Update: Pension Plans
By Fred Poulter
Vice-President (AdminJstration)
.
A meeting with members was held on April 6, 1989,
at which sample calculations of improved benefits
were presented. Members were asked to consider the
use of a moving average of annual fund rate of return
versus the application annually of the actual fund rate
of return. The averaging method will allow an investment policy to be applied which will increase the overall rate of return and consequently the ultimate benefit
to Plan members. The actuarial consultant has been
asked to provide a written opinion on the theory,
rationale and application of the averaging method.
The Joint Benefits Committee has been advised by
the consultant that Revenue Canada has given preliminary verbal comment on the draft text which provides
for Plan amendment. There was indication that Revenue Canada may have concern with the maximum
pension provisions in the plan and the manner of
funding deficiencies in the pension Guarantee Account. No action will take place until written comment
is received from Revenue Canada. There has not been
any response from the Pension Commission of Ontario
but a letter has been sent to the Commission asking for
an early review and in particular a request to allow an
immediate improvement to pensioners' benefits.
We have been advised that our Pension Fund
earned a 12.46 per cent rate of return for 1988. This is
the fifth best rate of return for pension funds as
reported by SEI Funds Evaluation Services.

Toe-tally absurd: The crew of CIV's Live It Up recently visited Lakebead
University to gather materialfor next season. While in Thunder Bay, host
Diane Buckner and company tested - what else - insect repellents. One
volunteer, David Del Zotto, put bis sole into the experiments and put bis
leg in the mosquito cage to see if they were in the mood to bite. Buckner
and guests also dined on some local creepy-crawlies at a bug brunch,
which featured haricots verts aux Tenebrio or green beans and mealworms. Dr. Yves Prevost, entomologist in the School of Forestry, hosted
the visit and performed chef duties.

A committee representing Plan members has been
meeting with University Administration over recent
months with the view to improving members' benefits.
This will be accomplished by utilizing an estimated
S2.1 million surplus which will be passed along to
members by Board of Governor's direction, through a
special distribution as of Jan. 1, 1988. Pensioners'
benefits will also be improved with cost of living
adjustments to compensate for such increases since

Dr. Bob Kosehart
McLeod Scores Major Victory
for Universities
As everyone knows, university underfunding has been a chronic problem in
Canada for some time. In recent years, the
problem has been compounded by increased student demand for university
places. In 1986, Minister Greg Sorbara
introduced a corridor funding model
which was designed to create a more stable
funding model for the university system.
However, pressed for increased participation, the government, shortly afterwards,
announced the "accessibility" fund. The
accessibility fund financially encouraged
universities to significantly increase their
enrolments in 1987 and 1988. Lakehead,
for example, was able to increase its enrolment in 1988 and, hence, took advantage
of the accessibility funding. The "cloud"
on the horizon was obvious last year when
the government announced that the accessibility fund would end this year. Obviously, C.O.U. and the Ontario universities
were concerned that students who would
spend three and four years in the system
would only be funded for the first one or
two years. This did not seem fair, and the
shouts came loudly for what has been
termed "flow through" funding for the
new students taken in 1987 and 1988.
In the May Provincial Budget, Treasurer
Robert Nixon announced that the government was committed to the concept offlow
through funding. Commitment is one
thing. Money is another. Lyn McLeod has
just announced that the government will
put an additional S46 million into the system in the 90/91 year and a possible total
commitment of some S91 million over the
flow through years. This is very good news,
and the Minister has been able to accomplish this feat at a time of growing budget
restraint. The S46 million additional
monies for 1990/91 are on top of the
currently committed S88 million accessibility fund and any inflationary adjustments.
Lakehead University and the system will
benefit from these funds, and I encourage
you, if you get the opportunity, to convey
our appreciation to Lyn McLeod.

LynMcLeod
O.C.U.A. Receives Approval of New
Funding Formula

Related to the above is the commitment
by the Minister that she has accepted
completely the proposed new long-term
funding arrangement proposed by
O.C.U.A. for universities and has empowered O.C.U.A. to implement their recommendations. The O.C.U.A. proposals reestabli.s h the commitment to a corridor
model that gives a fair degree of funding
stability and makes use of the "flow
through" monies, when no longer needed
for short-term accessibility, to be used for
individual institution corridor adjustments. Lakehead will become involved
with O.C.U.A. during the next year in the
corridor negotiation process. Depending
upon the dynamics of the Ontario system,
Lakehead is positioned well with respect to
moving to a new corridor. Such a move
would further enhance the fiscal viability
of the institution.
Incidentally, Dr. Viv Nelles, the Interim
Chairman of 0. C. U.A., has been named by
Premier Peterson to become the full-time
Chairman ofO.C. U.A. This is good news for
the system. Dr. Nelles is a history professor
from York who has strong interests in
northern issues.
Payroll Tax

