Quiet crowd gets Byrnes By X O l T PllTENDRIGH

When most of the louder Van- couver crowds were miles away in Seattle enjoying the Who concert, a quieter crowd took in an evening of solo blues performed by Jim Byrnes at Trimbles on Tenth Avenue.

Byrnes, a well known rhythm and blues artist, performed without his band, to a small crowd at the coffee house Oct . 20 and 21. The solo performance by Byrnes was different from the one he usually gives. He mainly played blues and seemed to keep away from his recorded material like You Don't Know or Hands of Time (both from his album, Burning) and he seemed to be having a lot of fun doing renditions of classic blues songs like Robert Johnson's Walkin Blues, Sweet Home Chicago, Willie Dix- on's Little Red Rooster or Louis Armstrong's Bad Boy, while demonstrating his talent on electric slide guitar and keeping a steady rhythm.

In the second set of the Thursday night show, however, Byrnes did receive some accompaniment from members of Trimble's house band, the Acousticats (a folk duo), on bass and rhythm guitars. A drum- mer and a harmonica player were also added to form a tight blues quintet that enabled Byrnes to be f r ee r a t p l ay ing t he l ead , demonstrating his uniqueness as an artist. Vancouver is fortunate to have such talent, as were the people in Trimbles who took in the two shows.

I Tarot cards have been a pervasive part of

our culture since (and this is a point of con- tention among occult historians) the fifteenth century. Led Zeppelin used the trump major card, the hermit, for the cover design of Zep- pelin IV, the diabolic Stairway to Heaven album. James Bond consulted the tarot in Thunderball. Roger Zelazney based a nine- book fantasy series on the oracular cards. William Butler Yeats used Tarot imagery in his mystical poetry.

Of course, the cards are so laced with symbols from every mythology our culture spr- ings from; it’s no wonder they’re used as all encompassing images by artists.

Take the Magician, the first card in the set of 78, for example: All fairy tales, from the Brothers G r i m to Japanese teaching fables, have magicians. He has the appearance of the Greek god Apollo,,according to a guide to the cards. He also has the horizontal eight over his head, the Christian symbol of the Holy Spirit. Around his waist is the serpent linked mouth to tail, the Nordic image of in- finity. On the table beside him is the pen- tagram, which is drawn both for the evocation of white magic in the Hebraic magic of the Kabala, and for the calling of demons in satanic magic. The magician is knee deep in roses and lilies, medieval symbols of the unity of spirit and flesh. The list goes on and on.

The cards are a quintuple threat. They go for the collective memory, the spiritus mundi, of the individuals who try to read them. They reek of power and mystery.

Court de Geblin, a French occultist of the late eighteenth century, insisted that the cards came originally from Egypt, and had been used by the Pharoah’s seers to plumb the divine mysteries. They had been hopeless- ly bastardized by Christian barbarians, he said.

But this rumour was emphatically denied 100 years later by Eliphas Levis, scholar and historian of magic, cult figure, and all around wizard. He traced the cards’ origin to the wisdom of the Hebrew mages, while others said they came from the astrologists of the ancient Chinese emperors

PACE SWORDS .]

BY KELLEY JO BURKE

Regardless, the first cards to in any way resemble modern Tarot appeared in fifteenth century Italy. Occultists seem to prefer to leave the cards’ beginnings mysterious.

They agree on one thing, though they are not to be conf’used with plain old, beer and poker chip cards. In the lower trump or arcana, there is a four suit division, as with their plebian cousins; but they are sets of 14, not 13.

The other major difference is the presence of the Trump Major, the cards of the Veil.

The 22 cards are not a suit, but single representations of the most basic magical figures: the Magician, the Fool, Death, the Lovers, the Hermit, and the Hanged Man. Modern .spiritualist Arthur Waite insists - supported by the works of Levis - that there are “elements of the Divine Immanence in the Trumps Major.”

Arthur says it is only in the reading of the higher arcana that the Tarot transcends vulgar fortune-telling, entering the realm of comnlmication with the spiritual actuality, behir-.; I!,.: . c ’ l :he dscep;ile Ishy:,ical

any simple Tarot key leaves you only more confused, to try laying your hands on the: card in question. If you’re at all adept, the clear meaning of the card’s presence in the fortune should sing cut to your soul. it’s kind of like direct dialing.

On to vulgar fortune-telling. The lower arcana follows the same format

as playing cards; king, queen, knave, on down to the ace. The additional card is the page, who enters the sequence between the knave and the ten.

The four suits are the wands, cups, swords, and pentacles. While each card has its own specific meaning, which can be learned, 01 just plain read from t!he key, the suits haw unifying qualities. The wands tend to expresa the influence of natural, enduring influences. the cups immediate and sensual ones, swords rapid, and possibly violent changes in the temporal world, and pentacles slow and pen.. sive alterations in the intellectual or spiritual

There are two bas!(: methods of reading the, cards. The Celtic, which Arthur maintains i:, the beL!t and puresr , i o tione by choo<l:;p ore’ -arc fr(]:,; .!,c I.,.. >. ,1:2<a::: ,:\ * ’ . . , . 1’ , : .. , . ~ , . , . ) . , .

is placed down. Nine cards are lai; around the significator, the first crossing her. Not to go into too much detail, the inner four, placed in a square around the significator deal with immediate problems and eventualities, while the outer four, which line vertically to the right of the querent’s card, point to the future.

The alternative method involves many dealings and stackings and re-dealings. It’s best for parties, when you’re trying to wow the crowd with your gypsy heritage. If that sort of thing appeals, get your own book. and figure it out.

If when you first lay hands on the Trump Major, spiritual lightening doesn’t go zapp- ing through your finger tips, don’t despair.

Therapeutic value can be the Tarot’s greatest asset. You sit reading for somebody and you say: “The Queen of swords crosses you. A grim, stern woman who is not unfamiliar with pain is your obstacle.”

“My god, my mother.” “The Nine of wands is under you. A young

expectant person, prepared for battle. This is a decision you’ve already made, that sup- ports you. You’re prepared to be a fonnidi- ble adversary.”

