It doesn't pay THE UBYSSEY Vol. XLVI, No. 47 VANCOUVER, B.C., FRIDAY, JANUARY 31, 1964 ■@*4S CA 4-3916 Eight in running for three offices AMS posts —don hume photo SLAVE GIRL . . . awaiting'the bell Three sheets to the win Auction action was real beaut By TOM WAYMAN Well, we tried. Ubyssey photographer Don Hume and I were sent to cover the Engineers' Slave Auction Thursday noon. Alumni to honor top UBC student UBC alumni association Thursday announced the creation of an award to be given annually to the outstanding student of the year. Tim Hollick-Kenyon, head of the a lumni association, said the award, called the "Alumni Award to Student Merit," would be given to a student with good marks, who has served the university and has good character. "It is a unique award at the university," he said. "It is open to anyone, male or female, in any year, any pursuit whether arts or athletics. "It will be Great Trekker Award in reverse where the alumni will be able to honor the students," he said. The Great Trekker Award is the highest award students can give alumni who have contributed to the university's development. Hollick - Kenyon said the award will take the form of a plaque with a small replica given to the student who wins it. He said the idea for the award was first put forward in a 1960 Alumni survey of the university's needs. "But it and many other of other recommendations were not acted upon. The plaque will be given at the second annual Student- Alumni banquet in Brock, Thursday, Feb. 6. CHUCK RENNIE . . "mortal fear" We decided the best way to get to know the auction—uh, intimately—was to bid for one of the 17 girls from Phraetes' Nu Chapter that the engineers were auctioning off to raise money for an orphan in Korea. So I went up to the back of the jammed Civils building classroom and bid, while Hume walked over to where timekeeper " Gopher " Waldron waited with his bell. Every time the bid is raised five cents the bidder gives a nickel to someone collecting the cash from the crowd. The last one to bid before the timekeeper sounds his bell, wins the sheet-draped beauty as his "slave" for the day, provided he takes her to a party that night. Hume waited beside the timekeeper until the time was just about up. Then he gave me the high sign. Screaming "Five dollars!" above the noise of cymbols and sirens, I leaped to my feet just as Waldron rang the bell. (Continued on page 2) SEE: SLAVES They're all gone THE RCMP RIDE AGAIN (SEE PAGE 5) Boechler 'escapes loony bin Sciencemen tried to commit education undergrad president George Boechler to Essondale Thursday morning. They invaded the education undergrad offices, hustled Boechler off to their own offices, and dressed him in a restraining jacket and hospital garb. He was let out in front of the nurses' residences, where he was quickly nabbed by two Essondale security patrolmen. "There was no doubt in my mind that they thought I had escaped from the place/' said Boechler. While Boechler asserted his sanity and maintained he was. indeed, president of UBC's education undergrad society he was pushed towards a patrol car. The sciencemen said the stunt was in retaliation for the theft of their chariot before last year's homecoming game. "All I can say," babbled Boechler, "is that Chuck Rennie (president of the science- men) had better live in mortal fear for the rest of his days." go to vote on Feb. 5 It's a race. Eight candidates filed nomination papers Thursday, by the 4 p.m. deadline for three positions on the AMS first slate. Three candidates are contesting the AMS presidency, three are seeking the the secretary's position. An 11th hour candidate, Howard Faulkner, Arts II, filed papers for the AMS second vice-presidency held by Byyron Hender. Hender, seeking re-election, was unopposed until Faulkner filed. The three seeking the presidency are Mike Coleman, arts president; Roger McAfee, Campus Canada editor; and Ken Harrison, Engineering III. Donna Morris, Marilyn Mc- Means and Ruth Dumont art- seeking the secretary's job. The number of candidates is a turnabout from last year when the presidency and second vice-presidency nearly went by acclamation. At the last minute a group called the Non-Conforming Calathumpiums propped