The Treasurer did it to us in his May
Budget. The payroll tax introduced would
have cost Lakehead University an unbudgeted $80,000 in this year (1989/90) and
$240,000 in the 1990/91 budget year.
C.O.U. led the charge on behalf of the
university system, and the intense pressure
put on the government by the schools,
hospitals (and opposition) encouraged
the Treasurer to announce recently that
schools, hospitals and universities would
receive a special grant this year to cover the
cost and that, in setting the transfer payment level next year, the government

The recent passing of Harold Linklater is truly a great loss for Lakehead
University and this region. Harold was
many good things to many people, and
he has been a tremendous role model
and innovator in Native education in
this region. Harold's leadership with
the Native Teacher Education Program,
the M.C.U. Native Experience Program,
and the Keshadaying Residence were
significant accomplishments. His efforts at Lakehead have been well
founded, and the legacy of his work will
live on.
Harold was a quiet man, but one
who I found to be a no-nonsense, get-itdone type. On occasion, when I asked
Harold to undertake a task with respect
to our Native education initiatives, he
was most willing and a very hard worker
on behalf of his people and Lakehead
University. Harold was a true hockey
fan and many a night, I watched him sit
in the Fort William Gardens watching
the battles on the ice. Harold was a
quiet man of great abilities, accomplishments and integrity who will be missed
by many.
Summer'89

The residences are progressing rapidly and are scheduled to be ready for
September.. Many people seem impressed with the quality of the top soil at
the Forest/Biology excavation site, and
the plans are quickly advancing for the
Student Centre/Regional Education
Centre project.
Several new academic Chairmen are
taking office on July 1 as well as Alan
Bowd as Director of the School of Education. Dr. Connie Nelson assumes her
role as Director of Graduate Studies and
Research and, along with the Senate Research Committee, she will get right
down to work in terms of the implementation of the award mechanism for the
Sl53,000 Research Infrastructure
Fund.

Ontario introduces
payroll tax
Courtesy ofNotes from AUCC

Ontario universities will pay $3 7.5
millionannuallyunderanewprovincial payroll tax to fund the Ontario
Health Insurance Plan. This is $24.5
million more than they paid in OHIP
premiums prior to the tax. The tax
was included in the provincial
budget tabled earlier this year. For
the universities, it comes on top of a
provincial operating increase ofless
than 4% for 1989-90 and on top of the
impact of the federal budget: the
federal budget-which affects universities across Canada - provides,
among other things, for a 1% increase (to 11%) in the tax on telecommunications services and increases in unemployment insurance
premiums which, for employers, will
grow by approximately 15.4%.

lack of aid to

Part-time students, who form 38 per cent of
the Canadian university population, are not
receiving the financial assistance and the academic recognition they deserve, according to
two researchers at the University of New Brunswick. In a report entitled "Financial Assistance and Academic Recognition for Part-Time
Undergraduate Students at Canadian Universities", Judith Potter and Anne Stapleton criticize the "misconception" that part-time students are people with enough financial resources and time to "trifle with education".
Potter and Stapleton point to evidence which
shows that the majority is in fact made up of
married women with little income who are
trying to upgrade their job-related skills. Less

�Distance Education: never too far away to learn
Distance can be measured in miles or in
time.
Distance Education is designed for students who live hundreds of miles from
campus or have no time to attend regularly
scheduled classes.
Susan Cole, Co-ordinator of Distance
Education, cites two main advantages for
distance studies: convenience and flexibility. The courses are convenient because
the course materials are delivered to the
student's home. "Apart from due dates for
assignments and examinations, the student can work at his/her own pace, and
work around individual lifestyles," she
said.
Learning packages consist of required
textbooks, audio and/or visual tapes,
study guide and, in some cases, supplemental readings and self-testing materials.
A network of Access Sites is operated by
Contact North in communities across
Northwestern Ontario. These sites include
such facilities as audio teleconferencing
equipment, telewriters, audio and video
(VHS) tape recorders as well as facsimile
machines (FAX).
Teleconferencing is what helps set Distance Education apart from other programs. These group telephone meetings
create a forum for the exchange of ideas
with classmates and interaction with the
instructor.

Pero is a graduate of I.akehead University, he is also a former Nor'Wester player
from the late '60s.
Pero is one of the founders of the
I.akehead University Basketball Camp. He
has been involved in the camps as a staff

credit. The move from high school athletics to the university level does not present
any problems, he said.
"It's a simple game," Pero said. "The
only difference is the quality of the athlete." He noted that the university-level
games are faster and have more experienced players.