The querent beams, you beam. The cards are like enchanted Rorscharch blots, they tell people what they already know. But they aren’t really admitting them. The cards s e responsible.

But be careful. Once, I did a reading for a friend, while another sat by watching. I didn’t realize how superstitious the second was until I began the interpretation. The cards were coming up very bad indeed, for someone close to the querent. Waxing in my role as magus, I began to expand on the horrors awaiting this third party, when the superstitious one, jumped up and ran from the room, yelling, “Stop it ! It’s me!”

“Damn it,” I yelled back at her, “They’re just cards.” She turned and stared at me, ashen and shaken. “I wonder.” she said.

“For the first half an hour we were probably playing our best all season,” said coach Joe Johnson. But then left-back Eric Jones ag- gravated an ankle injury and had to be carried off. In the confusion following the reorganization of the defense Victoria scored.

After that UBC pressed, but all in vain, they had shots cleared off the line and on other occasions missed the target by inches. At the end of the 90 minutes however they had nothing to show.

“ I was very pleased with the effort” Johnson said. “We know the Victoria boys can be beaten.”

The only thing that worried Johnson about next Saturday’s match is that he is again down to just 12 fit outfield players. Still, he said, “We’ll be going all the time and it should be an excellent game.

parapsychological research in the . U.S. and Europe. Doctorates in parapsychology are available at

“Unless you believe charlatans and liars, no one can claim parapyschology is a consistent phenomenon, UBC associate

, psychology professor Raymond ~ Corteen charges.

But others think differently. “Extrasensory perception is an

ability I have,” psychic Maureen McGuire says. “It’s like singing or dancing well.”

“They call me a clairvoyant,” McGuire says. She says she knows and sees things other people cannot by the use of ESP.

McGuire has worked for the police, locating lost planes and people, and seeking clues in murder cases, she says. She has a 50 per cent success rate in locating downed aircraft.

“Any aircraft I did not locate was never located.”

When a plane crashes McGuire has a premonition previous to being contacted about it.

“When the phone call comes I go into an altered state and become the lost person,” she says. “If he’s cold, I’m cold.” McGuire says she can then tell the caller the lost person’s situation and location.

Corteen says if a psychic is successful, it is chance. “If you tell me a plane’s flight path I can make a general statement about its posi- tion, but it will be wrong nine times out of ten.”

But there are those who believe in McGuire’s visions. “Businessmen ask me to read their business’ outlook,” she says. A reading is a vision of the future or a vision of something current that other people

She often lectures at universities and high schools on parapsychology. “Public opinion is favourable to parapsychology.”

McGuire says she was born with her gift. “I’ve had ESP all my life. I predicted my father’s death at the age of ten,” McGuire says. Ten years ago she studied a course at Douglas College on self-hypnosis. She then began to take ESP serious-

ly.

Corteen says the police use psychics at the insistence of relatives.

RCMP staff sergeant Nylund says the RCMP sometimes contact psychics themselves, “But the majority of times police use a psychic, the family requests it or a psychic offers free assistance.”

Psychic David Young offered assistance. in the recent Clearwater murder case, Nylund says. the police have limited success with psychics. “I’ve never been on a case with a pyschic that was successful,” Nylund says.

“If they (psychics) work without disrupting us or costing up money, I’d appreciate their help,” Nylund says.

McGuire says she is never paid for working on police cases.

Nylund adds that psychic information is often so vague it is useless. “In one case a psychic said the victim was in trees by a stream. You cannot use such general information.”

The president of Psychic Systems Research says authorities’ use of psychics is proof of the existence of ESP.

But the views of Larry DeFehr’s and Maureen McGuire’s vary considerably.

DeFehr says ghosts do not exist and if tarot card readers are accurate they are using psi (ESP) energy. He says ESP is a mind energy. “I think it is possible Moses used this energy to part the Red Sea,” he says.

But McGuire believes ESP is a

gift from God. While she dislikes witchcraft she believes in spirits, tarot cards and astrology. “I’ve been in haunted Lower Mainland housles,” she says.

Defehr, and others, including Simon Fraser University faculty member Robert Harper, are ex- perimenting with parapsychology at SFU *

In one test, the subject must iden- t i f y one of two possible numbers generated by the tester. I f a person can consistently identify the number, the person must have psi energy, DeFehr says.

{Corteen says these experiments are invalid because they cannot be properly controlled.

“‘Experiments are controlled. I don’t think lab control is an issue,” DeFehr said.

other universities, such as J.F. Ken- nedy in San Francisco. DeFehr says within ten years SFU or UBC will offer a degree in parapsychology.

Corteen is less encouraging to potential students of parapsychology. “It’s absolutely impossible at UBC,” he says.

Corteen says all experiments con- firming psychic power’s reality are fraudulent (this includes the famous Rhine experiments performed at Duke University). “They are possible, but could be fraudulent and You must prove an experiment’s validity beyond a reasonable doubt.”

McGuire says “some psycho- logists have fixed ideas, and without examining the data they make pronouncements.”

Corteen was involved in parapsychological experimentation in Scotland and Vancouver. All his results were negative.

But he says experimentation should continue. If verifiable evidence was produced he could believe in ESP.

Corteen adds, “the best person to test a psychic is a first class magician.” A really good magician can fake most things psychics say they can really do.

McGuire asks if a magician can give information over a phone. She has also done readings for three 4

magicians.

ESP because they very much want to.

’ McGuire says she never wanted ESP. She initially felt guilt for predicting the deaths of her father and other relatives but learned to live with her prophetic abilities.

Corteen and DeFehr recognize the grey areas in their debate. The first says there is no solid evidence against ESP, and the second that there is no positive evidence yet.

Sergeant Nyldnd is probably correct when he says, “If others can show they can help by strange means or powers, we’ll go along.”

“You cannot explain some things.”

