: A great deal of it had to do with reviewing the work that has been done since the annual conference in May; seeing what progress we had made in implementing our work on the national anti-cutbacks campaign, and also work- ing on technical matters. The conference also analyzed new developments such as the federal government’s recently- announced cutbacks.
We took stock of where we’ve been, reviewed what new things had happen- ed, and set out sights on the balance of the year.
Gateway’: What can students do to produce changes in government policy? Tusyk: They can do lots of things. I
_guess what I'd say right off the bat is that
they can be organized at a national, provincial and local level in a united way. I think that’s the prerequisite to do something about cutbacks. It’s much better for people to be working together, whether it’s ina national or provincial context. That’s the first step.
The second step would involve what kind of strategy we adopt; and I think that student organizations generally, and NUS in particular, have not wedded themself to any particular kind of tactics. It might be appropriate to do some research and present a brief to a cabinet minister or a’ senior bureaucrat. On another occasion it might be appropriate to do a massive lobby of federal MPs. It also might be important to raise issues in the context of a federal election, or to hold a rally in order to involve more students.
At this point in the year, I’d say we're involved mostly in an educative process; educating students, especially those people who weren’t with us last spring; also educating the public about the irreparable damage that is being done to the post-secondary community.
Gateway: Some people believe that it is not necessary to have a_ national organization to deal with student issues, because provincial funding and general policy is most important. How would you answer that?
Tusyk: I'll respond to that in a number of ways. First of all, before | get into the meat of your question, I’ll point out that although educational policies are very important, and provide NUS with its Raison D’etre I'd also indicate that there are other sorts of things that go on too.
First, a nation-wide information exchange is very important. It allows student councillors from community colleges and universities to meet with their colleagues across the country and talk about all sorts of things.
On the subject of educational policy there is a bit of a myth that the

“We don’t see a national student organization as work going on at a local or provincia! level. Hopefully it’s just an extention of what is taking place locally so that people c: n see that certain things they want to see done can best be done ina
national >ntext.”
Federal government doesn’t have any involvement in post-secondary educa- tion. We should instantly rebut and rebuke this view because the federal government has in fact a very large involvement in post-secondary educa- tion. I'll give you a few examples: we have a national student aid plan in this country called the Canada Student Loan plan and the different provincial governments build their own plans around it. Problems like the age of independence, how much your parents have to contribute, are all closely related to the federal policy.
Also, approximately 50% of the funding for post-secondary institutions in Canada comes from the federal government. Recently the government has indicated that they’re attempting to cut back on those funds. People may recall the recent series of cutback announcements made by the federal government. One of these included a 3.5% cut that will have to be negotiated with the provinces. Nonetheless, the federal government has demonstrated the intention of cutting back by 3.5% the funds they make available to the provincial governments.
This year in Alberta they’re con- tributing directly something in the area of 300 million dollars. That’s not including things like student aid or the fact that Central Housing and Mortgate provides funds for student residences. The Department of Indian and Northern Affairs provides money for native students to go to university. Finally, the federal government is the largest source of funding for research, through its various agencies and coun- cils. So there are a few examples of the way the federal government is involved in determining what kind of post- secondary system we have.
Gateway: One issue that appears to have been neglected by most student groups is the problem of student illiteracy. Does NUS have a position on this issue?
Tusyk: We’re concerned about it froma number of points of view. I’m familiar with a number of provinces that have conducted tests and so on and have actually discovered that achievement in math and literature is no worse than it was a number of years ago, and in some cases is actually better.
I think perhaps that I should stress that university is not the best place to make up these skills, if they are indeed lacking. We have to look at. the education system as. a whole, and try to build up an integrated whole.
This leads me nicely into a point I want to make. One of our biggest concerns with the education system is its real lack of planning and objectives about where the system should go. I think things like the disjunction between high school and university is an indica- tion that people aren’t looking at education in a rational way.
Gateway: One final question, John. There will almost certainly be a NUS referendum at the U of A this year. Tell us please why you think students should vote to join the organization: Tusyk: | guess my own feeling is that anywhere decisions are being made that effect students, such as the sort of decisions the federal government are making, students have to be organized and they have to be there to put forward their point of view. I also think it’s important for students to have a flow of information from coast to coast on issues other than cutbacks and housing, so we have well-rounded — student organizations. The whole purpose of having a national organization is really to help local student associations do-their work with students. We don’t see a national student organization as work going on at a local ora provincial level. Hopefully it’s just an extension of what is taking place locally, so that people can see that certain things that they want to see done can best be done in a national context.