Q. Why does plastic waste not break
down in the environment or even in the
sea?
A.Plastic waste originates largely from
discarded wrapping and packaging materials. Although most of the waste consists
of two plastics- polyethylene and polystyrene - polyvinylchloride (PVC) and polyesters are being used to an increasing
extent; e.g. many "unbreakable" pop
bottles are now made of a polyester.
If you take a trip to the Supermarket,
you will buy milk which is packed in a
polyethylene container, a steak which is
placed on a polystyrene tray and covered
with a film of PVC, potatoes which are
July 1989

packed in a polyethylene bag, a polyester
bottle of pop, and finally at the check-out
your purchases will be packed in a polyethylene bag. Similarly, your prescription
drugs will be packed in a polystyrene
container which has a polyethylene cap,
and the shampoo bottle is also made of
polyethylene. These materials ultimately
tum up in the garbage, and become the socalled "plastic waste".
The persistence of these materials is attributable to their resistance to attack and
breakdown by micro-organisms; i.e. to biodegradation. Two criteria are important
when assessing biodegradability (a) the
molecular weight, and (b) the nature of the
material. Let me expand on each of these
factors.
Plastics are made from polymers, which
in tum, are made up of small molecules
(monomers) joined together in chains,
rather like beads on a string. This polyeth•
ylene consists of a large number of ethylene molecules joined together. The molecular weight of ethylene is 28, and that of
a polyethylene containing 1000 monomer
units is 28,000. Since the strength of a
polymer is strongly dependent on the molecular weight, materials used for packaging tend to have high molecular weights
(up to a million). It is precisely this requirement which leads to the lack of bio-degradability of polyethylene and polysty·

Wednesday, June 14: This morning
the crew was up around 4:30 and back
on the final leg into Yellowknife ... the
expedition was ahead of schedule.
Saturday,June 17: At approximately
650 miles, the expedition has reached an
important point on its journey to the
Arctic. By the time we leave Yellowknife,
we will have been on our way nearly a
month. Conditions have been ideal most
of the way and the weather across Great
Slave Lake was perfect. (Sir Alex must be
fuming in his grave with envy.)
All members of the expedition are
quite eager to complete the last leg of our
run on Great Slave Lake and to finally
paddle into the current ofDeh Cho •· the
Big River.
rene, micro-bacteria attacking molecules at their ends only. So there are two
vulnerable points in these polymers,
whether the molecular weight is 1000
or 1 million. The effective concentration of biodegradable entities therefore
decreases rapidly with increasing molecular weight (i.e. 2 per thousand in
the first, and 2 per million in the second
case), and this relationship is amply
borne out by the persistence of plastic
waste.
The second factor to be considered
is that the probability ofattack by microorganisms increases rapidly, if the polymer contains polar groups, e.g. hydroxyl or acid. The polar nature of the
group is associated with slight differences in electrical charge between the
atoms making up the group. e.g. in the
hydroxyl group, the oxygen atom becomes slightly negatively charged,
while the hydrogen atom is slightly
positively charged. In the case of polyethylene and polystyrene there are no
such polar groups. These polymers are
neutral (a non-polar), being composed
of only carbon and hydrogen atoms,
which have very similar electrical characteristics when bonded together. So
these materials are not susceptible to
bio-degradation.

VOL I NO I

LAKEHEAD UNIVERSITY,

By the time the students of
Lakehead University read this
edition of The Argus, the newly elected counci I Iors have already taken their respective
positions on the A.M.s. Counci I. The election of the ten
individuals (five from Arts,
two from Science and three
from the University Schools)
has brought the total representati on of this body to
twenty-three under president
Wayne Tocheri.

THE NEW LOOK.
Life in the university residence has taken or.... ··- .•
dimension this year . . .girls! All moments aren't as
studious and serious as the mood in which Argus photographer Tom McLeod caught Shelby Furuya of Nir'
go_n ahove.
More pictures on residence life can be
found on page 8.

ARGUS--A NEW BEGINNING
THE ARGUS is the beginning of a lasting tradition
for a blossoming Lakehead University. As our University takes the step into newer and . broader fields of
education, so too will this tabloid attempt to soar towards new horizons.
THE ARGUS will attempt not only to report the news,
but also to add various dimensions of reality to items.
We will attempt also to be the beacon • of the student
body, and threby supposedly we shall radiate outwards
to Canada the new and vital life of this rapidly expanding
educational centre.
Our staff this semester are basically novices at this
business. Our editorial' staff is really experiencing its
first traumatic sessions as students creating a new format. Therefore, although we realize that mistakes will
appear, we ask the student body to gird their loins and
pray (curse the verb) for a general enlightenment of this
editorial staff.

OCTOBER 14, 1966

Ans candidates in the
A.M.S. Election were Don
Cordingley (1) Mike Wainwright (111), Jack Lemmon
(11), Bob Jordan (11), Natalie Sadowski (1), John Howard (1) and Peter McCormack (1). As a result of
student voting, Messieurs
Wainwright, Jordan, Lemmon, Cordingley, and Miss
Sadowski are the new Arts'
Councillors.
Surprisingly enough, the
two nominees from Science,
Rick Marwood (1) ano Wendy Ticknor (1) won by ac- 1
claimation. The University
Schools were well represented in the election in the persons of: Don Budkley (Forestry 11), Steve Gundry
(Forestry 1), Helen Haavisto (Bus, Ad. I), Fred Perin (Forestry 11), Doug Robson (Bus. Ad. I), Dave Sulpher (Bus. Ad. I), and Lyle

Student-Directory editor,
Joe Danis, has stated that
student directories should be
completed within two weeks
of this newspaper publication
date.