Corteen says people believe in

Instead, the magnanimous John Carpenter - perpetrator of Hallowe’en I1 - is offering you The Night No One Came Home.

The Thing, the Shape, the Reincarnation of Pure Evil is gone, toasted to a fine crisp at the end of Hallowe’en 11. Not that such an occurrence would

Also absent from the ranks of Hallowe’en I11 is Jamie Lee Cur- tis, who managed to survive the Shape’s vendetta in parts I and 11.

Hallowe’en I11 Directed by Tommy Lee Wallace Playing at Odeon

So what happens on the Night No One Came Home?

Not much, because the movie is about the week before the Night No One Came Home.

Watch the absurd computer graphics at the beginning of Hallowe’en 111 make up the title credits: Hallowe’en 111: Season of the Witch.

Try and comprehend why the movie is called Season of the Witch when there isn’t a single witch in the whole movie.

See an evil toymaker unleash terrible powers of Stonehenge on American children.

It should be a very tight game, said UBC coach Donn Spence. "We know each other very well and have very similar teams, young and fast."

UBC are coming off a 28-0 victory against Capilanos on campus last weekend which keeps them undefeated in the league. The team has four games to go this half, two of them against very strong opposition. So by Christmas, when they've made up their backlog of games they should have a clear idea of their chances.

Tempest 'deliberately camp' By PETER BERLIN

Vancouver may seem like a cultural backwater at times but for a movie to take years to arrive here despite an enthusiastic critical reception in London is unusual.

The delay should not discourage anybody from going to see Derek Jarman's fascinating interpretation of Shakespeare's Tempest. But a word of warning: Jarman's Tempest is certainly an off-beat version. Those who expect to see Olivier, Scoefield, Gielgud and other of the big English theatre names in another filmed version of some traditional West End production are in for a surprise. Jarman has no background in classical theatre; he is first and foremost a self-consciously avant-garde film- maker.

He is also deliberately and proud- ly, camp.

If you look down the cast list for familiar names you won't find any. Prosper0 is played by Heathcote Williams, an actor who has divided his life between fringe acting and magic. Also in the cast are Jack Birkett as Caliban, pop singer Toyah Willcox as a very knowing Miranda and Karl Johnson as Ariel, very much the fairy.

The location is also quite unlike the mock Tudor setting traditional- ly used in Shakespeare adaptations (Polanski excepted). The exteriors are shot on the bleak Nor- thumberland coast and the interiors in a crumbling English mansion fill-

Batten’s cases variable By VICTOR WONG

How many people like to read books about lawyers besides law students and lawyers?

Your decision to read them may depend on what you expect from a book about lawyers. If you are expecting elaboration on court cases from the lawyer’s point of view, then here’s a book that won’t disap- point you.

In Court By Jack Batten Macmillan

William Essen awarded the crippled hockey player $348,000 - the first such settiement in Canadian sports history.

Batten certainly cannot be faulted for bad writing; in many of the chapters he can hold the-reader spellbound. Unfortunately, not all the chapters are like that; a few are comprised of interviews which seem tedious to a layman.

Also, each chapter is written in a different manner - some are about lawyers, some about cases, and a few mix both up. There is no sense of unity between the chapters, other

than the fact ihat there are lawyers involved. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but Batten could at least try to be consistent in his style.

Perhaps one of the book’s biggest problems is the way it is being publicized. We are led to believe that each chapter contains a sense of drama; in reality, only a few cases hold that sense of drama, and in smaller quantities than we are led to expect. As a profile on lawyers, the book does an admirable job, if you are expecting Perry Mason-type cases, be prepared to be disap- pointed.

Rhythm Mission’s front is Den- nis, who played tasteful sax lines which gave the band the high end it sometimes lacked. Guitarist Scott Harding and keyboard man Lee Kelsey meshed perfectly with Har- ding’s slashing Gang of Four style.

Where else would the obvious stars of a group called Rhythm Mis- sion come from except through the tremendously strong rhythm combo of bass and drums? Band leader Warren Hunter played frenzied bass lines and jousted with drum- mer Warren Ash all night.

The surprisingly tight Rhythm Mission unit has played only a few scattered dates around town. They do have a solid background since each member has worked with other groups. The band’s strength ob- viously lies in it’s undeniably individual stance. Each member plays in his own form bringing together pillars of strength from all corners.

Reasons .why Rhythm Mission will be around for a time to come include tunes like Stick it Out, a jolting number which most inex- perienced bands would have a great deal of trouble writing, and New York Johnny, an uplifting sax run.

However, instead of being satirical, the book and its main characters are just like the real thing. Dull. Nonfiction.

As satire it fails. As John K . Galbraith and Milton Friedman know, if there is anything that is needed in these hard economic times, it is good satire. The purpose of satire is to mock at and jest about circumstances which are being taken all too seriously for the’ gravity of the situation.

Instead, J.T. McLaughlin stands as a symbol of the average Cana- dian. He over-consumes, he is in debt, he wants more and he is UP- tight about getting it.

Consider Paul and Mary Bland your average California - nay, Americancouple. Like any other middle-class, bourgeois pairing, Paul and Mary desperately want to satisfy their craving for the American dream.

Paul and Mary are being stifled by high rents, low-paying jobs and desire to own a restaurant in Valen- cia, California. They plant to name it Chez Bland. Or at least Paul and Mary’s Country Kitchen.

What’s an average couple to do in these dire times?

What better idea than to invite swingers home under the pretence of satisfying their basest desires, kill them, and rob them? Everyone else seems to be doing it, figuratively speaking, why not Paul and Mary?

Indeed, why not? “People are pigs,” says wine connoisseur Paul. And pigs crave brutal, unfeeling treatment. When a Latino thief, Raoul (Robert Bertran), barges into their apartment, they are all too eager to have him help them. Of course, once Raoul outlives his usefulness, there is no need for him. (One guess as to what they do with Raoul.)

Read what you will into Paul Bartel and Richard Blackburn’s John Waters-type scenario. A couple of white, middle-class stuckups taking advantage of anyone possible? Survival of the fittest in America of the ’8&? A lesson in modern-day cannibalism in which a metaphorical piece of human meat becomes a real one?