up three candidates to make it a race. As nominations closed Thursday, AMS first vice-president Jim Ward immediately called on the candidates to put some- life into the campaign. He said they should face the issues and promptly named several they should be facing. (See story on Ward's questions, Page 2). The Feb. 5 election will fill three of six executive positions on council. On Feb. 12, students wil vote on posts of treasurer, co-ordinator of activities and first vice-president. Statements by students who seconded the nominations for first slate candidates are on Page 3 of today's Ubyssey. Statements by the candidates will appear Tuesday. Rally round what flag, boys? Where have all the flags gone? A flag stolen from atop the uncompleted education wing hasn't turned up yet. A flag sent to The Ubyssey —it measured 12 feet by. six— has still not been claimed by its owners. And a flag that is supposed to fly over the Armory still isn't up. The flag from the educa tion building, one of Bennett's abortions, was taken from the building a week ago. And the man responsible for the flag isn't too happy. Fred Gordon, government supervisor of the construction job, said the flag, measuring 12 by 24 feet, is worth $75 and he will have to replace it "I was young once myself," said Gordon, "and I'll go along with a prank but if it doesn't get returned that's a different story." Gordon says he does mrany little things for students such as picking them up as he drives into the university in the morning. "It makes you want to stop doing these things when students don't do anything for you," he said. Meanwhile, back in The Ubyssey office, the flag sent to the paper in the mail still awaits its owners — the administration. Editors said no one has asked for the flag yet so they'll continue to hang on to it. And the Armty? Spokesmen told The Ubyssey last week the reason it wasn't flying was that a halyard was broken and no one could be bothered to fix it. Pqge 2 THE UBYSSEY Issueless campaign irks tousled AMS soapboxer Friday, January 31, 1964 AMS first vice-president Jim Ward called on candidates in this year's election to face the issues. In an interview with the Ubyssey Thursday afternoon, Ward said that there were two ways in which the elec- Bauer s Babes whomp Swedes at Innsbruck Father Bauer's hockey team scored once in every period to beat the Swedes 3-1 for its second straight win in Innsbruck.. The Olympics beat Switzerland 8-0 in the first game of the championship round Wednesday. Canada led Sweden 2-1 after two period. Bob Forhan scored for Canada in the first period and Rod Seiling counted in the second and third. Tumba Johansson scored for Sweden when Canada was shorthanded. NDP campaigner: Nuclear role not for Canada' By AL DONALD Canada's acceptance of nuclear arms could be dangerous to the future of the world . UBC New Democrat, Bill Pickett, at a Model Parliament campaign debate in Brock lounge, said accepting nuclear arms "is fooling around with the destiny of the world." All five parties supported an increase in foreign aid, although the Cons ervatives thought it should be on a lending basis. Conservative Peter Hyndman said underd eveloped countries should be allowed to help themselves "by borrowing." On education, Hyndman suggested the formation of a national graduate school and inter-regional scholarships. Socred president, Ken Gag- liardi said: "Education is a field ' we feel very strongly about." The audience received the statement dubiously. "Wait until the next budget," he went on, "You can't hustle these things. It takes time." Liberal delegate, Dave Wilder, opposed federal control of education. Wilder said an exchange of teachers between English and French Canada would improve French-English relations. Campus Communist president, Charles Boylan, criticized the recently ratified Columbia River treaty. Boylan suggested that the river should be diverted for use on the prairies. Gendarmes clash with student mob PARIS (CUP) — Several thousand Paris students and hundreds of policemen clashed recently during a demonstration for better study conditions. The students had been on a protest strike for a week when the demonstration occurred. Several of them were arrested.

