BLACK THURSDAY WAS CRY DAY for 2,500 UBC students who marched silently to the Cairn, draped it in black and snuffed out the lamp of learning in the Great Cairn Ceremony of 1959. Many of the students taking part will be unable to return in September because of the fee increase. — Ubyssey photo by Hal Brochmann ™ UBYSSEY VOL. XLI VANCOUVER, B.C., FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1959 No. ■'/! Bennetts Band Plays $100 Increase Tune "We are waltzing to a very r expensive tune played by Mr. Bennett and his orchestra." These are the words spoken by AMS President Chuck Connaghan to the more than 2500 students gathered at the Mass Rally Thursday noon. "It's unfortunate that the words Tuum Est have to be buried under the black of mourning which drapes the Cairn, the centre of student University tradition." "When the words Tuum Est went singing to the Board of Governors, they paid little attention to the students' appeal ■ for help," he said. Connaghan went further in accusing the provincial government of the real blame for the fee increase. "The- blame fox the $100 fee increase must be put directly on the shoulders of Bennett and his gang." "We have been sold down the river," Connaghan added. "Mr. Bennett does not own this University — it belongs to the people of British Columbia. It is up to us to let the people know what is going on, so they will not allow something like this to happen again." Connaughan again berated the Board of Governors. "They INSIDE • Third Socred Quits, p. 3 • It Hurts p. 2 • Dollar Bills Song, p. 4 • How Students Feel, p. 3 • Student's Hopes....t p. 5 (the Board) have let us down. Therefore, it is up to you and I, the students of this University, to take up the fight. We will keep alive the tradition of the Great Trek." "Battles aren't won by licking your wounds," he stressed and reminded the students of their "Trek by Mail" adding that they should . write again "with renewed vigor." Connaghan spoke from a sound car just outside the circle of students that pressed around the cairn. His voice, now soft and barely audible, now loud and excited, echoed the feelings of the students who felt at once a sadness, a deep stirring pride, deeper disappointment, frustration and anger. Bennett Asks Us To Victoria Premier Bennett Thursday night refused to come to U.B.C. But he invited 40 placard-bearing UBC students who met him at Vancouver airport Thursday afternoon to "come and see me." He did not indicate how many students he was inviting or where the meeting should take place. The premier arrived at Vancouver airport from Victoria at 5.25 p.m. He was met by the 40 placard waving students. The students chanted: "Come to U.B.C." The premier replied: "You come and see me." Then he waved at the crowd and said: "It is always a pleasure to meet students. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you." He then tried to elude the students by weaving in and out of traffic on the way to downtown Vancouver. He addressed a British Columbia Automobile Association meeting at 8 p.m. in the Georgia Hotel. (Continued on Page 3 — See BENNETT ASKS) It's Nice To Be A Prime Minister Premier W. A. C. Bennett crossed the Oak Street toll bridge four times Thursday night in trying to elude university students. He paid no tolls. The Ubyssey Ke«>ps You Informed.

SMS to the EDITOR Student Strike Editor, The Ubyssey, vDear Sir: It is time we stopped -defiling the memory of the tradition of '23. Three years ago when Ben- ■ »ett refused money for buildings council decided to bury higher education. Three weeks ago council decided to call off the delegation to Victoria. And yesterday we shrouded the cairn in black. If the students had laid a wreath at the Fairview Shacks in '23 we would have laid our wreath there yesterday. The time has come to ACT in the tradition of '23. If council won't act it is time for some other body to act. I urge the heads of the Undergraduate Societies at "their meeting Monday to discuss the following proposals for action. 1 Mass delegation to Victoria t 2 Student strike. 3 Mass downtown demonstration. Vic Anderson, Arts IV Fanatics Editor, The Ubyssey, Dear Sir: Sociological entanglements and frustrations have become a fad on this campus. Symbols such as "Red Shirts," "Godiva," "Blue Sweaters and Green" all have served to bring forth a number of mixed-up emotional societies. Accompaning these are the cries of those fanatics that must follow the crowd. Such incidents as the raid on the Pub's office and the continual dunk- By AL FORREST (Ubyssey Editor-in-Chief) We marched. We listened. We snuffed the light. We cried. Then the 2,000 students looked at each other. "What do we do now?" someone asked. The question remained unanswered. Many questions remained unanswered after the Cairn Ceremony. Let's look at some of them. Why did it happen? ' : " ing