Above all, Eating Raoul is the best piece of satire to emerge this year since Richard Brook’s Wrong is Right. This low budget film, directed by Paul Bartel, is nothing less than a gem - and one of the year’s funniest films.

Good grief, it’s Snoopy! BY SHAFFIN SHARIFF

Lucy: (talking about Snoopy). He’s not even human.

Snoopy: ( t o aud ience ) : That’s a point in my

favor. On stage is a giant playground of

the mind where fantastical recollec- tions of childhood come to life. The set is full of bright reds, yellows, and oranges. As the lights dim, it is filled with characters one usually knows as two-dimensional creations depicted in a daily cartoon strip.

These are no ordinary creations. They are adult characters in the guise of children, trying to discover, at the heart of their numerous escapades, the meaning of life. And the meaning of life, as one character says, frequently means going “back to sleep and (hoping) tomorrow is a better day.”

The intuitive words of wisdom are from Charlie Brown. And at North Vancouver’s Presentation House, Charlie Brown (James Cronk) and the rest of the Peanuts gang, including Snoopy, have been brought to life in a bright, energetic musical that is first-rate entertain- ment.

The Peanuts gang is portrayed not by child actors, but adult actors who have their characters’ traits and gestures down pat. All the car- .toon characters’ quirks have been retained for this musical. Lucy

(Gabrielle Jones) is as mean-spirited (unbearable) as ever, Linus (Stephen Salvatti) is still the burning intellect with a fetish for his b lue s ecu r i ty b l anke t , and Woodstock (Margo Northey) still follows Snoopy like a groupie.

This is no easy task, especially in a musical which has a cast of characters mostly known as cartoon figures. What is so good about this musical, even considering the actors’ perfect character renditions, is that it works like a cartoon strip. The four-frame strip is now a short skit; and the rhythm of the printed cartoon is now the tempo of the

And when there are actors like Eckman and Stephen Salvatti on stage, there is very little that can go wrong. In this production, no musical note is off the mark, and nothing detracts from the show’s appeal.

Rosen unbalanced By KERRY RECIER

Charles Rosen’s piano performance for the Recital Society on Sunday night displayed some of the qualities of a performance by a thoughtful, serious, rather conventional, and very talented amateur.

Now amateur is a highly personal term, and must not be thought of as necessarily pejorative. Rosen is a professional, and also something of a polymath with a French literature doctorate, three interesting books on music history (no mean feat,

Politics mar stardom By PETER BERLIN

At the Commodore ballroom Tuesday night Gill Scott Heron demonstrated that he’s got all it takes to be successful in contemporary music. He’s got a fine voice, he writes excellent songs, and he’s got a very good back up band, the Amresia Express, his music is easy- flowing jazz that is so popular nowadays.

Heron’s got a tremendous stage presence and best of all he’s got a sense of humour. So why isn’t he a star? Perhaps because he’s had a bad dose of politics for the 17 years he’s been performing and shows no signs of having sought a cure.

Right from the start of the three hour show, Heron demonstrated his political wit with From Shogun to Raygun, in which he explained how 26 per cent of the US voters con- stituted a landslide in 1980 and what he thought of the current president of that great country. He called the now “Hollyweird”.

The next object of Heron’s acute scruting The Gun involved Mayor Rizzo of Philadelphia and his attempt to persuade the populace to give up their handguns by putting them into special boxes in fire stations; only one gun was ever given up. As Heron said, “Why should we give up our guns when the police don’t. It makes for an unfair fight.” Heron’s inability to take Rizzo and his notorious cops seriously demonstrates where he differs from normal political songwriters.

There is a distinct absence of anger. In its place -- whether he’s singing about the sle of baby for- mulas to the Third World (Save the Children), nuclear power stations Ole’s been anti nuclear for ten years but has yet to be seen at big rallies), persecuted illegal aliens or white suppression of Blacks (Washington D.C. and Johannesburg) - he is always humorous and optimistic. He has seen Angola, Mozambique

and Zimbabwe gain independence, and for him, it’s only a question of time before Namibia and Azania join them. As he says on Alien, i f you don’t have hope you don’t have anything at al l .

He is quick to irony of the pover- ty in which 60 per cent of Washington’s population - the Blacks who live just miles away from the White House - find themselves.

The civilized, upbeat and laugh- ing way in which Heron cooly details one human outrage after another is mirrored in the type of music the band plays. I t ’s sophisticated and pleasant to listen to.

On the closing number, Johan- nesburg, while Heron was explain- ing the great irony of apartheid (“L.A. like Johannesburg, New York like Johannesburg”), the band was pumping out the most joyous jazz-rock and the audience was dancing and having a good time. Even the singer himself, Heron, was smiling.

My only qualm about Heron rests now, as it always has, on the way he choses to present his ideas. When it works, the cool approach to outrageous subjects in cool jazz music is fine; it may not be what we expect but that gives it strength.

But, without anger to propel it, his music is always dangerously close to sounding bland, especially as Heron relies on others to write his melodies for him. And on Tuesday night there were, between the gems, examples of songs which were in- stantly forgettable. Richie Havens’ passionate Man showed that much of Heron’s music is lifeless.

In the end, though, its good to know that Heron is out there somewhere keeping his torch burning and viewing the horrors of 0u.r world with his such an acute eye.

Book now for 1984 and avoid dissapointment.

that) and several recordings of Bach and Beethoven to his credit.

The word amateur must here be taken to mean, very precisely, a kind of approach to the music.

Rosen began and ended his recital with two rarely heard works, the Schumann Dichtungen or Poems, and the Beethoven Sonata Op. 2 No. 2 . In between was the extremely familiar Moonlight Sonata of Beethoven. I t is in this polarity, between the well-known and the obscure , t ha t l i e s t he “amateurishness.”