"Issues have been absent from this campaign," Ward said. He said candidates should be prepared to take a real stand on issues. Ward said he wanted to know how the candidate thought SUB financing should be done. Ward said he wanted to know about the Canadian Union of Students. ''Do the candidates feel we should stay in for another year?" he asked. "We've been staying in for 'just one more year' for the last four years." Ward wondered whether the candidates intend to set up direct representation with the adminstration—such as a seat on the senate. He said he wanted to hear candidates views on what Ward called "President Macdonald's incroachments on student autonomy." Do they intend to spend less or more money on athletics or academics? Ward asked. He said that athletics currently are in very poor financial shape, but that Negro author James Baldwin, whose $500 lecture fee was criticized by many councillors, was one of the most popular events the AMS sponsored this year. "I think we could do away with homecoming," Ward said. "It's lost money for at least three years." He said he wanted to hear the candidates views on getting rid of such money-losing but traditional AMS activities. How do candidates expect to do a good job of being president, and still maintain good academic standards, Ward wanted to know. And also, do candidates feel they should try to interest the student body in AMS, and if so, how?

YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO JOIN A CHALLENGING AND FAST-GROWING PROFESSION Chartered Accountants play a decisive role in Canadian business, industry and government. Many have attained executive positions of considerable stature and influence; their training and experience enables them, as one writer has put it, "to disentangle the threads of profitability that hold a company together." CA. training offers interesting employment with practising chartered accountants. Your work "on location" will introduce you to a wide range of industrial, financial, commercial, service and governmental operations. The Institute of Chartered Accountants 530 BURRARD ST., VANCOUVER 1 MU 1-3264 Friday, January 31, 1964 THE UBYSSEY Page 3 SECONDER'S STATEMENTS FOR PRESIDENT MIKE Coleman By ROSS MUNRO I believe that only Mike Coleman can effectively fill the position of AMS President. Mike has a thorough grasp of the major issues the student body will be facing in the year ahead: the union building, the all-important qestion of relations with the university administration and the general public, and many others. Mike has not limited himself to a single area of student afairs and has consequently gained the wide experience so necessary for one who aspires to the AMS Presidency. Most important of all, Mike possesses those character traits which the demands of leadership require. He has demonstrated on many occasions that leadership can be exercised with dignity and diplomacy. For these reasons I very strongly urge you to join with me in support of this exceptional man. ROGER McAfee By DARYL DICKINSON Roger McAfee possesses the dynamic qualities of leadership and organizational ability as well as the maturity which are essential for a student president. He has served the student body well in the past, holding posts on the AMS and Acadia councils while leading The Ubyssey to its first Southham Trophy. As President he was the driving force in the reorganization of the national student news service, Canadian University Press. Roger is now editor of "Campus Canada" and an executive on the Open House Committee. Academically, Roger has also proven his merit, holding a BA and now working toward a Law degree. FOR SECOND VICE BYRON Hender By ROBIN LECKY I am very pleased to second the nomination of Byron Hender for his second term as 2nd vice-president on the AMS executive. Not only will his past experience prove invaluable to the new executive, but also his detailed knowledge of the society's public relations program will be of great use to the student body during our present crisis in higher education. Byron has served as assistant coordinator of publications, chairman of the higher education promotion committee, and is presently a member of Open House. He served last year as second vice-president, and as this area of student government is his specialty, he wishes to work again with continuing enthusiasm. Byron can lend continuity, experience and stability to our new student executive. HOWARD Faulkner By KEN CORMACK I, Ken Cormack, feel pleased to nominate for the position of second vice-president, Howard Faulkner. I feel that he will be able to bring new vitality to this office. He is a person of ability and I know he will work for the best interests of all the students. They're fearless Council coughs away at cancer Cough, cofugh. The cancer craze hasn't corndered council yet. Mixed with the verbal haze of the council meeting rose the gossamer blue mist from cancer sticks. All the publicity about the link between lung cancer and smoking hasn't