The Good Brothers Concert review by D.C. Washington
Strike a giant blow for bluegrass. There’s hope for Alberta yet, especially with the likes ‘of the Good Brothers performing their stuff. Their set proved to be -better than good, and the audience at the Jubilee Auditorium last Sunday night rose to the occasion, calling them back twice for encores.
The Good Brothers have been around for a long time, though not in their present, well-rounded form. The group now consists o1 seven members, and plays everything from country to rock and roll, adding their own special bluegrass flavor to each number. The well- planned set combined traditional favorites such as “The Battle of New Orleans”, “Duelling Banjos” and “Orange Blossom Special” with original compositions, both old and new. ;
‘ The core of the group consists of brothers Larry, Bruce and Brian Good, with Larry on acoustic guitar holding center stage. He and twin brother Bruce established a great rapport with the audience early in the set, which led to better appreciation on both sides as the evening wore on . The size of the band got in the way only once when three guitars managed to drown out Larry’s voice. He also got a little hoarse towards
the end, but much to his credit hung on to join his’
brothers in ana capella rendition of “Amazing Grass”, which highlighted their fine vocal harmonizing prevalent throughout the set.
The Good Brothers ended their cross-country tour here in Edmonton, only to join fellow Canadian Gord Lightfoot in Seattle for a seven city tour in the States.
Opening the show was the Canadian Ronny Abramson. She had a difficult job playing the lead set to an audience hyped up for foot-stomping with the Good Brothers. Her original material, however, along with her strong, clear voice enabled her to hold her own, though unfortunately the lead guitarist was not up to par. It was also unfortunate that a portion of the
| audience chose to sit out her set, which was definitely
worth hearing.

The Cooper Brothers Concert review by Sidney Melbourne
The Cooper Brothers played to a small but receptive audience in SUB Theatre last Friday night. All of the Brothers are good musicians, with the probable exception of their “lead” vocalist, Donny Bregg. Bregg was real spiffy in knee-high leather boots, tight jeans, and billowy white shirt—undone of course. Musically, he was decidedly unproductive. In fact, he

was rather a flaw in their otherwise smooth sound.
The band played a good, relaxed form of country rock interspersed with a few monstrous soft rock duds. The two highlights of their performance were their easy sixpoint vocal harmonies and their pedal steel guitarist, Terry King. Replete with mirrored sunglasses and huge grin, this man dazzled the multitudes with a couple of infectious howling solos. The encore was particularly noteworthy in this respect, although even then he was difficult to hear over the rest of the band— he really should have been louder.
However, this does not mean that the rest of the band was merely vestigial. Happy Darryl (Alquire) introduced most of the numbers, contributed a good proportion of the vocals and played a mean tam- bourine as well as an inaudible acoustic guitar. Dick Cooper energetically and skillfully handled a large number of guitar solos and periodically engaged in a bit of light sparring with Terry King. Brian Cooper vocalized and held together the group’s rhythm as he wandered around the stage with his insistent bass guitar. The shy man on keyboards added one or two short solos and even did a short stretch on bass while Brian did something else. The group’s drummer’ per- cussionist was also.a definite asset to the band.

Faculty members’ exhibition begins today
An exhibition of works by faculty members from the Department of Art and Design, U of A will open Friday, Oct. 27 at 7:30 pm at the Students’ Union Art Gallery. Works by approximately 30 faculty members and sessional instructors. working in all media will be represented inthe exhibition. The exhibition continues until November 10, 1978. Gallery hours are 11:00 am- 5:00 pm Monday-Friday and 1:00- pm-5:00 pm Saturday and Sunday.
Stravinsky comes to town
Ragtime, Ripoffs and Russian folk tales. An unlikely trio, you might say, and you would be right, if they weren’t going to be found together on stage in Convocation Hall on Friday, October 27, and Sunday, October 29. And much, much more!
Ragtime? When Stravinsky wrote L’Histoire du Soldat, or The Soldier’s Tale, in Switzerland in 1918, he had just been given a sheaf of ragtime piano pieces
by a friend, and was so taken by the new style that he ~
included a piece called Ragtime in the work. Not to mention a waltz and a Latin American tango, all filtered through, and transformed by, his distinctive and inimitable musical personality.
Ripoffs? How would you feel if the Devil took
- your fiddle and wouldn’t give it back? Even after you
had promised to kiss the Princess and make her well? Russian folk tales? That’s where it all begins. Stravinsky drew on Afanasiev’s collection of tales from
the Russo-Turkish wars for the plot of his musical
melodrama, altered it to make it more appealing to an international audience, and ended up with a miniature version of the Faust legend.
This is a rare opportunity to hear a work that, though important in the history of twentieth-century music, is seldom performed because of the unusual forces required for its. performance. Assisting musicians drawn from the staff and friends of the Department of Music will be three members of the Department of Drama, Gloria Perka, Kevin Burns, ~ and Bill Meilen, who will be heard as the Narrator, the Soldier and the Devil respectively. The University of Alberta String Quartet will also be present, performing a string quartet by Canadian composer Harry Somers.
The atmosphere is informal, admission is free, and it may be the last chance to hear The Soldier's Tale for a long time. Both concerts begin at-8:00 p.m., in Convocation Hall. :

