Volume 1, No. 1 UNIVERSI‘TY OF WATERLOO, WATERLOO, ONTARIO November 4, 1%’

TS This is just a note to let you,

the students, know what has hap- pened so far concerning student government.

On Wedheaday, Oct. 12, the re- presentatives of each of the facul- ty student societies met. At this meeting temporary officers were appointed to conduct matters of immediate importance. Plans were also made for a newspaper and a student directory. Hs time was short, another meeting was pro- posed for Oct. 19.

Before the 19th, the Faculty advisors gave s ome suggestions concerning the constitution.

Notices were posted, asking all those, interested in helping to form a Students’ Council to meet in

Room 137 at ‘7 o’clock on Wed., Oct. 19,. At this, meeting Brendan O’Connor was asked to be the editor(gf the school newspaper. A board of publications was set up with Gord Van Fleet in charge. A constitution committee, composed of Nick Hathaway, Terry Jones, Ed Rice, and myself, was set up to write a new constitution with the Faculty’s suggestions in mind. This has been done.

This proposed constitution will be submitted at the next meetin!g of the temporary Students’ Coun.- cil. The date and place of this meeting will be posted on the bulletin boards and I hope to see you at this meeting.

The question of “When is the paper coming out?” has by this time degenerated into “Are we going to have a paper this year?” However, before all memory of what a student news- paper is has faded altogether from yo,ur minds, we bring you

’ this encouraging sign,

This, students, is your newspaper, the first Ff what we hope will be a long, successful, informative and, perhap#s, influential series. From the Engineering Students “Enginews” of last year we have developed into a University-wide publi- cation with sections from Arts, Science and Engineering with their respective editors. (See masthead for full layout of staff).

As you will have noticed, this publication comes under an empty title head. This is not so much from a lack of titles, rather from/a superfluity of same, but we want to see the name of this paper come from and with the approval of the student body. If you have any ideas on what you would like to see the newspaper called, let us have them. Bear in mind that this newspaper will probably outlive most of us both dn the campus and even in life itself. Its name should be a fitting example of the maturity and ideals of university student: from the University of Waterloo. For every student who sub- mits a name there is the chance that if chosen he will carry the knowledge throughout future years that this’ name was his, his idea, his creation, his contribution to the fo,unding of a new University. (Besides these inherent spiritualistic merits there will also be a materialistic reward of five dollars to the person submitting the name chosen for the newspaper.)

Two names are already in my mind as having been sub- mitted. “THE CORYPHAEUS” which is the Greek word for Leader. “NUNTIAT” which is the Latin for It Announces. If you have not any ideas of your own but you feel one of these deserves the title let us know either by a letter to the editor or just write your choice on a slip of ,paper and post it in the Newspaper mail box.

Since the start of the term a tentative Students’ Council or Steering Council has been convened by the heads of the faculty societies or councils and an Acting Executive formed to see to the drawing up of a constitution, distribution of funds, etc. When the Constitution is drawn up and approved an election will be held to choose representatives to the Coun- cil and the Council will have the direct authority of the student body. Meanwhile we should stand behind the Steer ing Committee, giving them every help and support till the constitution is drawn up and elections can be held.

A committee has been ‘formed to discriminate againsi “outlaw jackets”. Rules for jackets with their accompanying insignia will be reviewed shortly.

One more thing should be mentioned at the close of thi: editorial. All articles for the paper must have the writer’: name on them. Letters to the Edito,r may be printed over E “nom de plume”. But the name of the sender must be in the editor’s hands for filing purposes.

’ A university is known by the accomplishments of itr graduates. A graduate is but an extension of the student Are you ever responsible for anything which, if done b: students of another university, would make you lose respec of the students of ’ - I : -?iversity?

“THIS FREEDOM” It is a matter of fact, not fiction,

nat vast number:; of African lack peop1.e are tf?rrified at the nought of independence for Kenya. This “freedom” Her Ma- zsty’s government intends to be- tow in all good faith, but in ig- orance of conditions in Africa nd the ways of its inhabitants.