affected council in the slightest. Halfway through last Monday's meeting, even Nursing Skeptical or not ? LONDON, Ont. (CUP) — University students are 23 per cent more skeptical in their religious beliefs than other people, according to a recent survey at the University of Western Ontario. FOR SECRETARY RUTH Dumont By DOUGLAS HAGER It gives me great pleasure to second the nomination of Miss Ruth Dumont for AMS secretary. In high school Ruth was editor of her school paper and was elected President of the student council. At UBC Ruth has participated in a wide variety of interests. Ruth's amazing organizational and secretarial abilities were widely evidenced by her contribution to the 1963 Leadership Conference. Because of her enthusiasm, eficiency, and over-all competence I know Ruth would be a golden asset to student's council and I therefore urge everyone to vote for Ruth Dumont on Feb. 5. MARILYN McMeans By TOM SKUPA For the position of AMS secretary, the prime qualification is executive experience. Marilyn McMeans is the one candidate equipped with a good working knowledge of what the post requires. Marilyn's experience as secretary of Arts Undergraduate Society, AMS structural revisions commission and Frosh retreat is supplemented by organizational experience as Frosh and Arts Council executive member and Frosh Retreat secretary and program chairman. Therefore, I urge you to vote Marilyn McMeans, THE girl for secretary. DONNA Morris By DENIS STANLEY Donna's work on the Fort Camp Women's Council as president, her positions as Senior Editor on The Ubyssey and Associate Editor of Campus Canada, as well as the Homecoming and Mardi Gras Committees helped her become a member of Delta Sigma Pi, UBC's honorary Sorority. Honors history student, Donna is active in UBC affairs, she will continue to be active in them and above all she is good looking. I would sugest that Donna Morris is your best choice for secretary.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 31, 1964 A pub in SUB With parched throats, we contemplate a time-worn question: Why haven't we got a pub on campus? We think it's time a concentrated student effort was made to achieve this long-sought, but long-frustrated, goal. The reasons we don't have a pub within seven miles, let alone right on campus, are (1) our hyper-public relar tions-conscious administration, and (2) our puritanical provincial government—not much of a hurdle, eh? The administration will not even discuss the subject of beer (save for within the confines of the Faculty Club's / banquet-licence bar) because they're afraid their public f image would suffer. They might lose the financial sup- ! port of a handful of teetotalling alumni, or arouse the ire of Johnny Frosh's mother, they say, if they were to acknowledge such sin. For the same blind reasons, the administration will not allow The Ubyssey to run beer advertisements— they're afraid some people might think that this would corrupt our rosy-cheeked undergraduates. They're right, of course, many people would complain. But they're also ignoring the fact that these students have been (1) looking at beer ads in every magazine and newspaper they have picked up since they learned to read and (2) imbibing that wicked amber liquid in downtown pubs, basement suites, and Volkwagens since they were 17 anyway. Nobody knows the reasons why the government that gets things done is so backward in its liquor policies. But everyone knows that when any establishment west of Burrard St. asks for a liquor licence, they receive mimeographed notes from the Liquor Control Board saying sorry, we are unable to grant your request. No reasons. Ignoring completely our society's strange morals which forbid the partaking of alcohol by anyone under 21, the situation is utterly irrational and hypocritical. There are thousands and thousands of adult citizens attending the University of B.C. The problem of distinguishing them from those sly, immoral minors is ridiculously simple—the AMS or the university gives them a different-colored identity card. At the majority of Canadian and U.S. campuses, there are pubs right across the street from the university —at McGill, an alley separates the student union building from a hotel beer parlor. We say it's time prohibition went out the window at UBC. Let's have a beer parlor on Tenth Avenue. Or better still, a pub in SUB. —University of Washington Daily Obviously a Communist front. ,*.'