A forty percent turnout of
Lakehead University Students has chosen the name of
the Student Athletic teams as
the NOR'WESTERS.
Elections on Monday October 3, also decided the
name of this newspaper.
The •NoR'WESTERS" was
considered a favourite by
191 of 509 voters.
The name ARGUS received 255 votes of a possible
509. The AURORA with 156
votes, placed second to the
ARGUS, The MEDIUM, drew
98 votes.

TEA FOR TWO MEANS THE FLY AND YOU

The Flies Of. (Both) Sexes Are Upon
By DUFF DUNCAN
There is a serious sex
problem on our campus. Overpopulation threatens. Sex
and promiscuity are running
rampant in the cafeteria ...
In short, the flies are
taking overt
Brash blue-bottomed buzzers have been strutting
their exotic mating dances

through the relish and mustard pots in the cafeteria
this fall much to the chagrin of the meet a pal for
lunch bunch. At first they
were just a nuisance but last
week their numbers rose
sharply. This week it was
a roaming orgy with flies
reproducing at will and cavoning openly in defiance of
the university's long tradition of mid-Canada puritanism. Favorite item on the
menu was Shoo-Fly Pie and
one student summed up the
jeneral feeling when he said:
I didn't mind th~m eating
my sandwich buf when they
start butting in on the conversation. . . now that's
going too farl"
Who is responsible for the
flies?
Director of Physical Plant
Claude Smith clawed his way
from under a desk-high pile
of parking lot complaints to
inform the Argus that his
left-hand man, Peter (Salty)

Umbriaco was makingapersonal study of the sex problem. The Argus agreed that
Peter should be an expert
?n sex after his recent
over-exposure' in the student yearbook.
Mr. Umbriaco revealed
the first draft of his study,
'The Sex Life of the Fruit
Bread Fly' to the Argus but
admitted he was ready
to trade in his Black Flag
for a white flag. His brilliantly conceived plan to put
salt peter and birth control
pills in the relish and mustard had drawn a mixed reaction. Peter complained
bitterly about the interference from Roman Catholics
and admitted he was frankly puzzled by the senate's
attitude. The salt peter didn't
stop the flies but the behavior of students and their
sudden interest in studying
so impressed this august
body that they promptly suggested compulsorary daily

doses. The student NOP
movement spokesman, after
a serious study lasting 90
seconds, said that whatever
anyone wanted to put in the
mustard was alright so long
as it was universal.
The only group happy with
the fly situation was Professor Orr and his biology
department. They have scheduled field classes in the
cafeteria and the residence
cafeteria all next week.
Versa Food manager Bob
Gude (does it rhyme with
food?), a newcomer to the
campus, was embarrassed
by all the fuss.
•it just prove how gude
the fude is,• he rationalized. "It's crude, rude and
lude of the flies to carry
on in this way but our fude
does put you in the mude to
be wude."
Meanwhile -that man of action, AMS president Wayne
Tocheri has taken the bull
by the horns, or if you pre-

fer, the fly by the wings.
Through his bloodline contacts in the Cosa Nostra he
has sent for a notorious' fly
killer from Chica O a distant relative of Bu:s•Moran
But until he arrives th;
cry down our sacred halls
is not 'Let' 8 have a cuppa
coffee'
It's ·•come

A PLEA FOR

UNITY
•Together we stand; divided we fan•.
perhaps it would be advisable for all Canadians to
stop and consider this statement before they try to tear
apan what our forefathers have staked their lives on
in building.
During the weekend of Sept. 30-0ct. 2, delegates
to the Northwestern Ontario Indian Conference heard
guest speakers voice opinions that I feel, although the
intention is laudable. are potentially disruptive.
First the speakers emphasized that the Indian has received an unfair image from history texts. John Kelly,
teacher at the Indian Day School, Northwest Bay, said
it •is difficult to build op their pride as human beings
when they see themselves represent~d in history books
as savages. I think his sentiment is well founded for
it is true that the Indian must live with a certain stigma
due to poorly-reported events of the past.
However the Indian is not the only racial group to
suffer from adverse publicity. What about those wicked
French who collaborated against the poor defenceless
English? (Of course French texts take a slightly different stand(). Then what about those nasty old Germans
that occupied Poland. Because history books condemned
them, all Germans are condemned even though some
modern historians claim that Europe•s policy toward her
in the 30's was definitely not one of appeasement. But
this is not a political column.
With this pan of the address I'm in complete accord..What I find harmful is the encouragement of lndi~ns
t0, in effect, break away from Canada and form a country
of themselves. At no place is mention made of any son
of political affiliation with the federal government. I
don't want to be misunderstood as taking exception to
one minc,rity group but rather I wish to point out a
growing tendancy toward disunity.