With unfamiliar music, the amateur will be working hard to get the piece right, concentrating, and not leaving much room for feeling. But in a piece the amateur knows well, the situation changes, for the performer persumably knows the way around the notes and can now relax and play with the piece, or give it some play in the Barthesian sense.

What happened Sunday night was Op. 2 No. 2 and the Schumann were played in that dry, “practis- ing” style characteristic of the unadventurous amateur. The Moonlight, on the other hand, received very powerful, old high romantic style performance.

Rosen played the first movement of the Moonlight sonata with many rolled chords, sounding the lower notes first, something rarely done today. In the minuet and the violent finale Rosen, in the manner of Schnabel or Lhevinne, made very liberal use of rubato, altered dotted rhythms to become more flexible, rushed home to the ends of certain very exciting phrases, and ham- mered out the big moments of the last movement with a completely un-modern furious abandon.

To be sure, Rosen made a lot of mis takes , espec ia l ly in the Moonlight where he at one point clearly mouthed a vigorous “Damn!” But people are not b l o o d y m a c h i n e s , g e t t i n g everything perfect every time.

While Rosen got the notes much more precisely in the other two works, which were unbearably and offensively dull, the Moonlight had a real, human feeling.

Rosen played the inaugural recital of the Recital Society’s new Hamburg Steinway, donated by Dr. Eva Bene in memory of her mother. Speaking wit the president of the Recital Society, Rosen said the piano was one of the finest he had ever played, though it is still new and stiff. Fine news for the Recital Society which has been having problems with pianos from the very beginning.

And you thought life was a bowl of pumpkins. 1 Just because it’s Hallowe‘en doesn‘t mean you can mask your problems. 1 . The big, bad real world is still out there with it’s many tricks and few treats. I Just ask Bill Bennett. He’s probably got lots of tricks in store for I students, as well as a lot of other people.

And what about Messrs. Pat McGeer and Bill Vander Zalm? Will their recently bestowed treats prove to be sweet enough?

Then there is P.E. Trudeau and his crew of clowns. One can only guess at the eery spells they are concocting for the future of post secondary education.

And as the little kiddies wander the darkened streets on Oct. 31, will the Canadian Federation of Students also dress up once more and knock meekly at the door of government?

But let’s look on the bright side. Maybe there will be enough ghosts, goblins and witches creeping about to scare some life into students.

Perhaps, oh if only it could happen, we’ll all transform into vampires and spill some of the government’s blood for once, instead of the other way around.

Students are more like ghosts, though - rarely seen, seldom heard, and usually fading away.

This Hallowe’en can be different. After the costumes are put away, let’s not revert to our old selves. Let’s

show the public we’re not just overgrown kiddies always trying to get a bigger piece of candy.

Let’s demand that the goodies society has to offer be shared equally by all. Especially university. Demand free access, and reject the elitism that university breeds. Refuse to be trained to take over the reigns of society.

Pro-Lifers threaten basic freedoms with stance

c

By SHERI DEKOVEN after twenty weeks of Pregnancy

The strategy of such groups - in effort to erase any loopholes-in the present criminal code dealing with abortion - is to approach the issue on emotional grounds. They attempt to influence a person’s sense of injustice with pictures of fully formed fetuses, babies dumped in garbage cans and literature relating the ordeals of aborting a “human life”, which, they claim, leads to the antagonizing guilt feelings akin to murder.

In order to make full impact, these misleading photographs, ob- viously of fetuses past the first trimester, are chosen for their shock value. In Canada and the United States, abortions are not performed

completely dependent on the female’s life support system. They are inextricably connected by the placenta and umbilical cord and no amount of morality can ignore the obvious physical and emotional af- fects of pregnancy on the woman.

Too often, in the search of a moral stand, the respect for the quality of hyman life is put aside, ignored as the selfish preoccupation of our society with the “easy life.” Making abortion illegal places the importance of an unborn child over that of an already productive human being and refuses to allow for the emotional and physical well being of every fertile female. We, as women, must pay the price of any

sexual irresponsibility, in a time where birth control is neither safe nor even uniformly available and never 100 per cent effective.

The demand for abortion has been present throughout history and it’s demand will continue, despite Pro-Lifers. Without the availability of legal abortion however, women are forced to resort to dangerous self-induced methods or medical procedures carried out in imDroDer condit.ions. Those who are- rich enough will always be able to afford decent medical attention, even if it means having to leave the country for an operation. It is the poor who suffer, who are forced to back-street a.bor- tionists or even attempt to induce abortions themselves. In Mexico, where legal abortions are difficult to obtain, four out of five beds at the Woman’s Hospital in Mexico City are filled with women suffering complications as a result of illegal abortions (according to Time, April 6 , 1981). Restrictive abortion laws are discriminatory against fertile women in general and against the poor in particular.

These issues, however, are cloud- ed over by the emotional stance of too many organizations. In- dividuals become involved with Pro-Life groups as a result of a strong sense of morality, but they tend to overlook the basic doctrines of such groups. They are spurred on by the idea of moral justice tcl the unborn and dismiss ihe implications that these beliefs hold for the already born.

We are facing the underlying danger with right-to-life groups, both in the United States anld in Canada, for in both countries the political connections are similar. That is, their association with our society’s ,right-wing fringe of our society. Ultra-right political groups in the U.S., such as those ad- vocating capital punishment and legalized discrimination agadnst homosexuals, are dependent on members of these right-to-life groups for fund-raising and campaign support. In return, politicians promise the total abolition of existing abortion laws and other fun- damental changes in constitutional freedom. In effect, these political parties are manipulating single issue voters in order to gain support,

In Canada this rightist factioa 1s represented by several groups under the Pro-family Coalition, including Campaign Life, Positive par’ents and Canadians for Family and Freedom. These groups were especially active last year in attemp- ting to get God and fetal rights included in the new constitution, forcing their personal moral and

religious values on the population. Presently, legal action is being

taken in Ottawa that could lead to declaring invalid the existing law concerning abortion. If successful, even the limited availability of abortion in Canada will become illegal unless the actual life of the mother is endangered. No other circumstances will be considered adequate reason for the operation.