of those who follow their own footsteps, inevitably will culminate in some atrocity. Throw off these vile institutions, as they now have become, before it is too late. Disband these rabble-rousers who dare attempt to secure public sympathy and opinion through force and exhibitionism. Censor those who thrive on misconceived notions of pride and superiority. Cast aside this pall and embrace the sunlight of individuality and sanity. Rory McDonald, Commerce—2nd Books Costly Editor, The Ubyssey, Dear Sir: While your drive against a fee increase is in full swing, I would like to draw your attention to an outrageous enterprize on the campus which is bleeding students dry. When first year students are asked to pay almost $8.00 for a Physics or chemistry book no arguments are raised because, as anyone can see, printing costs are raised by illustrations and diagram plates. But whatever happened to our Math 101 course! So far I have forked out over $7.50 to pay for five text books, of which only one is a hard cover effort (and not one picture!). These so-called books are no more than pamphlets and could have been contained in oite 3-4 dollar book. Our sixth book is yet to come, so the cost could easily reach nine or ten dollars and not one can foe classed as a book worth owning. Brokenly yours, TED MATTIOE Why did fees go up $100? There is no doubt that student council has fought nobly and well. AMS President Chuck Connaghan in particular has campaigned energetically against the fee hike. At the moving Cairn ceremony he said just the right things in just the right way. He has campaigned hard. He has been unrelenting. But i could he have done more? I have felt all year that a fee increase could be averted by a Third Trek. -Some argued that the word "trek" was too lofty, too sacred to use in the campaign. They said that an all-out trek would detract from the glory of the Great Trek. Such arguments must seem rather unconvincing now to the estimated 500 students who-will be forced out as a direct result of the $100 fee increase. An all-out drive was needed. It didn't come. It didn't come because of indecision among council members. It didn't come because students received little support or encouragement from the Board of Governors. In my view the one big mistake council made was in failing to see that the premier would make a counter move. If Premier Bennett rejected outright-the requested operating budget increase, student delegates would march on Victoria. If Premier'Bennett agreed to the full requested operating budget, students would do nothing but applaud. But councillors made no plans for the obvious move by the premier — a small increase and an alternate plan. When Premier Bennett announced his "happy" budget short changing the university by $1,550,000 student councillors should have made their big move. Instead they were caught with their briefs down. They were indecisive while precious time lagged. Finally they were left with no alternative but to go begging to the Board of Governors for only a small fee increase of less than $50. When fees went up $100 we held a Cairn Ceremony. It was great. It was memorable. It was a success. But it should have happened as soon as the budget came down. A meeting like the Great Cairn Ceremony of 1959 could have prevented a fee increase. I am confident of this. But now fees have already been raised. What can we do now, Chuck? What can we do now but cry? LITTLE MAN ON CAMPUS by Dick Bibler "IT'S ALL RIGHT DEAN — your two dogs aren't in here." LETTERS to the EDITOR No Disgrace? Editor, The Ubyssey, Dear Sir: In reference to a letter to the Editor of Feb. 13th last written by Messrs. -Carling and Vickery, we would ask them to get their facts straight. The Thunderbird Booster Club has never stated that it" is a "disgrace" that UBC is not an "athletic club where some extra curricular reading is required." The TBC doesn't force anyone to go to games, but just acts as a large sign-board saying "come to the game." The purpose of the club, as constituted under MAA, is defined as an organization to promote spirit on campus, publicize athletics at UBC, and assist in sports events (through the cheerleaders, majorettes, the booster band, half-time enter- tanment, etc.) It seems Messrs. Carling and Vickery don't like to be told what to do. The Booster Club doesn't tell you what to do; it just encourages enthusiasm among the students. In order for the writers' argument to hold true, we must assume their viewpoint is the same as for all other students who don't go to the games. We contend that this is not the case, that these students don't study all the time, and need the motivation to attend games which the Booster Club provides. The spirit of the UBC campus, inculding attitude towards everything from athletics to student government, is poor. Apathy