Only a small minority of the lopulation., the noisy self -seekers fter power, are shouting the dds for “freedom”; and they are Loing so in order that they will be ble to usurp power over the oasses, and fill their pockets with he spoils. Bribery and corruption re even now rife in many ifrican circles.

Thousands of Africans are cry- ng #out that they do not want this freedom” for they know full well he barbarous’ consequences - ribal warfare, en,mities and per- onal vendettas in which multi- udes would die, as they died in ndia and other plalces and! are lying in the Congo now.

However, the warning of thou- ands goe.s unheeded, while others :eep quiet, afraid of reprisals by he vicious thugs who follow the lower-seekers. No one outside Africa can visualize the degree to VlliC5 f ,727 and I;lti;rAiidation inflti . ?n;ce the lives of the multitudes in <enya today. The Trade Uniolnz ntimidate the farm workers, whc lare not resist. Intimidation and lhysical violence are exercised against foremen to limit produc- ion Unfortunately, the world lress is not imeregted in suck:

;hings. They are too matter of iadt; they want sensationalism. Two thousand loyalists may be Pouly murd!ered during the Mau- Mau; the press is not interested. 4 handful of depraved lunatics die at HOI!A’ (Mau-Mau detention zamp); this makes world news.

It would appear that the world has yet to learn that when “free- dom” comes to an immature people and the old restraints are weakened or removed,, chaos anid utter degradation quickly follow.

Christianity and ethics are on the wane, and parts of Africa - Kenya being but one-are be- coming citadels of anti-Christ, places devoid of human virtues.

Even now, only a few weeks after the London Conference, there is trouble. Fighting is breaking out all over ;the country. The’ man in the street is calming to think that the party with the biggest fist will win. Is this the demoicracy the British govern- ment recommends for the millions in the colonies ? Is this the “free- dom” it bestows - freedom from law and order and the decencies of a civilizeda life?

These facts are not known to the remainder of the world be- czusc thzj* lia*vt> nut been ttild, ‘The press rarely gets hold oJ them because the intimidated arc to frightened to tell. We, who live in Ke:nya, know the’m to be true because we live here. They are E part of our daily lives and of the lives of our African friends whc confide in us. “Kenyan”

Most of you have probe: :I ,- lead a letter, posted on built .,’ joards throughout the schc : rom the Students Council. Ho:: ver, I would like to repeat se I !ral points and also talk abo I leveral other topics.

First, the complete Student Iouncil organization is temporar, mtil such time as a C’on&itutior s set up and adopted by a vote >f the students. At this time an election will ttake place, in which he students may choose their own government. Until the election, I lope all students will offer their suggestions for the Constitution md also about any other facet of ;he government.

Within a week or two I will be Zalling a meeting, open to all students, to go over the constitu- ;ion. A.t this time each clause will be read and comments can oe made by the s’tudents and ex- ?lanations will be given by the :onstitution committee. After th.i :opies will be printed and place t in the commoa room and librar ,s

Finally, we have a chance t ? set up a system of student goverr nent without the fear that, : might collapsle because of feders tion or non-federation.

Several new clubs have startea onI campus and these are a grea asset to the university. Althoug. mr;st’ clubs need funds, I feel : unwise for the! S. C. to grant an;. money to’ clubs until such tim as a permanent S. C. is elected b; the students. But there are! man;, other ways of raising mon’ey suci; as club dances, etc. All new club: on campus have the best wishe- of the 55. C.

Engineers ‘63 Win Hoat Trophy

In conclusion I would like t say that this newsptaper is th- students’ paper as we have paii for it. However, to make it a gooc paper, let’s have lots of volunteer- to help our editors.

Paul Dirksen, A,cting Chairmal Waterlob Warrior Weekend Two weeks ago] the populace of

Waterloo and those from Kitch- ner fortunate enough to be on the :ity’s back streets . . . thanks to he Kitchener Police Traffic Divi- ;ion . . . witnessed U of W’s first ‘ootball weekend ‘parade. This was ,he opening of what proved to be 1 very succe’ssful weekend despite #he football game tally between ,he - “MucMaster Murderauders” md the’*Waterloo Warriors.