Such organizations as Pro-Life

It is time that .we realize the implications underlying the abortion question and recognize the beliefs of such groups for what they really stand for, that is, the belief in the undemocratic and dictatorial control of over half the population.

Letters ‘I ‘Really great trek, Cliff’

It was my privilege as chair of the Fairview committee of the university Alumni Association to serve as guest M.C. at .the founder’s dinner held as a tribute to the classes of 1916-29 by the Alma Mater Society on Friday, Oct. 22.

I t was an unforgetable evening. More than 100 students and faculty of the Fairview years recalled the memories of old friendships and conveyed to their undergraduate hosts a sense of the spirit of ’22 which has given the university its true meaning.

The founders enjoyed the address by Pierre Berton, distinguished author and broadcaster, graduate of ’41 and Tumesday editor of The Ubyssey 19401-41, and by the chancellor, the Honorable J . V. Clyne, a member of the Great Trek campaign committee.

The presentation of the Great Trekker award by Alma Mater Society president Dave Frank, to Nestor Korchinsky was to the founders a highlight of the evening. It kindled within the reflections of the abiding loyalty among faculty and stkdents from sixty years ago in their undergraduate days.

Those who attended the dinner have asked that I convey to the AMs and undergraduate body their deep sense of gratitude for the many courtesies extended to them on this occasion.

I should also like to convey my personal thanks to Cliff Stewart, and to commend his Trek comrnit- tee for its energy and initiative in planning and organizing Trek ’82.”

Physicians in bed with peaceniks I wish to correct any misap-

prehensions your readers may have gained from Jim Christian’s letter (protestors lose sight of goals, Oct. 22).

Christian criticizes Physicians for Social Responsibility for “class snobbery” and would have it that we “edged out” student and other groups from participation in a seminar on disarmament in February.

Fortunately, nothing could be further from the truth. Indeed, our organization is cooperating with UBC Student for Peace and Mutual Disarmament, Science for Peace, and Educators for Nuclear Disar-

mament in preparation for an open symposium on nuclear disarmament to be held at UBC in the IRC on March 5-6, 1983. At the planning stage, we enjoyed particularly close liason with the student group, and we expect to continue to work closely as the !symposium ap- proaches.

Working in libraries Your article on employment pro-

spects for graduates (Friday Oct. IS) contained a story about Beverley Scott, a librarian who because she was unable to find work in a library in Vancouver has established herself as a free-lance provider of information. Your readers may be interested to know the actual situation of the graduates of the UBC school of librarianship.

Fifty out of 60 of the spring 1982 graduates are employed at the present time. Of the remaining 10, four are not actively looking for work at the moment. This is not to say that the employed SO are all working at

full-time permament jobs in the locations or the libraries of their choice. However, I.hat so many are working at all is impressive, considering the current state of the economy, which has had a heavy impact on public services of all kinds.

Anyone who attempts to find work as a librarian in Vancouver right now will enmunter difficulty, but I suspect the same is true for individuals in many other profes- sions, such as pgineering, architec- ture and social work.

Move over Maranatha I think it important to bring to

the attention of the student body the impending danger of an in- sidious cult.

Posing as an “alternative” to more orthodox religion and philosophical cultdom, the Anus Mundi Society is in fact no more than a scurrilous mockery of faith, morality and honesty. It bases itself, as a dogma, upon contradic- tions and dirty words. the majority of this cult’s maxims are phrased in such a gutter fashion that I dare not disgrace this letter with them.

The point of this warning is simply to cut the threat at the root. All too soon the press agents of Anus Mundi will sweep this campus with their posters and their preaching. But take heed, students; it is a

fraud. As well as utter corruption, these people are after money. In- deed, they believe that a cult pro- fessing a corruptive morality will breed dollars like rabbits.

It is no accident that the initials of this cult are AMs, for by this means the agents of Anus Mundi may pass themselves off as members of our own Alma Mater Society.

It is enough to beware; this is no cult, it is a rip-off. Students may be corrupt enough to enjoy the hedonism of this cult, but they should be smart enough not to allow its organizers to walk away with student monies.

Being a regular reader of The Ubyssey, I do not feel that the letter written by Bill Tieleman (Rag is Radical, Sort of, Oct. 22) should pass without comment. Being neither a Liberal, nor an acquain- tance of Brent Tynan, I think that the view of an outsider might prove useful.

Firs t ly upon reading Mr. Tieleman’s letter, I could not help but notice that he resorts to the same kind of distortion he accuses Mr. Tynan of engaging in. Rather than provide an objective critique of Brent Tynan’s words, Bill Tieleman resorts to name calling and political labelling - both of which had nothing to do with the letter written by Brent - in an attempt to cloak the words of Mr. Tynan in the stigma attached to the Liberal Party. ” A s for “hurling stones and screaming abuse at the system,” I’m sure that Brent Tynan meant for the sentence to be taken figuratively and not literally. After all, how will a n y sort of protest or plea for funds associated with the Great Trek, bearing in mind media attention and our provice’s present economic situation, be viewed in the eyes of the general public? HOW would such a protest be viewed in

As for the burning question of “trendy radicalism,” I suggest that Ubyssey take a random sample of all students and ask them: I . Do you agree with the general content of editorials of The Ubyssey? 2. If not, would you place yourself to the political right or left of The Ubyssey? I’m sure the results of such a survey would prove interesting to students of all political stripes.

Finally, 1 personally believe that the Great Trek is an opportunity for the students of UBC to express our thanks to the public of B.C. for the fine, world class institution we do have. We should take pride in the fact that in regards to the combination of offered programs, academic freedom, accessibility and incredi- ble beauty, 1 doubt that UBC has a parallel on the face of this planet. The Trek is a celebration of the wealth with which we are so forunately endowed. It is for this reason that instead of clamouring for more, once, just once, let’s be thankful.