is the keyword! The TBC tries to increase the spirit, bringing it up to a par with that of other universities. We agree that anyone's ac tivities on campus are strictly their own concern. Therefore, we take a dim view of the writers' suggestion that we reexamine our purposes for coming to university. Most people attend college to obtain an education in the broadest sense, developing a well-rounded character in the spiritual, mental physical, and social aspects of university life. This doesn't mean burying one's nose in a book and withdrawing from all campus activities. We'll see you at the game. Yours sincerely, John Goodwin, President, Thunderbird Booster Club Poor Okay Editor, The Ubyssey, Dear Sir: On reading the Letters to the Editor in the Feb. 12 issue of the Sun, I came upon an article by a student, Leif Ostensoe. In it, he states that by raising fees at UBC the rabble and the poor would be excluded, thus raising the cultural standards of the University. I can't help thinking of persons such as Edgar Allan Poe, who, although of a poor home has, through schooling presented the world with literary works that are recognized both by critics and the cultured as truly outstanding. In closing I hope that the opinions expressed by Mr. Ostensoe are not the opinions of the majority of the students at the University of British Columbia. Yours truly, ROBERT S. IRVINE arjfiday, February 27, mm THE"UBYSSEY PAGE' TRftaas ™>* *&» "!*K- Third Socred Quits Party A third campus Social. Grediter resigned from the club Thursday in protest against the $1C'0 fee increase. Member Roger Irvine in resigning, said: "The university has been given a raw deal. I don't want to be in the Social Credit club any longer." Irvine's resignation was the second in two days. Second Vice-President, Robert Aitken, resigned on Wednesday. Earlier Harvey Smith had quit the club. The-Social' Credit club reported a membership in excess of 30 in September. The club today is reduced to 14 members and an executive of five, it is reported.

Prom Councillors to students' mourning patches and the draped Cairn, from the darkening sky to UBC's darkened hopes, it was a black day. More than 2,500 students walked with bowed heads from two ends of the Main Mall,^ carrying black drapes and bitter Signs. They met at the Cairn, erected in 1922 to commerate the efforts of the students who built the university. Today's students, their faces grim, met at the Cairn and draped it in black sacking to symbolize their defeated hopes. While the Faculty entertained a visiting dignity at luncheon students grimly rallied to their defeated cause. It was an orderly crowd of Students who came, their heads bared and their faces sad and their manner orderly as befits mourners. A B.C. Electric bus roared by without stopping. The students looked at the bus, a few hissed their Chancellor but they did not speak. They stood in dead silence in a drenching rain while "The Last Post" was sounded. Then, having buried Higher Education, they quietly dispersed. The students went home, vowing to wear their mourning patches for the following week in bitter memory of UBC's darkest day, Feb. 24th. •Trailing signs that wryly joked about their Chancellor, "they left, waiting by the road in the rain for yet another B:C. Electric bus to pass. Students unanimously agree that Thursday's fee rally was impressive. The rally was staged at the cairn. Lion Shawser, -Arts 4 said "I think it was an adequate | demonstration but I don't think it will have much effect. I think that Bennett has shown that protests from the student body are absolutely inneffective. "He has ignored us in the past and will continue to ignore us until we can arouse and inform the public of our need. "I think information is more important than demonstration." Laurie Frisby found the rally "very orderly." "It was an excellent demonstration against the government. It is about time the people of B.C. realized the situation out here. The protest was an excellent w&y to take our cause to the people," Dave Smith, Arts 2, said the rally was "very impressive." "It got the point across. Everybody living in B.C. expected the students to revolt or stage a demonstration, but this was very impressive, so, so quiet." "Very impressive," said John Hodgins, Arts' 1, "it was a damn good idea. I liked the speech very much and I don't get fired up often. "I think the people will be impressed if the orderliness is reported properly." "It was the only thing we could do," said Ross Culluer, Law 2. "T h e protest demonstrated the true expressions of student feelings," he said. "I was very impressed by the attitude of the students. It showed that their concern was for higher education rather than for themselves," said John Helliwell, Commerce 4. Only person polled who didn't like today's rally was Peter Gordon, Arts 1.