Cano— Eclipse Record review by Gordon Turtle
Among the few progressive bands currently recording in Canada, (such as Maneige, Beau Dommage and Harmonium), the Franco-Ontario band Cano has firmly established itself as the most important with the release of their third album, Eclipse.
Cano is an acronym for Le Cooperative des Artistes du Nouvel-Ontario, and that is exactly what they are. There are seven musicians in the band, but their line-up also includes their technical staff. producer and manager; -all of whom receive equal billing with the musicians. Cano is a true collective of talent, artistry and perseverance. Operating out of Sudbury, the Cano group has had one Canadian tour and another is planned tor the upcoming winter months.
The band’s last album, Au Nord de Notre Vie isa simply brilliant work that brought Cano some much- deserved recognition from the Canadian media and record-buyers. Immaculately produced, the album combined folk, jazz and rock with the skill and grace of
A breath of air
By Michaleen Marte
Appearing now at the Edmonton Public Library Foyer Gallery is an exhibit of the works of former student Cecile Szaszkiewicz. On the whole the exhibit is what Cecile describes as “a breath of fresh air”, the product of a phase of creative release.
The theme is color and space; the objective is the disciplined use of these properties in the two- dimensional form. All paintings in the show convey a complex range of emotions by simple composition. The liberal use of color marks the period of May to August 1977 in Szaszkiewicz’s recent work.
Although born in Montreal, Cecile long ago adopted Alberta as her new environment. She has studied with the University of Alberta Department of Extension and Fine Arts and at the Banff School of Fine Arts. Her teaching experience has been through
' the Edmonton Art Gallery, the Visual Arts Branch in
Edmonton and in various communitites withing the province. She has been exhibiting since 1975, her most recent exhibitions include four groups shows in 1977, three at the university and one at the Centennial Library and the one-man show entitled Juliani’s Folly, in 1978 at the Citadel Rice Gallery.
In contrast to Juliani’s Folly, the period shown at the Library exhibit is non-figurative. Instead of the symbol of the winged-horse Pegasus, color becomes the tool of expression. All works are in acrylic with the pigment applied in various ways to the unstretched canvas. Truly, the means by which the works were created is significant to the final product.
Cecile defines the canvases asa series of steps of an exploratory phase,Out of 35 paintings, 20 are displayed to trace the development of the phase.
“Enigmatic First”, as the title suggests, is the initial work in the period. It is more grey in color and lacking the depth of later paintings. The works are composed in earthy, golden tones of ochre and yellow and the cooler, more subtle uses of green, blue and rose shades. Perhaps the most successful and appealing work is the larger canvas: “Color and Space” which involves a serene palette and skillfully offers the exhibition its name.
Painting, in the words of Cecile, is color. Her exhibition can stand as a recent return to the examination of the artist, where often the adjective of blue or gold becomes the statement of tranquility and pure contentment. The exhibition will remain on display until October 31.
true craftsmanship, and is a beautiful, harmonious musical statement on Canada, its land, and its people.
Eclipse, the group’s newest on A&M Records, is another excellent album, and dispels the fears many Cano fans. had that this LP would be more commercially-oriented, (i.e.—in English) in order to reach a larger audience. If anything, Eclipse is less accessible than the two previous albums, and contains virtually no material that could even approach top- forty status. Commerciality is replaced by sincerity, which is no surprise since Eclipse is both inspired by and dominated by the former leader of Cano, Andre Paiement.
Paiement died soon after the rélease of Au Nord de Notre Vie and his death almost led to the demise of the band. His death came on the eve of the first day of their Canadian tour, yet Cano managed to make the trip despite this enormous setback.. :
Many of the lyrics on Eclipse were written by Paiement, as well as the music to three of the songs. He was a superb songwriter, and his music carries a real strength that is passionately captured by the members
of Cano. The band’s lead singer (and Paiement’s —
sister), Rachel Paiement, is a stunning singer whose range, depth and tone of voice perfectly handle her brother’s lyrics. Even in translation, the intent of Paiement’s poetry is apparent, such as in “Bienvenue 1984”:
The Americans and the ancient Romans
Are distant second cousins
And decadence is upon us
Just like two thousand years ago
Only the Pope can save us.
One fine morning we'd better pack up and leave —
For a place where riches are few We could practise begging in the streets And get used to starving too.
Welcome 1984.
Paiement’s lyrics are cynical and bitter, yet the soaring voice of Rachel coupled with the tight and beautiful music given them by the group mingle a touch of hope and despair, and a glimpse of light in the darkness.
Like some of the greatest bands in contemporary music, Cano is a mixture of despondency and hopefulness, and the somber tone of many of their songs is periodically offset by cheerful and just plain fun tunes. Both modes of thematic content are achieved largely through the clever and consistent interplay between the two lead instruments, Wasyl Kohut’s electric violin’and Dave Burt’s electric guitar. On Eclipse, piano and synthesizerare used more than on previous albums, bringing to the basic structure of each song a backing of great depth and harmony. All of the musicians in Cano are precise artists, who seemingly strive for perfection and thrive on heighten- ing the effects of their arrangements. At no time are their songs cluttered, but rather, they are harmonious andthoroughly melodic, touching on folk, rock, and jazz concepts.
The voice of Rachel Paiement is the force that brings together the haunting lyrics of Cano with the
exquisite music. It is hard to describe the emotive ,