. -\&\ >, „"/-«*•,% Disillusioned Frosh takes a look at our 'milksop AMS elections By JOHN KELSEY There appears to be two candidates for AMS president (the third has not been heard from, and doesn't seem to exist at all). I have heard and spoken to them both, since an election of this nature must be decided on the policy and ideas of the candidates running. But there is absolutely no essential difference between them. • • • They are both for the same things, both against the same things, and undecided on the same things. Ask either of them—you'll get the same answers. They both want a reopening of the "lines of communication" between the AMS ofice and the president's office. They both want more money from, outside sources to supplement the fee hike, which they both think is justified. They both want SUB. And they both want everybody's vote. We, as electors, now must make a rational decision on irrational factors, such as experience in student govern- LETTERS: The nurses and 'self-d Editor, The Ubyssey: You have made statements in your editorial "A hospital case" (Jan. 30) which reflect on the members of the Nursing Undergraduate Society. These statements are based on opinions of "a few" anonymous nursing students. This mass of misinformation and masquerading as an editorial implies that nursing students at UBC are overworked, indoctrinated, and have their conduct closely supervised. Professionalism requires a certain amount of self-discipline. One cannot confuse what some people feel is overwork, indoctrination and supervision with the learning of self-discipline. MARY CARMICHAEL EDNA LITTLE LOIS MARSHALL PHYLLIS PIDDINGTON Nursing A warning Editor, The Ubyssey: I wish to inform the East African students on this campus that East African students in the Americas have a very strong union with branches all over the continent. • • • Those who consider themselves East Africans are welcome to be members. The Union, guided by "African personality" or East African personality if you like, is the official mouthpiece of the students recognized by the East African governnlents. I warn and advise the East African students on this campus that association with the so-called "African Students Association" (UBC) being formed by South African students and pseudo-imperialists with a support of a handful of blind African stooges, is in- jurious to our interests. DISMAS ADIJA, Arts IH. Down, Scott An open letter to Malcolm Scott: The Engineering Undergraduate Society Council takes strong exception to your public statements regarding the fee raise. The use of such words as "garbage" and sweetheart deal" to describe the Board of Governors handling of the fee increase is irresponsible, detrimental to the reputation of the student body, and, most important, makes the conduct of future negotiations with the administration more difficult. We do not defend the Administration, but we feel that these comments are certainly not representative of the ment, personality, or age. As to experience, one candidate has a good deal from working in the AMS; and the other has a good deal in reporting the working of the AMS. They balance out. • • • Personality is one hell of a silly way to decide an election such as the AMS especially when both candidates are so well qualified anyway. Age is as silly, when one is 20 and the other is 23. Therefore, we can make no decision on the basis of factors other than policy. Impasse. Democratic voice is a farce. We are lowered to the point of choosing "the captain of our ship" on the basis of who has the prettiest smile, or who has the most friends. This, I contend, is madness. • • • Are there no students on campus (elegible for the presidency) who are against SUB? Not one soul who thinks that the provincial government ( or the student body) should pay the entire cost of this university? No free thinker who iscipline majority of student opinions. We recognize that there are many good points in your program, but these have been completely obscured by the very bad public image you have presented. We suggest that in this matter you confine your efforts to the improvement of scholarship, bursary, and loan facilities, and refrain from unnecessary comment to the press. If you must comment, at least please be diplomatic. EUS Council EDITOR: Mike Hunter Associate ._- Keith Bradbury News Dave Ablett Managing ..... George Railton City Mike Horsey Photo Don Hume Critics Ron Riter Sports Denis Stanley Asst. City .. Richard Simeon wants to make the AMS office into a kindergarten? No anarchist who wants to cement the board of governors into Dr. John Mac's office and leave them there? Of course, there is not much chance that someone with this type of ideas would be elected. But certainly we need these sort of people to enable us to register a minority opinion by voting for them, and to enable us to extract a concrete statement from another candidate. When all of the candidates stand for the same things exactly, neither has to look for injustices to be righted; neither has to listen to a minority voice, because both know that the dissenter has no other recourse but to refrain from voting. • • • This deplorable situation, with two identical people seeking the most important student office on campus, leads to two milksop candidates. And to a milksop personality election. No issues to be debated, no platforms to scream about, just two sweet young men with pretty smiles and confidence that each is better than the other. We might as well stick a pin into Birdcalls for our AMS president, as go through this sham. Ha, ha !