CO-OPERATION URGED
This type of separatist thinking, while inevitable, nevertheless is very dangerous. At the very time when our
country's foundations are being threatened by ineptitude
on the pan of our leaders, Canadians should be seeking
ways of closer co-operation rather than ways to pull
away from this structure we call a colllltry. Generally
speaking, our country is being unwisely manoeuvred by
our politicians and it would be natural, in our frustration, to take matters into our own hands. But it
ture leaves a bit to be desired but it. is at least a structure and this is superior to utter chaos. In days gone
by, no doubt, the road to confederation must have seemed
impeded by insurmountable onstacles. Yet here we have
a sprawling nation of which we can all be justly proud.
Canada is not bicultural; it is multicultural. It is
comprised of Italians, Ukranians, Slovaks, Africans.
Greeks, Asians and, of course. Indians. Someday, I
pray, it will be one mighty Canadian nation with everyone pulling together toward a common goal rather
than the tug-of-war chaos that now exists. A land
it will be where new legislation Will •not be viewed
suspiciously as a concession to one particular province,

HOPE IN YOUTH
Perhaps I"m somewhat of an idealist but I sincerely
feel that the future holds promise of just such a dream.
For I see in the younger generation a group that is more
liberal in its thinking; it looks at a person for what. not
who, he is. It is open-minded; it hasn't formed unyielding prejudices and then crept away into a shell. With
every succeeding generation of removal from the native
stock the strict racial bonds are being relaxed and the
various peoples are mtxJ.ng.
Yes, I believe that unity is not merely some highsounding but empty word. It can, it will, it must work!
Only by joint action will this unity be effected. Obviously,
biased and separatist thinking ls not good and can not
be allowed to exist.
Canada will stand boldly. We shall not divide. We
shall not fall!

The white minority in Rhodesia has acclaimed rebel Prime Minister Ian Smith.
At a conference in Bulawavo on Seotember
24,500 delegates of the Rhodesia Front--·
Smith's pany--voted unanimously to support Smith and his cabinet in theirmanagement to U.D.I. (Unilateral Declaration of
Independence ) and handling of the country's
affairs since then. Independence from Great
Britain was declared on November ll last
year.
Up to now, all British efforts to topple
the illegal Smith administrationhavefailed.
Economic sanctions were applied to Rhodesia, but these are reported to have had
little effect on the Rhodesian economy.
Great
harm could be done to the
~conomy
if
sanctions were intensified by. for example, Britain's calling in
the U.N. for sanctions to be made mandatory, instead of voluntary as at present.
Realizing this. Prime Minister Smith is
playing for time by holding discussions with
British Ministers in Salisbury. These discussions aim ostensibly at finding a basis
for negotiations which, it is hoped, would
end the rebellion.
Yet it seems most unlikely that anybasis
for negotiation will be found. Britain has
declared that she Will negotiate only with a
broadly-based government which will assure eventual political control by the ma-

jority--Rhodesia s four , million blaclr,. .
Smith, on the other hand, insists that government be by the minority--the 220,000
whites. lf both parties hold fast to these
opposing views, there can be no basis for
negotiation.
Perhaps British Prime Minister Wilson
realises this, for the week before the Bulawayo conference, the British Ministers in
Salisbury warned. that Fhodesia would have
to recognize British ~utbority by the end of
the year or suffer the &lt;'.onsequences. It is
difficult to imagine thet1e consequences
being any worse than mandatory sanctions
by the U.N. I cannot imagine Mr.Wilson"s
employing military means to end the rebellion, as some African states would have
him do.
Britain, by her inaction in stopping the
crisis at its very inception, has displayed
little determination to topple Mr. Smith.
Indeed, BI'litain bas permitted the rebellion
to continue for so long that many people
have become resigned to white minority
government in Rhodesia.
I should not be surprised to see Britain
recognise the Smith administration as the
de facto government in Rhodesia. Such an
action would be to the detriment of Britain and would have serious reprecussions
over the whole of the African continent.

EXPO '67 IS .CANADA!
The following is the first in a series of
feature anicles on EXPO' 67 to appear
in this newspaper;
By OWEN MARKS
Oscar Wilde has stated that life is one
long path of strife, with •only a few white,
broken blossoms of joy scattered on that
trail. Expo is such a broken blossom for
Canada..
No one will dispute the fact that Canada
could use more internal harmony. Officials
in Montreal hope that Expo will provide its
country with the required elixer.
And even now, one cannot help but be impressed with the idealism, hope and the
magnitude of this World's Fair. Half-completed Russian, American.British, Arab,
Australian, German. Czcneslovaldan, and
Canadian pavilions are slowly rising out
of the mud of the island, taking form. and
bringing the world of 1967 to Canada. On
the surface, nothing appears amiss. The
opening date of April 28.1967 should see
all pavilions completed.