energy of Paiement’s vocals and the way she steals our breath: she possesses the strength of Linda Ronstadt, the grace of Sandy Denny, the clarity of Annie Haslam, and the occasional harshness of Grace Slick. Yet, she sounds like none.of these singers, and is a completely unique voice, not caught up in imitating others or attempting to compete in de facto media talent contests. Indeed, it is Rachel Paiement who is largely responsible for carrying the group farand away above the work of comparable bands.
If Rachel Paiement read this review, though, she would probably disapprove because a major task of Cano is to project its communal spirit, and. prove how this spirit is the predominant force in their music. But by singling out Paiement, the rest of Cano is certainly not being belittled. If and when Cano is noticed by large portions of the public, it will be because of their haunting melodies and their creative, impeccably- produced arrangements. And it will also be because of the spirit of Andre Paiement, which permeates all of Cano’s material.
Many people seem afraid of French-Canadian music, and are somewhat put off by vocals in another language. Even though Eclipse has a couple of songs in English, Cano’s element is French, and prospective listeners should attempt to adjust. If any band active in Canada is worthy of great support and praise, it is definitely Cano.

Charles dares to say
Romanian Orchestra accessible
Concert review by John Charles
A highly enjoyable concert was given by the Romanian State Orchestra Monday evening at Convocation Hall. A largely familiar program,
conducted by Ion Baciu, was made more piquant by .
the inclusion of Constantin Silvestri’s Three Pieces for Strings. This was an attractive and accessible work, employing lively gypsy dance rhythms which alter- nated with haunting solos by viola and cello.
It’s tempting to compare this orchestra with the ESO, but difficult, since we usually hear the latter in Jubilee. Con Hall has much better acoustics for music, but there are problems, too, unless one. sits in the balcony. The tympani, in the Shubert Eighth, for. example, sounded dull because the stage curtain was directly behind, and the brass’ presence was com- promised for the same reason. Although this touring orchestra had even less strings than the ‘ESO, they sounded full and generally polished (as does the ESO in Con Hall). They were also thoroughly familiar with their program, but didn’t sound played out.
The Beethoven Vioin Concerto, Op. 61, was the first of two major works. Daniel Podlovski, a young Romanian artist, was soloist. His conception of the work is noble and serene, if a bit stolid, and he played beautifully. There were passages to which he might have brought more point, emphasized by the powerful- ly dramatic way he played the Kreisler cadenzas in the
two outer movements. But technically he was superb, the only drawback being a lack of agreement on tempi _ by soloist and conductor (Podlovski favoring a slightly broader one), which was evident on several occasions. But by and large it was a notable experience.
' The orchestra seemed most comfortable in the rondo finale but gave fine support throughout.
The Schubert Eighth (the so-called “Unfinished”) followed intermission. This was an excellent reading, with real urgency in the big moments. Lower strings’ intonation seemed imperfect while playing the Big Tune, and in one tutti section the brass sounded like a blaring village band. But the last movement’s wind solos were expressively phrased, and Baciu shaped the work with greater conviction and intensity than the Beethoven
Rossini’s “Overture To William Tell; which ended the program, was both precise and exciting, with a — notable cello opening and storm evocation, and lovely woodwind playing. cx
Of two encores, the first was Enesco’s First Romanian -Rhapsody, which—dare one say?—was performed idiomatically and with gusto, the strings sounding twice as numerous. They can probably play — this in their sleep. A final encore, of early Romanian folk pieces, was filled with shouted phrases, stamping seat, telluric brass and drums and brought the house