This was the official reply given by prominent members of the Administration and Faculty when asked their im- preseions- -of -the Thwwday -f«e <j raliy. During the rally, heads of Administration and Faculty alike were bufy at various meetings and banquets and did not see the 2500 students marching down the Mall, nor j the draping of the Cairn. It does seem a pity. BENNETT ASKS (Continued from Page 1) Placard bearing students picketed the Georgia during his speech. The premier did not make clear in his invitation to students whether he was inviting a student delegation or a mass march on Victoria. The students said the premier seemed pleased to see them. "He smiled all the time," Ubyssey reporter Bob Cannon reported. Students went to the airport to greet the premier following the Great Cairn Ceremony Thursday. The premier left the Hotel Vancouver by the kitchen entrance and entered the kitchen entrance of the Hotel Georgia in order to elude students. Cry 'Day A few wisecracks, a few smiles.—but mostly sombre and sad looks.

BEASTLY £liCTR;IC Your Friendly (Utility Company Dear Friend: J Certain witnesses called before the fear oft public j opinion, currently concerned with the University's finances, have made statements that put the Chancellor and the Board of Governors in a bad Ught. I We have been concerned with some of these statements, as no doubt many of you have,-and it is unfortunate " .that there has been a great deal of opportunity to reply ] to them. To begin with, the bar of public opinion is now con- ' eerned with education as a whole, which means that the , ' University and its Board is involved incidentally. The present schedule leaves the Board's testimony long over-due, but we will be obliged to reply in a number j of years. . Secondly, it would be quite unfitting for us to make any public answer without first getting clearance from , the Government. , In the meantime, we hope you will keep an open mind on the subject of the Board of Governors and its Chancellor until such time as we may properly present our ease , — in a few years. — UBC BIRDY ' NOTE:—This advertisement is not published or displayed by the Government of British Columbia -~- but by one of its subsidiary organisations. PAGE FOUR THE UBYSSEY Friday, February 27, 1959 Faculty Wants Money UBC's Faculty Association want higher faculty salaries "to prevent a deterioration in academic standards," In a specially prepared brief presented to the Board of Governors last Monday, the Association stated that higher salaries were needed to allow the University "to compete successfully in the personnel market." Minimum salaries in all ranks are already higher, at Toronto, Queen's, Western Ontario and Saskatchewan, than at UBC," the Association told the Board. SUFFERING " "This University cannot continue to fall progressively behind in its financial position without.suffering a,corresponding . decline in the quality pf the educational services which it provides," the Association warned. '-; "''.-'■ '"The salary position : of our staff must be remedied promptly," said the Association. The need for staff additions to cope with expanding enrollment is increasingly pressing, the Association stated. Prof. A. W. R. Carrothers, President of the Faculty Association told the Ubyssey Thursday that UBC loses professors every year to Business and Industry. POSSIBLE Poor salaries are a possible cause of this and are definately a factor in our low recruitment, he said. Furthermore, there is a possible danger of attracting less- qualified Faculty members to UBC because of the University's low salaries, he said. A general meeting of the Faculty Association will be held Thursday to discuss the brief presented to the Board of Governors. Fee Fight Continues "We will let the people know just what is going on in University finances." With these words AMS President Chuck Connaghan launched into an explanation of Council's latest move against the fee increase. "Literature from this office will he sent out to the people. In it will be facts and figures concerning the needs of the University," he said. When asked what chances were that a supplementary grant would be obtained and the fees would not have to go up so high, Connaghan would not commit himself. "It is very difficult to comment," he said. "We are still hoping, of course, and are very much pressing for. a supplementary grant." "However," he added, "right mow the future is important too. We must make sure that something like this does not occur again, and the first step will be to go to the people." 7he Dollar Bills (To the Tune of "The Black Fly") Now when I was a young man, I wanted to be A student on the campus of the U.B.C. So I took my money to- the registrar's door But he said go on home, you've gotta have more Of the dollar bills, the little dollar bills You've gotta have the dollars just to pay your fees A hundred more or you can't go To democratic U.B.C. All hail democracy! Now I didn't have enough but it soon become known That if I was lucky I could get a loan So the dean checked my finances and his answer was brisk Your father hasn't money! you're not a good risk. For the dollar bills, .... Well there was one chance left, though I needed the time I would work nights, and weekends just to make a dime But the personnel office said get into the queue Threequarters of the students are ahead of you. For the dollar bills, .... Well I couldn't pay the fees, even cutting to the bone I couldn't get a job and I couldn't get a loan ',-,'. But my government statement lilled me with such pride "Under Social Credit no student is denied."