Original corrective not irregular In response to the letter sent tc

The Ubyssey last Friday by Steven Harris, the poll supervisor for voting stations in SUB and Sedgewick, my letter of Tuesday, October 19 contained no errors. Poll clerks did campaign while on duty at polling stations.

This has been confirmed by SAC

Okay, okay That article Real Who-down

(Oct. 22) showed to me once again that your music articles are a real weakness. It really bugs me when you go around spewing off at the mouth about how The Who did a “.fantastic version of the Beatles’ Twist and Shout”. This sloppy reporting makes me sick, for any idiot past the age of four knows that Twist and Shout is not a Bleatles song. It is pretty common knowledge that Twist and Shout was written by the Isley Bros and was originally recorded by the Isley Bros. Although the Beatles did cut this song (in an inferior version), the Isley Bros. should still get the credit for it.

I would also like to say that the Beatles recorded one of the worst versions of it. Let’s fact it, the Astronauts of Boulder, Colorado,

did a way raunchier and superior version of this song. ( I guess I will get to the point of this letter). I think that if your music writers cannot even get facts straight about what group did what hit record first, how can anyone trust or value their opinions about any musical commentary?

and Student’s Council as ex- emplified in the Council Briefs sec- tion of The Ubyssey (Oct. 22) in which your letter appeared. It states that “poll clerks . . . campaigned . . .”. It is irrelevant who the cam- paigning was for because such ac- tions hurt all candidates if the election has to be rerun. My letter’s purpose was not to criticize an election for the director of administration, how a group supported a can- d i d a t e , or t h e c a n d i d a t e s themsleves; it’s sole purpose was to impress on all students the great responsibility and effect poll clerks can have on the outcome of an election.

Yes, I recognize that a great number of other irregularities oc- cured during this past election (and these are presently before student’s court), but none of these should cloud the fact that electioneering

Raygun response I was singularly disturbed by the

lack of balance in your disarmament coverage (Oct. 26).

As free thinking people everywhere, but mostly in the West know, a rational, cool approach to nuclear weapons is always desirable to the kind of emotional horror stories depicted in your special edi- tion Tuesday.

To all British Columbians and Canadians, I offer this rueful bit of American common sense advice; Take the cruise, or I’ll dump acid rain all over you.

With honest intentions, your American friend.

was indeed carried on by poll clerks. The particular confirmed occasions brought to my own attention involved clerks at SUB, Sedgewick, and Totem Park.

They are confirmed. Mr. Harris, if you were really “very surprised” to learn that some of your clerks electioneered, all that I can say is, why didn’t you know this?

Pit protest Open letter to AMS president Dave Frank:

We vehemently protest the recent Pit policy of forcing students to pay a cover charge of approximately $3.00 on Thursday and Friday nights for the “privilege” of quaffing cool ones in “our” student funded pub. We draw your attention to the word “student” in student pub. We can see a n y of these bands downtown at a commercial venue, so why should we be forced to pay a cover to drink at our Pit?

Thus, we strongly suggest you immediately change this inane policy. We are being screwed as it is in the beer price department since you persist in serving that Cheap Old Fort shit so we hope you take the time to bring this matter up with the appropriate people.

Health ministry official Paul Pallan, working under Lovelace said “there is a problem because there are more students due to the recession.”

NDP MLA Gary Lauk, said the government was warned.

“We told them about more students, they were warned - a recession tends to bring about an increase in post secondary enroll- ment,” Lauk said.

“The alternatives are hospital beds and heart, operations or

“At this point all the budgeted money has been used up, there is no more money now,” said Pallan, we have no authority to put money in.”

“Thlat’s no way to run .a grant program. The government’s at- titude to post secondary education is Calvinistic and narrow minded,” Lauk said. Dan Worsley UBC Awards office, assistant director said “I’m wondering if there is much hope. The awards office has done ad1 it can.”

Page said “all we can do is try and pressure them. Within the ministry of health $250.000 is not much, they’re budgeted in the billions.”

Students who applied for the health science grant should have received letters, which were sent four weeks ago, advising whether the grants will be received.

The grants were allocated on a first come, first served basis. As a result late applications or those pro- cessed slowly won’t get funds.

The deadline for grant applications is 10 weeks before the end of

pathetic to the needs of students and won’t make more funds available for the health science bur- s a r y program, a UBC health science director charged Thursday.

Christopher Lovelace, health ministry director for policy, planning, and legislation told health science officials there are no more funds, said Dr. Gordon Page.

“There was no notice of this shortfall. Students were caught off guard,” said Page, “Lovelace was qu i t e unsympa the t i c t o t he student’s needs.”

UBC received about $250,000 but needs that much again to adequate- ly fund the program which ex- perienced a surge in applications this f d . About 90 students applied for funds at UBC.

But the funding shortage isn’t restricted to UBC. At the B.C. In- stitute of Technology 60 students are affected. B.C.I.T. needed $1 10,OOO and received only S60,OOO.

Union ratifies new contract

director Bob Grant said, “We’re very pleased because we gave as much as we could considering the economic situation.”

Under .the new contract the university gained control of leave of absence which will save training cost and time for faculties, Grant said.

Final approval for the 8.1 percent average wage increase will be for- warded to Compensation Staboliza- tion Program commissioner Ed Peck. L

“The CSP will buy it,” said Grant.

The CSP has so far approved wage increases for educational in- stitutes ranging from 7.94 percent to 11.81 percent. Camosun College support staff received 7.94 and the College’s faculty received approval for a 12 per cent increase.

Jo-Anne Chilton, field development secretary in the faculty of education, voted no on the university’s contract package because the new job classifications are unfair for some occupations.

“Job classification should be looked into more specifically. I did not like the wage settlement because other unions are doing better and I think that we should be on par with what the other unions on campus

But the union memtlership ratified the contract despite a r ecommenda t ion f rom the negotiating team that it be rejected.

“It’s certainly no surprise that the contract was ratified but there are some serious problems” said negotiating committee member Nancy Weiggs. The new job descriptions will take away some seniority benefits, and allow less leave o f absence time, she said.