the fight by the 63 employees who first walked out in March 1977 to improve their wages and working conditions, but the basic right to organize and deal with an employer from a position of strength and equality.
Because these principles hit at the fundamental rights of all workers, the strike has attracted the attention of the labor community across the province and the nation.
For the nursing attendants, maintenance workers,and other support staff at the northwest Edmonton nur- sing home, their dispute with Parkland Nursing Home Ltd. and a major shareholder (Allarco Ltd. of whom the principal shareholder is Dr. Charles Allard) has escalated into a major confrontation that has involved the courts and the provincial government.
Parkland operates 11 nursing homes in various locations in Alberta, making it one of the major providers of privately-run institutions for the elderly in the province.
Four of its homes, including a second Edmonton facility on the south side, have the staff represented by the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE). At the company’s now strike- bound nursing home, represented by Local 41, management is digging in its heels and not budging from its present position of no negotiations with the union. In the 20 months since the strike began the other organized Parkland homes have signed _ collective agreements with CUPE but in north Edmonton the owners are bound and determined to keep its position un-
labor.
At stake in this dispute is not only
Twenty months of frustration with a belligerent employer and a stubborn provin- cial government will culminate tomorrow on the steps of the legislature as trade unionists and concerned citizens march to bring a just conclusion to the Parkland nursing home
The demonstrators will be coming from all corners of the province to tell the Lougheed cabinet that it must move to end the bitter strike that has seen one of the province’s most powerful corporations run roughshod over the efforts of workers to gain a first contract.
The 63 ‘Parkland employees ob- tained union certification in June 1976. Gateway discussed working conditions in the home with a number. of the employees and was told of understaffing and overwork.
In- pre-strike days seven to nine nursing assistants, most without any appropriate training or _ in-service education, looked after 120 patients: The morning shift required the residents
to be bathed, dressed, fed and given |
medication. By afternoon the comple- ment of attendants dropped to three or four although patient requirements and general duties in the building did not usually diminish.
Haddie Jahner, a worker at ‘the home and president of Local 41, told Gateway there was little time to look after anything but the very basic needs of the residents.
Ms. Jahner added that when the home employed 13 attendants on the morning shift, staff had an opportunity to talk with the patients and make some attempts at rehabilitating a few of the

With the workers signed up by CUPE, the newly organized nursing home employees looked foward to winning .their first contract with the company. One of their objectives was to raise their base rate pay of $3 an hour to equal the salaries received by their counterparts in other Parkland facilities. The pay differential with the other CUPE organized homes in 1976 ranged from 35 cents an hour to one dollar.
The first negotiation session in October 1976 began with some op- timism. Company officials told the union it would like to see the 63
‘ employees operate under a contract
similar to other organized homes in the Parkland chain. The blush of hope that began the opening contract talks and saw both sides agree to issues affecting seniority and job security soon faded; the following month the company’s president exploded in anger and termed the wage demands “outrageous.” The union’s negotiators were hustled from

while mouths were moved little was said by company negotiators. Through the early months of the winter of 1977 Taylor could only tell the union that Parkland was refusing to make any counter offer. The decision to opt for strike action to force the company to negotiate seriously and satisfactorily was taken in February and following a few more meetings with the conciliator, workers walked off the job one minute after midnight, Friday, March 18, 1977.
The move to cease all labors brought the company back to the bargaining table. Their new offer came close to the union’s wage demands but Parkland introduced two provisions that would prove to be major stumblir blocks to a realistic and just settlement. The company’s wage offer was made with the proviso that organized Parkland employees at homes in Lethbridge, Calgary and Fort Macleod restrict their pay demands for the upcoming contract to a 3.8 per cent increase. The company’s other condi- tion for settlement proved to be the union’s breaking point. Parkland demanded that two striking workers not be allowed to return to work.