Floats from St. Jerome’s Col- .ege, W.U.C. and U. of W. made up a parade of twelve entries which was highlighted by the presence of Miss Canada. A chariot (stolen from the props ;upply of “Ben Hur”) added to the glitter and gaiety of the occa- ;ion and looked like an easy win- ner. However, since the1 floats were judged according to the in- genuity of ‘idea, design and con- struction, t-he trophy was awarded to the Engineering Class. of ‘63. St. Jerome’s College and U.W.C. Fresh floats were chosen second and third respectively.

The weekend was climaxed by dancing to the music of the George Kadwell Trio. “Souvenirs’ from various floats were in evi- dence throughout the evening and the huge boot from the prize- winner served as a centrepiece oJ the dance floor. Needless\ to say that the gym was packed. In view of this, each couple was res’tricted to a maximum dancing area oij two floor tiles. A consequent rise in room temperature was recordec and a hot time was had by all!

,4s there seemed to be objet. tions’, demolition of the gym’: west wall to admit the giant foot ball was not carried out. Tht article in question was last seer being propelled in the direction o: Waterloo Park by a herd o: youngsters and looking more like a brown centipede than a football

I should like to thank all thost who helped to make WAWAWEZ a success. Well done! Let’s make next year’s football weekend ever better. Glenn Ll. Hawley,

WAWAWEE Chairman

sPoRTs. 8 i .I WARRIORS (16) vs. CARLETON’ (8)

,;

The University of Waterloo Warrior.s la& weekend emerged victorious over Carleton College by a score of 16 60 8.

Although hampered by injuries, the Warriors used a combination of fine running plays made po,s- ;ible by the great play of their offensive line to defeat the Rav- ens,

The Warriors scored in the first quarter when Bob Schellenberg recovered a Raven fumble in the end zone. Dick Aldridge,&filling in at quarterback for the injured Max Gould, passed to Jim Hann in the end zone for the convert.

ENGI

This score was later matched by Carleton and the score remain- ed ‘7-7 until Aldridge threw a 310 yard pass into the end zone to Hann, who out-jumped three de- fenders to score the T.D. Dson Targosz converted and the score was 14-7 at the half.

In the second half, Hank Krzy- wicki kicked two singles and Carleton adided a single point of their own. The score remained 16-8 until the end of the game.

Coach Totzke and the Warriors, confident of finishing their season in winning form, meet R’.M.C. at Kingston this Saturday and on November 12th they play host to 0.A.C. of Guelph in their final game of the season.

Coach Totzke also has stated that basketball practices have started and that intramural sports will get under way next week. Varsity hockey practices com- mence November 10.

RUGGER The first game of the University

of Waterloo rugger team in To- ronto, against Varsity II was an encouraging and enthusiastic suc- cess. A crowd of several hundred saw Wat,erloo trounce Varsity 19-,5 on the back campus U. of T

The Waterloo team had bul three experienced players, bul some hard training and coaching on the techniques of the game produced a class of rugger thai

Bf the Waterloo supporters and the Queen’s University fans who threw in their support for the Waterloo pack. ’

The game started with a lot of spirit by the Waterloo boys which zulminated in two quick tries (3 pts. each) by Brendan O’Connor. Mike Goss tried the kick but nar- rowly missed each time. However he made up shortly after by kick- _ ing a penalty goal (3 pts.). In the second half two dazzling 65~ yd. runs by John Wesno left the To-_ ronto team staring and he sent Tony Hornung over for two touch- downs. Both of these were made good by Mike Goss, giving an ’ extra two points to each try. In the closing minutes, with one of Waterloo’s men off injured, T’o- ronto broke through the defense and, with the aid of a pipe band standing in the end zone, made their touchdown which they con- verted for their 51 points.