But behind the scenes, one receives the
impression that Expo officials are losing
their cool.
Financially. Expo will cost $330,000,000.
Canada hopes to lose only $30,000.000,
•an $80.000,000 birthday present.• But
repoi;.ts have it the sales promotions in
the Stati... • ~ve been extremely disappointing. It ca
.iy be hoped that this situation
will be rectified.
There are rumours, also, to the effect
that the .:i1iparat1st Movement is planning
to set off a few bombs just as Expo opens,
thereby sending it into financial ruin. Talk
of depression in 1968 is another cheery
tidbit.
But Expo has its comedal aspects also.
Isreali and Arab pavilions are on opposite
.sides of the site, while American and
Russian pavilions are attempting to outdo
each other in size, grandeur. and cost.
But for all the prophecies of doom, Expo
is still there in Montreal. Despite the attempts of lesser men, Expo represents
Canada, not Montreal. Yes, Expo is a grand
tribute for a nation that could have been.

Having read the first edition of the Universitynewspaper, I found extensivefood

�Meet a Draft Dodger

UNCLE SAM WANTS ME!

FROM

THE RYERSONIAN

By DON COLBOURME
•we are supposed to be
fighting for freedom yet we
don't have any ourselves•
stated Greg G. in an exclusive Toronto interview
with this Argus reporter.
• I haven't reached the
point of burning this yet he
said, indicating his draft
card. On it (shades of South
Africa!) are printed the
words •The law requires
you to have this certificate
in your personal possession
at all times.•
Greg is probably typical of
the small army of •draft
dodgers• which has invaded
our border cities as a result of the American aggression in Vietnam.
He is a graduate in psychology from the University
of Illinois and his home,
which he never expects to
see again, is in Hartford
Connecticut. He is now employed by the University of
Toronto and lives in a furnished apartment adjacent to
•the village• in Toronto.
Even before his final
exams this last spring he received an order to report for
his physical examination.
After having it deferred once
he skipped the country. He
is now classified as •delinquent•, a legitimate •draftdodger•. His parents have
received progressively more urgent letters ordering

Uke It's Progress Man!

SEXY SONGS OF DRUGS
Bv CHUCK GRIEVE

Sexy songs of drugs
What about it. Sensationalism? Perhaps - but man,
if you feel like singing songs
of seduction, then like go
ahead and do it. People get
mad over stuff like that but
don't blow your cool, because
that stuff sells, and I mean
sells. All you've got to do is
sit tight until they ban it,
and then you've got it made,
because once it's banned,
like there's no holding it
back. It's not the lyrics that
count, man, but they sure
help you count - money that
is.
Some joker blew the whole
scene wide open a couple of
weeks ago. It's a real shame,
you know that it happened
that way. Sex and drugs have
been around a long time, and
there's no question as to how
long they' re going to stay
on the scene, because, man,
sex, is life and drugs are
progress, and any cat knows
that progress comes with
life, but progress has to cut
down a lot of old grass to
live. When you get right
down to it, il s their own
fault, I mean all this mess
about teenies taking trips,
smoking the weed, and
making out like everybody
else does, because this
comes from education, and
they sure do push Eddy.
All we do is write, because
that's how we live, Just like
the president of the biggest
blue chip on the market.
Nobody pulls his stuff apart
and says it's so god-awful
and it's going to corrupt
gummers. But man, old
prexy squeezes the cash, and
every strike against his type
just raises prices, and
everything' s mortgaged, and
there's six kids to feed, and
the old man can"t claim two

mouths on his income tax
this year, and like he sweats
his rear off, and only goes
farther in debt. What about
it? What about old prex himself? He works hard, plays
golf, drin~ good booze, but
he lives, and so do his kids.
But the gummers, whether
they've got it roughtoreasy,
they' re all the same. They
want to get away because it
stinks--like the whole scene
is rotten. And stuff, that's
the escape!
But hold it. What escape?
Why run from all the great
things lying at your feet?
There• s that great big allowance you got that's bigger than the grocery bill,
there's the clothes you got
that fill two closets, the
big new car that the old man
gets to use once in a while,
the joints to spend money in,
the dolls to make out with,
the guys to spend cash on
you--you name it. Even we
writers are pounding away
at the basic concepts, or what
used to be the basic concepts, of sex and drugs. Everything is going for you.
What's the matter?
Escape means fea~ fear of
that great sexual
revolution • and the fantastic
slackness of people you look
up to. Too much, too quickly,
that's the trouble. And the
songs reflect it all., down
to the last detail. Yes reflect it. That's what is, and
that •s what sells. What's
here is here, and what's
past can't be changed. So
lay off this notion of analyzing songs and censoring records. Look to the future,
man, to life and frogress.

not just the Viet Nam tragedy nor American militarism which Greg rejects. He
thinks that the main reason
he has left his country at this
time is psychological. He believes that military service
has no purpose, and requires
too much submission and
humiliation. The universal
draft involves the induction
of too many men who are
not cut out for the military.
The fact that he will probably never risk entering the
U.S. again does not bother
him, •1 don't have a career
and don't want one.•
When questioned on the
Vietnam issue he expressed
guarded •sympathy for the
american Cause• but asserted that since coming to
Canada he has been regularly involved in Anti-war protests. He believes, • Johnson