The long struggle to ensure equitable wages and union security is important in itself, but the struggle at this nursing home has taken on added importance because of the powerful
interests that lie behind the Parkland |
company. : Parkland Nursing Home Ltd.’s oat prominent shareholder, with 40% the stock, is Allarco Developments Ltd. whose driving force is Edmonto- nian Dr. Charles Allard. The litany of businesses owned and controlled by this man includes’ restaurants, . car dealerships, financial institutions, mobile homes and real estate.
The 58-year-old retired chief sur- geon (who practised at the Edmonton General Hospital) has amassed an empire that can claim assets of $100 million and sales that hovered in the $80 million range in 1976. Allard dabbles in such enterprises as printing companies, a television station, construction outfits and a methanol plant in Medicine Hat.
| But Allard, in ‘an interview with “maclean’s magazine two years ago, commented that his commercial in- terests were of secondary importance.
“I always felt what I did in the hospital was the important thing,” he said. Allard tries to leave the impression that his business efforts are of secondary importance, preferring to spend time with such innocuous creatures as his 1,000 head of cattle in Leduc. Although he seems to take a relaxed and off-hand approach to his many enterprises (“my companies are like children ... some go astray”) corporate insiders — told Maclean’s that Allard makes all the crucial decisions regarding the cor- porations’ well being.
The good -doctor, with a healthy 40% of Parkland’s .shares, has
aracteristically avoided open involve- ment in the nursing home dispute. But it is clear that his intervention could end the strike. On the other hand, there are those who feel Allard’s presence may, in fact, be prolonging the conflict.
Allarco’s ~ herculean might and its exercise upon a band of nursing assistants and laundry workers has kindled considerable bad feeling. The mistrust of Parkland’s owners and negotiators became more intense when, in April 1977, the nursing home’s lawyers applied for an injunction to limit the number of picketers outside the home. Parkland had _ continued operations once the strike began by importing outside workers and at one point was ordered by the Department of Labor to end its use of under-age children. The injunction would make it easier for the home to continue @oerations and would be a serious body
fow to union efforts to keep the pressure on the company.
Alberta Supreme Court Justice David McDonald (who now heads the
economic -
Royal Commission Inquiry into the RCMP) granted the company its desired injunction on April 30, 1977.
The court order limited the number of picketers to two persons to be stationed at the back of the home and four to be placed across the street. In addition, Justice McDonald prohibited picketers form “screaming, swearing, singing or using insulting or obscene language.”
The combination of the company’s formidable economic might and the court’s favorable ruling to Parkland -emphasized the obstacles facing a settlement favorable to the workers.
CUPE national representative Bill Petrie emphasized the effect the Mc- Donald injunction had on the workers. “When the strike began we respected the courts and the police, but when the injunction was approved we took a serious second look.” j
Six weeks after the strike began, CUPE Local 41 could only place a half dozen picketers near the Parkland home. Management continued the operation of the home without union labor but was, at first, forced to transfer 20 patients to the Charles Camsell Hospital. Reports in the Edmonton Journal quoted the relatives of Parkland residents describing con- ditions.in the home as unclean and patient care as inadequate.
Walter Radulski, whose mother stayed in the home while the strike continued, complaiend to the Journal that on occasion he found his mother soaked in urine, was fed an improper diet and generally neglected. The union has received at least five written com- plaints about conditions in the home and NDP leader Grant Notley brought up an additional four incidents which indicated some neglect on the part of the nursing home. The government, however, has taken the attitude that conditions remain acceptable in the Parkland facility. :
The provincial: government’s role in this dispute is crucially important. Parkland receives a government subsidy amounting to $2200 a day. Despite urgings to use this lever to cause the company to negotiate, the Tories have avoided using any significant pressure to bring the dispute to an end.
A request by CUPE to prosecute Parkland for failure to negotiate in good faith was at first greeted enthusiastically by the Department of Labor but was shortly abandoned.
A third and effective alternative, that would see the government put the home under trusteeship, and thus initiate meaningful talks between the government as employer and CUPE as the employees’ representative apparent- ly offends the Tory sense of free enterprise. It remains an unexplained option.
of the Parkland workers.
Further attempts to mediate the dispute continued in November 1977 when Erik Lefsrud, a city lawyer, was appointed to bring the parties together. After a few meetings: Lefsrud told
Canadian Press in a written statement ~
that he had to admit his efforts were without purpose.
Parkland’s lawyer, Brian Thomp- son, had told Lefsrud that he refused to negotiate because of certain incidents on the picket line. The union, in turn, agreed to withdraw the picketers while negotiations continued but this did not find favor with Mr. Thompson.
The company, according to Lef- srud, “took the position that it was not prepared, nor was there any reason why the employer should, negotiate further with the union ... at that point it became obvious to. me that, unless a change could be created in the attitude of the

rather, it is Parkland’s refusal to allow certain unionists to return to work. The Alberta Federation of Labor filed a brief with Crawford and members of the cabinet’s labor relations committee in September asking for a public inquiry. But the call to examine the many complaints about patient care, . to rethink the considerable public dollars that have been spent in grants to the home and other expenses during the strike for police, court actions, and the work of government employees, went unheeded. Crawford responded to the AFL request by saying he didn’t want to establish “a precedent” in this case. Through the long dispute the strikers have become more determined in their effort to win a first contract and gain a foothold for their chosen union.. Organized labor acrossthe province and the country has shown its support by
Parkland worker Haddie Jahner. The central issue in the 20 month strike has become the company’s blacklist for 23 people. Meanwhile the provincial government continues to fund Parkland at $2000 per day.
employer, my function as a mediator would be ineffective and futile.”
The latest offer form Labor Minister Neil Crawford would see some of the strikers return to work and a portion of the non-union staff remain on the job. This initiative, following three months of discussion and effort by the labor department, met with thumbs down from both parties. The Crawford deal does not offer any union security, and in effect recognizes the company’s blacklist (now up to 23 workers) which has become the central issue in this confrontation. The company’s wage offer is no longer the sticking point;

joining concerned citizens to march with the Parkland strikers on the picket line. Last winter, during its annual conven- tion, the AFL posted over 400 delegates on the line and although many faced court action for this step, the support movement for the Parkland strikers continues to grow. More than $150,000 has been pledged from all over the country to keep this strike alive. Tomorrow, marchers from across the province will join together to tell the provincial government enough is enough — it’s time to resolve the Parkland strike and end the provincial shame.

Midterm reprieve —
Now that we are in the thick of ‘midterm cram week’ why not visit the West Coast.and Mon- treal at the same time. It’s here in a short jaunt to the Jubilee Auditorium!
The Edmonton Art Club is holding its 57th annual Fall Art Show in the lower floor of the Jubilee. The show runs from Oct. 15 to Nov. 3, 10 a.m. to 10.p.m., Sunday to Saturday. On display are paintings in oils, acrylics, and watercolors as well as some pen and ink drawings.
The paintings reveal the skill and imagination of the club’s artists and for a little while the opportunity exists to. look through their eyes.
Each painting creates a different mood and impression. The viewer is tossed and turned and swayed with each new pain- ting.
It’s an enjoyable and plea- sant break from studying for half an hour (and it’s not —as dangerous as drinking that poison from the coffee machines!) cough, cough.