Friday, January 31, 1964 THE UBYSSEY Pag. 5 BACKGROUND Redcoats still hunt campus reds OTTAWA (CUP) —The issue has arisen again. Are the Royal Canadian Mounted Police on Canadian university campuses?. Prime Minister L. B. Pearson and former Justice Minister Lionel Chevier said an emphatic "No" to a Canadian Union of Students and Canadian Association of University Teachers (CAUT) delegation on November 15. • •, * Last month the University of Saskatchewan at Regina was the centre of reports that a student had been approached by an RCMP security officer. The officer asked him to spy for the government. When government leaders were questioned on the floor of the House of Commons they denied the incident. Latest reports from Regina indicate the student might have misinterpreted the officer, but the student (unnamed, but known to be honest and not given to illusions) maintains that indeed the officer asked him to report on his fellow students and professors. • • • CUS is presently seeking documentation on the incident, for, if the charge is true, it would be a direct violation of the promise given to the student university community by the prime minister last November. Last year there was a great cry, from campus and Commons alike, that RCMP officers were on campus "insidiously spying on" students and professors. CUS and Canadian University Press (CUP) worked jointly to provide documentation on these charges. £J<>1 Len Norris, Vancouver Sun Many students did not wish to come forward and relate their experiences with RCMP personnel. In an interview last March then RCMP Commissioner Harvison said that the RCMP were interested in activities on Canadian campuses because Communists were also interested. • • • He would not say whether RCMP officers were then investigating students through professors, or the professors themselvesr A CUS congress in October passed a resolution seeking a final clarification of the RCMP's campus activities. The congress threatened a "suitable manifestation" by Ottawa university students if the government did not reply to its request for a statement of investigation policy on the university campus by November 15. On November 15 CAUT and CUS officials asked to have a meeting with the Prime Minister and Minister of Justice, the new RCMP Commissi oner McClennan and other government members. • * * They were told: "There, is at present no general RCMP surveillance of university campuses. The RCMP does, in discharge of its security responsibilities, go to the universities as required for information on people seeking employment in the public service or where there are definite indications that individuals may be involved in espionage or subversive activities." Money is there Million soothes fee sting Worried about fee increases? More than $1 million in financial aid awaits deserving students at UBC. The university calendar lists 1,400 money grants, including scholarships, bursaries, loan funds and lectureships. Last chance for exchange grants *• Applications for the World University Service exchange scholarships are available at International House and the AMS office. The scholarships to Germany, the U.S.S.R., Japan, Spain and Chile are open to all students on campus. They provide free tuition, room, board, medical insurance, book allowance and pocket money. For further information phone Fred Tat- low at CA 7-0786. Applications must be handed in at. International House by Feb. 6. Selection boards meet February 9. Largest grant is that of the provincial government—half of tuition fees to high school graduates and university students who obtain first-class standing and one-third of fees to the top 2,000 students with second-class standing, and $133 to high second-class students. • • • This means approximately $200 to first-class students and $133 to those above the 65-per-cent mark. Some of the awards are from large corporations and industries like General Motors and International Nickel. Others are from individuals and organizations like the Kinsmen, B'nai B'rith and IODE. • • • Large - scale local donors have included Leon and Thea Koerner, H. R. Macmil- lan, and the Dal Grauer memorial fund. Not all awards are open to all students. Some, like the one from an eastern univer- j sity, have few applicants: "To a male student, born in Restigouche, Gloucester, Northumberland or Kent Counties, New Brunswick, whose family, at least on one side, settled in one of these counties before 1878, and whose forebears earned part of their living working at sawmills and pulpmills in these counties between 1878 and 1900." Students interested can obtain a list of the awards available to B.C. students at the registrar's office. Fillet Warbles James H. Fillet recieved the Emshwender fellowship for three years of study abroad. His prize-winning thesis was titled "Warble Effect of Micro- moens on Cedar Neutrides". This seems direct and conclusive at first, but when read closely the statement does not make clear any of the phrases: "general RCMP surveillance," "security re- ponsibilities," "as required" and "espionage or subversive activities." CUS also recognized this and asked the prime minister for a clarification. No reply has been received. Appearing on a national TV program, Dave Jenkins, CUS president, said: "If nowhere else in Canada, freedom of speech should be permitted on the university campuses. Professors and students are afraid to think and challenge ideas if they feel that they are under constant RCMP surveillance." • • • He said: "I don't mind RCMP officers, studying at universities; it is a good idea to raise the standards of the RCMP." Next month CUS and CUP wil be investigating the latest "'breach" of the RCMP and if it is a valid case, Jenkins says he will take it directly to the Prime Minister. BOARD.