He says he is •not really8
,:roud to be an American and
would ratherhavebeenborn
in Canada.• He thinks Canadians are on the whole more
politically-minded than his
people. Americans are apathetic because their politics
are cut and dried.
He states that there is no
danger in his remaining here
and that he can't be forced
to return. He encountered no
trouble in crossing the border as visitor in June but
believes it has since become
standard practice to check
draft cards at the border.
He asserts that the U.S.
is headed in the direction of
becoJl"i.ng
a militaristic
polict- state. He summed up
the common people's reaction to the growing protests
in two examples. •T. V. coverage of protest marches is
met in a bar by 50% of the
people demanding that all the
demonstrator be shot. However in a university environment, 50% of the people
are sympathetic, particularly the faculty and senior students. Freshmen and sophomores tend to be more
naive, more prepared to accept everything they hear.•
Greg admits that the U.S.
is not defending democracy
in Viet Nam and that his
countrymen are dying for big
American business interests.
Canadians have a respon...
sibility. Thousands of young
Americans would seek refuge here, if they knew Canada offered such a convenient haven.
It is reass,µ.ring that the
greatest propaganda machine in history has failed
and that there are still men
like Greg who feel they have
the right to challenge the
status quo.

YOUNG
IDEAS
By Peter Young
IRHIIIH-1111111-HRIIIIIRIIIIIUIIIIIUIIIHRIIIIIIII

HOCKEY,BASKETBALLREADY
As the month of October edges on, both varsity sports
at Lakehead University have swung into action on a full
time basis. Due to a new conference rule, head coach
Henry Akervall will be forced to stay away from the
Port Arthur Arena, home practice zone for the L.U.
Nor'Westers Hockey team. But don't worry fans, this
will be upheld only until the third week in October when
Akervall will step in at the reins of one of the best
university hockey teams in Canada. Until this time 6566 veterans Lorne Gander, Claire Battiston, John Stefiszyn, and Dennis Ollnik will handle the more than 40
hopefuls training for the 20 positions on the varsity
Nor'Westers. All of last season's players, especially
Gander and Battiston, looked impressive in the first few
practices and with a few rookies should mold into a particularly strong blue machine.
Meanwhile head coach Bruce Bristowe is taking his
varisty Baskethallers through the paces at Hammerskjold High School. Bristowe reports that at least 20
experienced players, including 10 veterans, have been
attending practices with hopes of making the final team
of 15. S.A.S. vice-president Ray Halverson, John Sihvonen, and Bob Elvin have been hitting the hoop with
precision as have guards Myron Warywoda and Dave
Parsons.
S.A.S. president Chuck Sameluk reports that the L.U.
rowing team has been training hard in preparation for
next weekend's regatta in Minneapolis-St. Paul. Lakehead will send an eight-and a four-man crew against
the best in the northern states.

ON THE LIGHTER SIDE

Chuck Sameluk finally met with fate after three years
of crowding the LU squash courts. Sameluk, who was
one of the members of last year's Ontario Champions
from Lakehead accidently stepped in front of professor
Bruce Bristowe' s raquet and then trailed blood to the
doorstep of St. Joseph's Hospital where he was given
seven stitches ...after the first few practices, hockey
player Lorne Gander exclaimed that his missing tonsils
don't seem to be affecting his play as much as the 15
pounds he lost playing golf this summer ..• good to see
Mustang Fraser Jarvis umpiring high school football
games to work his way through college ...! can't say
that Claire Battiston's slap shot is looking better this
year because he still shoots too fast for the naked eye
to see ... Don't forget that you can now pick up your
S.A.S,-approved Squash Raquets at Eric Flint's Sports
Shop on Brock street in Fort WilliamoooChuck Sameluk
says that he'll try presenting athletic films only once
more to the student body unless they receive a better
turnout than last month's flop ...this month the S.A.S.
will show one film on the Indianapolis 500 and a second
on the 1965 Stanley Cup Finals .•. we're proud to have
children of two former N.H.L. stars attending L.U.
this year .•• Pat Lund is the daughter of Pentti Lund who
is currently sports-editor of the Daily Times Journal
and a former star with the New York Rangers and Boston
Bruins, while Lionel Laprade is the nephew of Edgar
Laprade who now operates a sports shop in Port Arthur
and is a former all-star with the New York Rangers ...
Argus sport• s writer Larry Hebert was presented with
a plaque by F .W. mayor Ernie Reed last week as coach
of the Canadian champion senior little leaguers who represented Canada at the Little World Series in Des
Moines, Iowa in August ... the Port Arthur Mustangs look
extremely strong for the L.R.F.U. playoffs but you can't
count out the rookie laden Redskins.

