It costs 35c per issue and looks .— in style and newspaper format — very much like Rolling Stone, the San Francisco rock culture paper. . as: will Egg also treats many items of the Rolling Stone genre: for instance, the first issue has record re— v1ews, and interviews with Robbie Robertson of the Band (who made the highly successful albums “Music From Big Pink” and “The Band”), and the Taj Mahal Blues Band. The writing is all of ex- cellent quality. Other features in the first issue concern the New York pornography industry in the arts; beauty contests considered as degrading for women; an interview with Toronto playwright John Herbert (author of “Fortune and Men’s Eyes” currently playing on Broadway); an article on Allen Gins- berg; pictures, movie reviews, and “The Incredible 326 Pound Topless Go-Go Dancer.” Although Egg is not currently available in town, it can be obtained by writing the mag at 111/2 Spadina Road, Toronto 4 and enclosing $6.00 'for 1 years (26 issues) or $10.00 for two years.

Getting To Know The Mysterious East From the Rubber Duck Press in Fredericton, NB. comes The Mysterious East, “A New Atlantic Magazine” which will appear monthly. The editorial for the first (November) issue begins, “At this late date, no one surely needs to be convinced that Maritime journalism is in a bad state. All the English-language papers in New Brunswick are controlled by one man, a man com- mitted to the profit motive, not to good reporting. Most of the other papers are attracted to trivia like a pin to a magnet.” . The November issue contains very little trivia. The lead article is an excellent investigation into. water pollution in the Atlantic Provinces called “The Brave New World of the Canada Water Act”. Pol- lution is becoming a bigger issue the longer big companies are allowed to get away with it. The Mysterious East calls it “the question of our time. If we don’t solve this one, the others don’t matter.” Other articles deal with the relation of people to the police (rights and duties), an analysis of the “People’s Park Affair” in Fredericton, an interview with socialist Conor Cruise O’Brien, 2. report on. the Mirimachi Folk Festival, and a book review. The Mysterious East sells at the single copy price of thirty-five cents, with subscriptions at $5.50 for twelve issues.

UNIVERSITY OF PRINCE-EDWARD ISLAND NOVEMBER 21, 1969 ' / — MAILSTROM — Dear Sir: The first few copies of the student newspaper have regaled us all with attack and counter-attack. Teachers, we read, are boring, arrogant, irrelevant and sterile. True — all too often true, though the fourth epithet seems unnecessarily personal. Stud- ents, on their part, are stupid, lazy, apathetic loud- . mouths. Who would deny it? All of this has done wonders for everyone’s mental health. Students have had the opportunity to work off frustrations bred by years of subordin- ation. Teachers have been reassured that they maintain some superiority since they can write as good as students. Gooder, even. Now what? Well, now we can turn to the examination of some specific criticisms and some proposals to eliminate the problems. And the best part of it is that we can do so each in the full knowledge of his own shortcomings. Thus, intellec- tual arrogance will be a thing of the past and Uni— versity of P.E.I. will be the first to achieve the supreme goal of all universities — humility. ‘Graeme Decarie To the Editor: We write this letter as an objection to the poem by Ra on Fernandez on page seven of the last . issue of the “Cadre”. 7 LATE NEWS: Even in this progressive age on this enlighten- ed campus there are some aspects of life which are held sacred. Does our university paper have to pub- lish such a piece of animalistic exploitation? Are you, as editor, so lacking in good- taste as to place this article in the pages of what is our university voice? Or perhaps it is our university vice, for such : it appears to be! Are we to consider ourselves free because we can publish filth which the youth of a generation ago had to purchase under the counter, or hear in a back alley? Responsibility and respect for other people must go hand in hand with freedom. Let us not continue to degrade ourselves or to flaunt our'freedom of the press in a “look, mom, no hands I” manner. We are not puritans or diehards of the Victor- ian era; rather, we simply have a respect for our sex, and a belief in the superiority of man over the beasts of the field. If this is the only poem worthy of being published in “The Cadre”, then the worldl’s supply of literature "is indeed scant. We do refer to the world’s supply for it is obvious that “The Cadre” does not hesitate to borrow from other pub. lications. Why not conduct a search for literature above the level of the gutter. We close in an awareness that this letter will be ridiculed by some, but in the trust that there are many on campus who agree With us. Two girls who care. . .