The new contract, approved by secret ballot, restructured the current job calssification system, and did not include the 12 month leave of absence clause which the union was negotiating for. Instead the

sponsored a conference to discuss education issues in the ’80s with s tuden t s , f acu l ty , and ad - ministrators Oct. 18.

But delegates from B.C. say the conference structure and lack of particiption by education ministers suppressed communication rather than improve it.

Alma Mater Society delegate Margaret Copping said the only education minister to participate in discussions was Saskatchewan’s.

“For one working day, McGeer (B.C.’s universities minister) was out of the hotel” said Copping. “ I tried to get a hold of him at his room but the hotel said he could not be reached.”

The conference, organized by the Council of Education Ministers, Canada, held for five days in Toronto, brought delegates from across the country to discuss institute governance, accessibility, the relationship between higher education and working life, financing nd “redeployment of resources.”

The CEMC modelled the conference after a similar Organization for Economic Development and Cooperation conference held in Paris.

“I’m not really sure why they organized the conference,” said Canadian Federation of Students - Pacific chair Donna Morgan. “It seems they did not want student and faculty involvement.”

The conference was divided into specific sessions where panelists were questioned by reactors. Morgan said one reactor represen-

“What is really depressing, is he (Williams) got his way to the conference payed by the government. The real representatives had to pay for themselves. They payed for a non-student to go and represent students,” said Morgan.

sial propositions. No time was allocated for rebuttal.

Seventy people walked out in protest during the speech Morgan said.

CFS held alternative discussions and press conferences during the coRference and established contacts with faculty and professional associations said Morgan.

In her closing remarks, Ontario education minister Betty Stevenson ignored education issues and said if universities weren’t responsible, they would be made to be, said Copping.

By BRIAN JONES Despite having laid off articling students, Vancouver accounting

firnls are still recruiting UBC accounting students, but Canada E:mployment Centre staffworkers are not divulging this information. mation.

The CEC simply “facilitates recruitment,” CEC counsellor Pat Brand said Thursday.

“They (students) really don’t need us as forecasters of the economy. Everybody knosws what it’s like,” Brand said. “It’s not a question that we ask students, or that they ask us.”

“We’re not here to investigate every firm to find out what their hiring practices are.”

“It is safe to say that the accounting firms did tell us that the number (of accounting students) they’d hire would be down from last year,” Brand said.

The number of students hired would probably decrease by 50 per cent relative to last year, he said.

Peter Norwood, Deloitte Haskins & Sell’s manager, said last week his firm has interviewed 80 UBC accounting students.

“We have determined that our needs for the year are 10 to 14 new students, which is the same number we looked for last year,” he said.

Only one of the people laid off was in first year of the two year articling program, said Norwood. “I think there would be an incon- sistency if we were laying off first year people,” he said.

“All those people who we laid off had completed their term of service, so they are still eligilble to write their exams.”

In. addition to the first year student, six other articling students have been laid off by Deloitte Haskins. The first has a total staff of 140, including 50 articling students.

“If the economy had been better the layoffs might not have been ,triggered at all,” he said.

“There was one that was a competency problem. The others had academic problems,” said Norwood.

AMS referendum called By CRAIG BROOKS

Students will vote in November on increasing their Alma Mater Society fees $20 per year.

Student council unanimously approved Wednesday sending a building and operating fund increase referendum to students Nov. 15 to 19.

The question asks students to allocate money for three areas:

0 A three dollar increase to the current $1.50 intramural support fee;

0 An increase in the current $10.50 AMS operating fee of $2.50 per year. Funds will be used for club grants, student council, media, and the expansion of services;

U S . lying’ says By B R U N JONES

The American government is lying to the public about the relative military strengths of the two super- powers, an ex-NATO general said Thursday.

“The number of strategic warheads of the U.S. has always been considerably greater than the number of strategic warheads of the

U.S.S.R.,” Nino Pasti told 100 people in Angus 104.

The U.S. government also misleads people about the relative amounts of funds spent on the military, said Pasti. “The West spends far more money on military forces than the East. NATO has always outspent the Warsaw Pact ,” he said.

“What is possible is that NATO, and not the Warsaw Pact, may start a conventional war,” he said.

Pasti said he has been accused of spreading Soviet propaganda, but added his information comes from U.S. government publications.

“You can’t say that official American sources support Soviet propaganda,” he said. “We are, in

Monday at 2 p.m., Tischer and Jan Regan, arts 3, moved into the eight by eight wooden box used to symbolize the shelter. They emerged Thursday pleased with the response their marathon drew.

“While we were in there we had a lot of people come up and ask us questions,” said Regan.

People pledged about $200 to the participants which will be used by the UBC students for peace and mututal disarmament to sponsor films, speakers, and distribute information on the world arms race.

After the 72 hours, Regan and Tischer emerged to flowers, cham- pagne, and a beer garden sponsored by the peace club. Surrounding the beer garden outside SUB cafeteria were walls with posters illustrating the reality of the nuclear age.

ex-general the Western World, subject to Western propaganda,” he added.

This is particularly true in regard to American claims that the West is behind in all aspects of the arms race, said Pasti. “The West has more nuclear weapons and conventional forces than the U.S.S..R.,” he said. * * * .

But the American public does not support its government’s military policies, charged Pasti.

“Peoplle desire to live to improve their standard of living, not to spend money for the possible destruction of mankind,” he said.

Pasti criticized the American government’s plan to base Cruise missiles in Europe.

“If this weapon is deployed, there

will be no possibility of coming to an agreement on limiting nuclear weapons in Europe,” he said. “If the U.S. goes on with the production and deployment of this weapon, in some time the U.S.S.R. will do the same.”

Cruise missiles will be stationed in five European countries, including Italy, said Pasti, who is an independent senator in the Italian parliament.

But Italians do not want the Cruise missile in their country, Pasti said.

“We collected one million signatures in Sicily against the deployment of the Cruise missile,” he said. “The population of Sicily is four million. One out of four people signed the petition.”
