Inspector Miller of the Waterloo Regional Police of- fered advice to students walking home at night He suggested that dark streets be avoided, and that general common sense be utilized when venturing out at night. Miller also warned about the effects of blowing the safety issue out of proportion "I have worked three transit strikes in Toronto and did not notice an increase in sexual attacks or assaults. We must be careful not to over publicize any perceived danger. It could give the prospective per- petrators of crimes some ideas." The striking workers and the city seem to be far from a settle- ment, with the dispute centred around wage issues. Students who have purchased a November bus pass may receive a refund from the WLUSU Info Centre. The pass must be sur- rendered before a refund is given.

THE CORD WEEKLY

The world is a circus

* - Ever notice how George Bush looks just like Howard the airline pilot from the old (and superior) Bob Newhart Show? The U.S. has really degeneratednow, what with Howard and his running-mate, Eddie Haskell, poised to take the place of everyone's favorite B-movie actor. But may we expect Bruno Gerussi (or perhaps Relic?) in the Canadian Prime Minister's seat any time soon?

* - Shame on Sports Illustrated writer Rick Telander. In an article on sports in American prisons two weeks ago in that magazine, he makes reference to "Orwell's Brave New World." Tsk tsk. To translate this into the proper Canadian perspective, replace "Orwell's" with "John Turner's" and Brave New World with "Free Trade deal."

* - Those crazy bus drivers picked a great time to go on strike, what with winter coming on. Worse yet, the Kitchener City Council has vowed to stand firm on its contract proposals. Luckily, the Students' Union is look- ing into running a couple of chartered buses to help get students home, so kudos to them.

Tell me how itfelt To watch the waxen heroes melt Through the safety of a flickering suburban looking-glass; Once more...before... The memory has passed. TheScene - James Wilkinson Shuffle Demons All Over The Musical Map By Mike Shirley

They're a jazz band. They're a rap/funk group band. They're an a cappella group. Rest as- sured, the Shuffle Demons are by no means purists; they certainly demonstrated this during last Sat- urday's Halloween bash at the Bombshelter. They make their entrance from the back and honked their way to the bandstand through the adoring masses. Sporting the new Demon garb, (painted suits courtesy of Kurt Swinghammer), they kicked ass on their new single, "Funkin' Pumpkin". Drummer Skitch Winston jumped out from behind his kit in mid- song and did a loopy dance with a giant inflatable pumpkin, for me, the highlight of the show. But wait...there's more. The Shuffle Demons were all over the musical map: from "Demon Reg- gae" to the a cappella "Yukon Girl". What surprised me the most was how they played jazz (or their version of it, anyway). They were actually quite good on twelve-bar blues, with heads and everything, and didn't seem at all lost playing rhythm changes at a very brisk tempo ("Flintstones lift anywhere?"

Both interviews with Sinead and U2 can be found in this week's edition of The New Musical Express with O'Connor on the cover...Speaking of that magazine, it seems that the magazine is guilty of a bit of U2 sicaphaxy.

That review never make it to print and was replaced by a review describing the album as ■ ■ "reaching back to the traditional roots of rock with a winning enthusiasm". The editor of the magazine, Alan Lewis, claimed that he felt that Sinko's review was not a proper analysis of a double album by a group which occupies such high ground".

Waterloo 6 Laurier 5

Laurier opened the scoring in the first period on a goal by forward Brent Bywater, only to have Waterloo return the gesture twice, as the Warriors stepped into a 2-1 lead at the end of 20 minutes of play. Both teams traded goals in the second and early third periods, to even the score at 5-5 midway through the final stanza. Waterloo then had the final say on the scoresheet, converting on a powerplay op- portunity with only four minutes left. In addition to Bywater, Hawk goals were tallied by Peter Hellstrom, Larry Rucchin, Dan Rintche and Paul Gehl. The Hawks first line, led by Greg Puhalski, was checked closely all night, frustra- ting a usually potent attack. Perhaps veteran Hawk forward Tom Jackson summed up the team's feelings in the aftermath of the game. "Coach Gowing has warned us about taking stupid penalties and to have more discipline over ourselves. On behalf of the guys, I'd say we are all a little frus- trated over how things are going." This game was decided by a penalty that the Hawks took late in the game to give the Warriors the man-advantage, and an eventual powerplay goal.

The Laurier Men's Basketball Hawks lost their first exhibition game last week, 81-68, against an experienced K-W Titans squad that came out in full force. According to Coach Chris Coulthard, the first half was a display of the team's best effort this year. After the first stanza the Hawks were controlling the Titans 39-30. The turnaround came in the second half when the Hawks played their worst half of basketball this season, resulting in a rather unexpected loss. "We lost to a team that we shouldn't have" said Coulthard. "We failed to establish our team defensively and we did not run our zone offense". But he added, "It was an offense that was new to all the players". Although the squad failed to produce a win, the coach still ap- plauded three team members, in particular, for their excellent contri- butions thus far — Tony Marcotullio, Paul DeSantis and Danny Deep. Marcotullio, the Hawks' fast and highly strategic leader on of- fense, was Laurier's high scorer against the Titans with 19 points. "Tony has played very well offensively", said Coulthard, "and has remained consistent in the past three games". Marcotullio, in his sec- ond year as a starter for Laurier, has averaged 20 points per game this year. Paul DeSantis, a fourth year defense veteran who is starting for the first time this year, and Danny Deep, a rookie starter, were also praised by the coach. DeSantis scored 14 points in the game against the Titans, with Danny Deep, Gary Lankowski, and Mike Alessio Lady Hawks Ground Gryphons,Draw Lancerettes scoring 9 points each.