Now is the time of year for hockey fans to rejoice. Football is fast fading from the limelight and will soon, if not immediately, be replaced by intercollegiate hockey. The football Bears close out their regular season schedule in Vancouver this Saturday when they meet the UBC Thunderbirds. On the same day the U of A hockey squad will be opening their home exhibiton schedule with a game against the Tuscon Rustlers of the Pacific Coast League.
The football squad’s future hangs in the balance. Tied with UBC and U of C (all 5-2) for first place in the WIFL, Jim Donlevy’s Bears must defeat or tie the Thunderbirds to qualify for post-season play..The T’birds have not lost at ‘home this year, a fact that serves to demonstrate the magnitude of the task before the Bears.
Regardless of the outcome of Saturday’s game in Vancouver, the WIFL play-off game will be played in Calgary on November fourth. This prediction is based on the fact that U of C plays U of S, in Calgary this weekend, to
close out their respective seasons. Calgary has not lost at home this year and, judging from their performance here last weekend, they will win next Saturday.
U of C was ecstatic after last weekend’s victory over the Bears (naturally enough). More importantly, they remain perfectly healthy: quarterback Darrell Moir and linebacker Rick Shulte, after extended periods of disability, have
- returned to anchor the Dinosaurs.
: Conversely , the Bears do not appear to be riding high. Last weekend’s loss to Calgary halted a U of A four game winning streak, dealing a serious blow to the Bears’ pride (having now been humiliated by U of C in three consecutive
~ games, including the 1977 season).
Adding injury to insult, Bears’ starting defensive end Bill Hole is out for the season, having incurred knee ligament damage on Saturday.
Just out of interest (because it is unlikely to become a reality), there may be an intercollegiate football play-off
game played on this campus this season. One possibility
would be if both Bears and Saskatchewan win this weekend, giving U of A first place. The second possibility would simply involve the Bears championing over a WIFL play-off opponent, earning the right to host the Western Bowl, November 11.

Soccer Bears back in title race
by John Younie
It may not have been one of the classic soccer games of. all time, but the final outcome was all that mattered.
Playing as though there was no tomorrow, the U of A Golden Bears soccer squad hammered
._the U of C Dinosaurs 3-1, in the
Bears final home game. of the Canada West University Athletic Association (CWUAA) season, Tuesday afternoon at Varsity stadium.
Graham Fishburne, held off the scoresheet in his previous game, scored twice (nine this season) to lead the Bears. Mark Olivieri scored the winning goal ona picture play late in the game, on a nice setup from Pat John- son.
Olivieri did not start’ the game because of a deep muscle pull in his thigh, but coach Peter Esdale inserted him into the game into the second half. “We need his (Olivieri’s) speed in the middle,” Esdale said.
Alberta went ahead 1-0 at the 18 minute mark when Sean McGuinness elbowed a Calgary defender off the ball, and passed it to Graham Fishburne, who volleyed the ball-into the net. After the goal the Bears began to take over the play, and the Dino’s. started to reel. The pressure brought numerous scor- ing opportunities, but no goals. One Bear who could not find the range was Rookie Frank Bruni. Frank had at least three scoring chances, but could not score.
The second half began auspiciously for the Bears. Early
‘in the half, Calgary forward Joe
Bagoky sent a pass across the front of the Bears net, which went in off Alberta’s Ralph Spoetter. Bears sagged visibly after the goal. Coach Esdale explained the letdown. “A lot of our guys are rookies,” he said, “and they don’t have that mental

The game seemed destined for a tie-ending, until Pat John- son made a good move to keep the ball in play on ‘the left sideline. Johnson passed the ball up the left-wing t6 striker Mark Olivieri. Mark was 25 yards from the goal on the left side when he let a long shot go to the farcorner

The men’s intramural basketball league will show some innovations in- the. administra- tion of standings, as coordinator Brad Pierce attempts to liven the atmosphere with some new incentives. Can anyone out there ‘dunk’ a ball? -If so, pull it off during a game, have the referee witness it on the gamesheet, and if you are the first ‘dunker’ of the season, you can collect a prize..
The basketball league did not commence play on Oct. 26th as planned, but will start off either on Nov. 2 or on Nov. 6th.
’ There is so. much court time that it’s ironic that we are fanatical at the game of hockey. All basketball teams will have practice time early in the season, and court facilities. will be available later in the schedule for the playing of cancelled games, and for additional, pre-play-off practice.
Participation will be measured relative to a unit’s maximum possible aggregate turn-out (ie: divided by 15 times the number of games), as well as to the unit’s membership.
One very appealling aspect of the basketball schedule is that games are always played on Tuesdays and Thursdays. If teams are unavailable for play on specific days they should notify
the office shortly, in hopes of a rescheduling.
Basketball golf and free- throw is taking place on Tuesday Oct. 31st and on Thursday, Nov. 2nd. Contestants can stroll in at their leisure, between 7:30 and 10:30, and participate.

