SEXISM Western Students vote to keep Porn Mags

By Clive Thompson Ontario Bureau

TORONTO (CUP)—A slim majority of students at the University of Western Ontario voted recently to keep Penthouse, Playboy, THE MISSING LINK and Playgirl on sale in a campus store. By Clint Rory The Oct. 22 and 23 plebiscite, run by Western's student council, found about 55 percent of students favoured keeping the three magazines on the racks. "Smdents have made their voices heard. The magazines will stay at [the store]," said Sarah Nixon, smdent council vice president in charge of smdent issues. Controversy over the magazines erupted last year when some students held weekly pickets outside the store, saying the magazines degraded women. After last year's council refused to deal with the issue, this year's council settled on a non-binding vole, Nixon .said. But the council's women's coirmiission said the plebiscite was an inappropriate way to deal wilh the issue. "We didn't feel this kind of question should be put to a vote, since it was a human rights issue," said women's conmiissioner Nadine Artemis. "If this had been a racist publication would there have been a vote on it? "They don't normally ask the masses when they make decisioas. Why did they do do it for this one?" The smdent council also didn't present any educational material to help people decide, Anemis said. The women's commission was too busy with an anti-date rape campaign to do any other educational work, she added. Nixon, however, felt the plebiscite was a fair way of dealing wilh the issue. "It was a way to let the students decide democratically. It's a matter of community standards, so we let the community decide." The store is run by the University Community Centre. Centre director Habeeb Al-Aidroos said he will abide by the community's decision, though he also plans to solicit the opinions of staff and faculty. "Faculty and staff arc also concerned with imposing standards on what can and what can't by read by someone. But there is also the issue of violence against women, how this works into that, and I'm sympathetic with tliat too." Aitemis said a member of the Women's Commission will move to have the magazines removed at the Dec. 3 council meeting. Nixon said the issue can be reopened. This July, the Brock University student union voted unanimously to ban Hustler from the Campus store, saying it degraded women. They let Penthouse.

BARTON FINK By Tessa Bartholomeusz

To describe John Tuhirro's acting ability as veisatile is the understatement of the yearl John who? Okay, he's not a household name 'YET but I'm certain you know of him. You may recall his most visible role as Sal Pino, the racist son in Spike Lee's Do TTie Right Thing. His latest performance is in Barton Fink, a comedy-drama by sibling fdm makers Joel and Edian Coen who have established a name for diemselves widi such well-received films as Blood Simple, Raising Arizona, and Millers Crossing, to name a few. Barton (played by Tuhirro) is a screenplay writer from New York in 1941 who moves to LA to write for die "pictures." He checks into a seedy (rather surreal) hotel where he holes up and is stricken widi writer's block while trying to write a commercial wresdtng picnire for some Hollywood big weights. John Goodman (Arachnophobia and TV's Roseanne) plays his neighbour, an affable, talkative salesman who has some very dishirbing secrets. Barton Fink is brought to life by Tuturro's performance. He exaggerates facial expressions and develops certain idiosyncrasies that make Ihe character real and compelling to watch. Tlie movie scored best actor, director, and picture awards in die 1991 Cannes Film Festival, and for good reason. It is visually uncompromising and great care has lieen taken to detaU. It's a fdm you experience. It gets under you skin and creeps along until you discover diat Uiat creepy feeling isn't an entirely unpleasant sensation. •

REVIEW State of mind "The Road Within" By Des Reid

I've tried to review tiiis album by local band 'State of Mind' over die past few weeks, first on die way to Winnipeg and now here, in a cabin overlooking die whitewash of Long Beach on Vancouver Island. During diat timeI'v e spent a considerable amount of time reflecting on die band, die Vancouver music scene, and indeed my own "state of mind."

There were four teams who advanced to the divisional finals: Hot Tawallies, Wallbashers, OH&S (who came frombehind ) and hiformation Overload.