After the encounter Ontario played Quebec in the feature game of the day. Quebec defeated Ontario by 1 point.

At five o’clock a meeting was called of all universities. and col- leges with the formation of an inter-collegiate rugger league in mind. The basis of four partici- pants in the new league - Mc- Gill, Toronto, Queens and O.A.C., Guelph, was established. Water- loo asked to be admit,ted into, this leabue and was pr,omised an op- portunitly if it can make the fixtures in Kingston and Montreal. Fending examination of this pos- sibility but an’ticipating a favour- able result, Waterloo should! be starting in a “big five” inter- collegiate rugger league next fall. Here’s hoping.

Waterloo team: Mick Schankula, Kenny Jeanes, Ron Mucy, John Wesno, Bill Klaas, Brendan O’Connor, Gary Palen, George Ba,ird, Bob Tribe, Tony Hornung, Rodney Rourke, Frank Lesinak, Mike Goss, Earl Hoffman, Tom Wells.

ENClNEERlNG SOCIETY LECTION

ADVICE, TO THE NEEDY By George Bentley

dear George: I am 19 years old and am taking

an arts course at University and am afraid of the dark. I envision horrible monsters and ghosts when I lie in bed at night. I am actually scared stiff. Mr. George, am ,I being stupid or babyish or can this be cured?

Scared in the Dlark. Dear Scared:

You are being n’either babyish nor stupid. Ask your mother to put a dim light in your room at night. Many have the same prob- lem and have solved it this way - arts have a large enrollment.

* 4 Q

campaigns were the posters’which The election of the President of the United States is a trivial mat- ter compared to the election of the Executive of the University of of Waterloo Engineering Society. Three weeks ago, when the ques- tion arose, “Who for President?” it was Nick, not Nixon, who was being considered.

Nominations were held last spring with the following results: Nick Hathway and Mike Hribar were nominated for the office of President, Carl Hamacher and Dave Wallase for Second Vice- President, and John Phillips and Murray French for Treasurer. Bob Nash and Pete Mollard were deprived of the thrill of the rival- ry and the uncertainty of cam- paigning ,by being acclaimed to the offices of Secretary and First Vice-President respectively.

With elections slated for O!cto- ber 11, there was no time lost in beginning campaign procedures. Campaigning was carried out in a dignified manner. No babies (under 116) were kissed. No cigars were handed out (at least I didn’t receive one). I did receive a cup of coffee but I am not prepared to report whether business suddenly increased at the Clown Room. Campaign speeches were made on Thursday, October 6. These were not at all well attended, and “thanks” to the twenty-five who did show some interest.

The most striking aspect of the

decorated the walls of the school buildings, Some of these were in place on Regis*tration day. They showed imagination as well as artistic ability. They made in: teresting reading and the one in the Women’s Powder Room was particularly effective. .

Elections were held on October 11 by secret ballot. All engineer- ing studems had the right to vote except Freshmen. About 421% took advantage of this privilege.

In spite of the fact that his posters never actually stated for which position he was running, Nick Hathway was elected Presi- dent for the second year in a row. Carl Hamacher was elected S’ec- ond Vice-President.

According to statistics, 613.7% of all’ Univers:ity students read “Mad”. Therefore Murray French’s posters should have ap- pealed to 53.7% of the eligible voters. However after one draw and one tie-breaking election, John Phillips was elected Treas- urer by a narrow margin. Calcu- lation of error of the above as- sumption = - - - - No! This isn’t a formal report.

The first Engineering Society meeting of the year was] held on October 210. The new executive is a group that is out to get things done. At least it looks, that way from a woman’s point of view.

Annette Tilden.

Dear George: I have a very touchy problem.

Before I came to arts in U. I was going steady with a very nice girl. We both entered the same U. in the same class, and are still going stead,y. Now I’m stuck. I’d like to see some of the other girls I’ve met here and still not offend my steady. What in psychology’s name should I do? LA. Dear LA:

Perhaps you’ve don,e enough - hand her a copy of this paper.,

* * * Dear George:

My problem is an old-fa,shi,oned grandmother. When she saw my boy friend with his head in my lap she hit the ceiling. Sbe said that it wasI the most unlad,ylike thing she had seen in years and that my mother was out of her mind for permitting it.