Fishburne finished off the scoring four minutes later with a close-in shot, after a fine set-up from Bill McConkey.

Rugby Bears’ 1978 season in retrospect
by Robin Wortman
The University of Alberta Golden Bear rugby team capped a very successful season this year by defeating the San Diego Aztecs 12 to 9 in California during international exhibition play. The victorious Bears returned from the U.S. on Oct. 14,
The regular season saw the.
undefeated Golden Bears decisively secure a play-off spot in the provincial sudden death finals held in Calgary on Sept. 30th. A record of 10 wins and 2 ties made the defending 1977 Second Division Champions’ narrow 6 to 3 loss to the Calgary Irish for first place an unex- pected upset. The award for the most sportsman-like play during the regular season was presented to the Bears for the second year in a row. :
The team fared well in international contests—winning two out of three games. During the annual Rugby Festival at Ellerslie in May the Rugby Bears blanked the San Diego Aztecs 9 to 0. This humiliating defeat resulted in an invitation for a return match in San Diego. The Bears later lost to the University of Colorado, who ultimately won the cherished Jones cup.
The Bears’ strength is in their excellent conditioning, endurance and imaginative play- ing style says pre-season coach and trainer Tony Bauer who is credited with developing the
’ team in the early stages. The
team, led by playing coach and captain Greg Conroy, has proven themselves to be a for- midable force in the Edmonton Rugby Union.
Rick (Dave Cutler) Hallam kicked his way to becoming the leading point scorer for the Bears. In fact, his point tally amounts to half of the total team effort. His absence next season coupled with the departure of Gary Gibson, a valuable player in the full-back slot, will be a blow to the offensive power of the Bears. However, newly elected President of the club Bill Ruzycki, says he is confident that the team has the depth and versatility required to build a
First preseason victory
Bears swamp Camrose
by Shaune Impey
The Golden Bears hockey team picked up their first preseason victory as_ they swamped the Camrose Lutheran College Vikings 15-3 in Camrose Tuesday night.
Veteran Mike Broadfoot was the big gun for the Bears scoring four times. Barrie Staf- ford had three goals with rookies Rob. Daum and Wayne Grotski tallying twice. Dave Breakwell, Bruce Rolin, Randy Gregg,. and Darrell Zaparniuk each notched a single goal for the Bears.
Camrose, who play in the Alberta Colleges Athletic Con- ference, were outshot 51-14 by the Bears.
Next action for the Bears is Friday night when they travel to Red Deer for an exhibition match against the Tuscon Rustlers of the Pacific Coast League. Tuscon will be in town Saturday for a return match at Varsity Rink. Gametime on Saturday is 8:00 p.m.

Tenacity is the keyword in a rugby players vocabulary as: the Golden Bears prove with their style of play.
strong line for next season; “when vou are a winning team it is easier to make changes and attract new players.”
When Rob Green, im- mediate past-president, was ask- ed what the most satisfying part
of the season was, he replied, “It is definitely the rapport we have established with the other teams during International exhibition games. Rugby has a very vital social aspect to it that makes it a great sport to be involved in.”
First game Saturday
Hockey Pandas’ roster
by Deb Rye
The 1978-79 version of the U of A Panda Hockey team has been selected. After the final paring, the club looks much the same as last year’s squad with the exception of three rookies and the loss of one returning player.
Back from the previous season is last year’s captain, Yolande Joly, whose fine defen- sive work will be relied on again. Other leaders back are ‘Lois Walline (a top scorer at center), speedy winger Sheila White and
feisty right winger Caroline Heslop.. Rounding out the defense are veterans Holly
Meyer, Sharon Spring and Judy Hansen, all of whom are ex- pected to give solid perfor- mances this year.
Taking on the dual respon- sibilities of club president and playing member is Shelley Noton. Other veterans returning are Lorrie Judin at right wing, Deb Rye at left and, after a year’s
absence, Nancy Speer.
Second year players are Sue Knox, Paula Ryerson, Chris Mack and the team’s only goalie this year, Leanne Eckholm.
The rookies in camp this year were a hot bunch and the added speed and skill of Yukoner Joanne Hutsul with Gail Depaoli and Mary Kostashuk will be a definite boost to the club.
Coaching again. after a
year’s absense is John Koslowski, with Jacque Couillard: taking on _ the
assistant’s responsibilities. The club’s first test will come with an exhibition game at Crestwood Arena on Saturday the 28th at - 6:15 pm against the Gee Bees. *