Students, attempted to choose names that has as many
of the following characteristics as possible:
1) a connection with the area
immediate to the University
2) a connection with athletics
3) originality in the sense
that the word was not
commonly used for teams
4) easily said
Only 13 names were entered despite the promise of
$100 for the submittor of the
winning name. Of these ~ix
came from people not directly involved with Athletics:
two of them, Nomads and
Blue Flacons, were on the
ballot.
The rejects were: Animals
(reason apparent); Centennials ( good for one year
only); Olympians (too much
connection with our National
team); Trojans (too plodding)· Thunderers (?); Superiors (suggestive of Superior, Wisconsin); Argus
Blues (which in time it was
felt would shorten to Blues,
the name of University of
Toronto teams); and Argus
(what iij the plural?).
Nor'Westers, the name
finally chosen. was submitted by the SAS and the Athletic Department and received more than twice as many
votes as its nearest rival
Lakers (which incidentally
was also running as an SASAthletic Department suggestion. Obviously the • Argus•
was blind to student opinion
and the ability of the SAS!
Thanks to everyone who
expressed his or her opinion. We feel that •Nor' Westers• is a good namefor
our teams. We hope you do.
See you at the varsity
games!

a few carpenters, drive a
few nails, or saw a few
boards. All good exercises
for developing musculartriceps and biceps. Another
piece of valuable equipment,
for developing bulging leg
muscles, is one iron shoe-not two, just one modernly
equipped without straps for
tying the shoe to one's foot.
Rumour has it that this is
a magic shoe that produces
rippling leg muscles when
you pick it up in your hand.
Oh yes. There is also a
hand roller weighing approximately 200 lbs.,whichcanbe
pulled and pushed along the
cement floor to develop tremendous calf muscles. This
last piece of equipment

comes to us compliments of
the carpenters.
But there is a warning in
this room. At one end there
is aNOPARKINGSIGNwhich
undoubtedly means to warn
athletes not to trespass because the dangers involved
in training plainly exceed the
benefits that can be derived.
You, the student, must
promote the need for this
training room, and you must
point out, to the administration, the need of this room
to supplement the already
limited athletic facilities.
The student's voice is
powerful but it must be expressed. repeatedly and
loudly before any action will
be taken.

S.A.S. HOLDS FIRST MEETING
The S.A.S. formed from 26
members of the student body
held their first meeting Wednesday Oct. 5. It was a long
3-hour affair, but the time
was well-spent with many
important decisions being
made.
The S.A .S. decided to give
each representative a sport
over which he is given
control. Thus eventually
each sport will have a committee in charge of that sport
the committee to be headed
by its' representative in the
S.A.S.
Another major decision of
the meeting was the announcement that a chief justice.
to preside over the S.A.S.
meetings, is to be chosen
by the executive from the
nominees who were not voted
into council.

I see your throbbing paper mill

And countless annular rings spin my thoughts

And naked hearths of years unborn....... ..

•To be Jewish is to suffer:•, a neat appelation for the
theme of grief which wends its funereal way through
most of Bernard Malamud's novels and stories to a
burial at sea, the sorrowful sea in which Malamud
himself is the onmipresent sponge who soaks the strife
of life into his cellular body, briefcase, and fountainpen. (The very ink suffers.)
However, there are those few who are Gentiles and
do suffer. For example, Roy Hobbs, a nineteen-year-old
natural at baseball who tweaks the left breast of Harriet
Bird, a stranger, and soon after catches a silver bullet
with his stomach, much to the delight of Miss Bird.
And fifteen years 1a·t er there is Iris, ·a big..boned, blackhaired beauty who stands up in the bleachers and is hit
by rookie Hobb•s home-run ball, much to the dismay of
both Roy and Iris.
These and other sufferers (like •pOJ',.,• Fisher, of
•Fisher's Fandango") are presented in The Natural,.,
a book about suffering. But it is suffering with a purpose. In the words of Iris, •suffering is what brings us
toward happiness.• In the words of Roy Hobbs, •never,
never tweak the (leftJ&gt; breast of a stranger.•

The Hostage, by the Irish
playwright Brendan Behan,
will be produced at the University Centre Theatre, Thursday, Friday and Saturday,
Oct. 14, 15 and 16.
It has proven one of the
most challenging ventures
which Cambrian Players of
the Lakehead have ever undertaken. The plot recounts ·in
episode from the activitiP.."
of the outlawed, undergrow~:..
Irish Republican Army, which has kidnapped a young
English soldier as a hostage
for one of their own men
whom the British have imprisoned and are about to
hang. The action is tense,
the atmosphere ominous, the
outcome tragic, the message
passionate.
The challenge is to create
and sustain such a mood, for
Behan has set the action in
a Dublin house of ill-fame,
where dwell a group of characters of whom the prostitutes and ex-convicts are
perhaps the most respect-

The Canadian Union of Students strives to make the
views and opinions of students across our nation felt
and respected by the people
of Canada, and to make them
more aware of the fact that
higher education is a necessity and a boon to our
country. CU S unites students
of differing political and religious persuasions, varying
ethnic origins, and widelyseparated academic disciplines, professional studies,
and cultural backgrounds.
The basis for unity is their
common studenthood.
CUS is a nationalfederation
of more than forty-four students' councils in the universities, colleges, and institutions of Canada. The students become members through their students' council
which is responsible for C US
and which undertakes to establish CUS committees on
each campus to carry out the
work of this vast student union.
The decision-making body
of CUS is the NationalConggress, held annually. The