What’s wrong with a boy rest- ing his head in a girl’s lap? I’m i-i, he’s 18. Hazel. Dear Hazel:

Nothing, but you chose a poor setting.

chorus of strong male voices. When a program has been built up there will be several conce\rts in the Kitchener-Waterloo area and in neighbouring communities. Two of these dates have been planned for the near future and others are being negotiated.

The most immediate problem facing this new organization is the lack of some strong robust male voices. Members are needed to round out some sections and to bolster others. To this end they are appealing to the engineers, whose membership in this new organizatio’n is practically non- existent. The club realizes that as it stands now, the rehearsal time is not compatible with the engineers timetable but if enough interest is shown, a mutually satisfactory rehearsal time could 0

be worked out. The Glee Club rehearses from 4 p.m. to approxi- mately 5.45 p.m. on Thursdays, so if you are at all interested, turn out* (even after 5 p.m., engineers) and lend your voices to the pro- ceedings. ‘GLEE CLUB NEEDS’ MEMBERS

For the past two weeks a Glee Club has been forming on the campus, and they need your sup- port. They are off to a good star1 as they have been fortunate ir obtaining the services of Mr. Paul Berg as director. Mr. Berg ha: been well known in this area for a number of years, listing among his credits the direction of the re- nowned Schneider Orpheus Mak Chair.

He has outlined a tentative re- pertoire of songs in the Mitck Miller and ‘other styles alsc designed to be sung by a robus

Under the enthusiastic guidance of Professor Miller, E,conomics Department, the University of Waterloo Film Society will be attempting to introduce a certain medium of culture to our campus, The Film Slociety is doing its ut- most to provide all interested per- sons with a well-balanced selec- tion of international films.

According to the latest reports from the Society, student interest in this latest innovation on cam- pus has) proven rather disappoint- ing. This is in direct contrast to interest shown by faculty mem- bers and other outsiders. This Society was formed primarily to promote STUDlENT interest in culture -or are you afraid a taste may spoil your appetite?

I might say here that it is also his intention to establish a dramatic societg in the near future which, with the help and support of in- terested students, should do much in the way of establishing a repu- tation for the University asI a’ hot- bed of budding Thespians.

It may be of interest to note here too that the Arts jackets pre- viously mentioned will soon be a reality as the council has accepted one of the, three bids submitted to them and as a result of this ‘a model jacket is being prepared for our approval.

As an Artsman, it is with no small degree of satisfaction and comfort that I see the new Arts Clouncil undertaking issues promptly and with apparent ease, thus substantiating the feeling that we have been judicious in our choice of representatives. I am sure they will have a succes,s- ful year, perhaps, even to the ex- tent of setting a high standard of student administration and repre- sentation for future councils. Good luck to them, the first Arts council in the history of this University.

We, Artsmen of this University, because of our small numbers thought it wise to organize quick- ly to ensure that we have a voice and some power to wield in this place of gray jacketed slide rule swinging individuals ,known for lack of a better name as engin- eers. After some hard grour& work tb,y Gary Palen, to whom we are indebted, an election was held. When all the promises hadI been heard, all the ballots cast and all the dust settled, the results were as follows: President: Terry Jones (more formally “Jonesy”), Vice- President: Judy B’ender, Sec.- Treas.: Elizabeth Cunningham, and Athletic Rep. Lloyd Niziol. In additi,on to the Arts Council proper, there were appointed two voting members to the Student Union, they being George Pollit and Mary Beth Boone.

Terry was elected on the basis of a six-lpoint program which he outlined in his campaign address saying he planned to: draw up a constitution for Arts, form a com- mittee to co-operate on the Uni- versity constitution, form a social activities committee, and investi- gate the’ purchase of Arts jackets.