Something' mystifies Council By TOM WAYMAN Ubyssey Council Reporter Just because you back everybody, doesn't mean you can please everybody. RGGU, the group that will back any cause, found this out after Monday's council meeting. RGGU has no official name, just initials. RGGU asked the Undergraduate Clubs Committee executive meeting for something on Jan. 14. A UCC minute indicates they accepted. But Council refused to approve the minute of the UCC until they found out what the 'something' was that UCC had passed. Engineering president Pete Shepard attacked the group's publication 'Iconoclast.' He read excerpts from the mimeographed sheet to Council. "It's trashy," said Donna Pearson, Home Economics president.

With what remains he has contrived a surrealistic production of Shakespeare's classic in the tradition of, as noted by Moore in his program notes, "Voodoo Macbeth s, Eskimo Lears and Wild West Taming of The Shrews." • • • But never, never, never has there been a Julius Caesar like the one at the Playhouse. Where to begin? The Roman Senators are dressed in grey sweat shirts and slacks; the younger members, the majority, look like Young Offenders on their way to Haney Correctional Institution. Caesar, Great Caesar, who doth bestride the world like a Colossus, wears: white tennis trousers, white T-shirt (Army & Navy, 79c) and — black oxfords! He carries a red sheet uncomfortably as though someone had asked him to hold it for a minute. Mark Antony wears the same rig as Caesar except that he dispenses with the blanket and managed to rustle up some white tennis shoes. Portia wears peasant garb of the 14th Century and Calpurnia, although I'm sure this will be rectified by the time you read this, actually wears a gown that looks as though it might have been worn by Caesar's wife. The Battle of Phillipi looks like a teen-age rumble except for the surrealistic touch of having Antony's generals wear white bus-boy monkey jackets with red-tabs as they gabble through (and it seems wildly incongruous) the majestic lines of Shakespeare. • • • With no set (Caesar's throne is a canvas folding chair), no conviction, fire or feeling in any of the lines, (with one exception noted below) and the, to put it kindly, informal dress of the actors, the overall impression is of a rehearsal during an early run-through. To be blunt, this production is bloody awful! Symptomatic is the casting of Alan Scarfe as Antony. Scarfe is talented, has a fine voice and will go far. But he's not ready to play Mark Antony. Mavor Moore makes very little use of the large stage at his disposal, unimaginatively employs that nerve-jarring ca- cophany of scrapings and scratchings called electronic music, impudently "improves" Shakespeare by giving Casca some additional lines by way of Prologue, something about "We're just a bunch of actors and stage-hands and electricians — we're not really Roman citizens." Which turns out to be quite an understatement. • • • Oh, for some good, honest booing at the end. But no, the tame audience responded with more-than-dutiful applause. Shakespeare has been betrayed many times and he's used to it by now; after all, he's been around for four hundred years. But as Mavor Moore makes his thrust at Shakespeare, I can hear the Bard gasp, "Et tu, Mavor?" —ken hodkinson Critics5 Page FOUR FROM A CAST of 40 are (I. to r.)

Vancouver audiences were treated to a rousing performance last Sunday afternoon cf Brahm's First Piano Concerto in D minor. Claudio Arrau, world famous Chilean pianist, thrilled the listeners with his excellent craftsmanship. The great versatility of Ar- rau's touch was extremely enjoyable. From playing in a robust manner, with fire and energy, he could change to a light, airy passage and perform it with "minute delicacy. His performance was very dynamic, with surging melodies, rich tone, and pleasing interpretation. There seemed to be a remarkable affinity between the pianist and the conductor, Irwin Hoffman. • • • Two items of programme music were performed by the Vancouver Symphony. Programme music is distinct from absolute music in that it portrays a story or a concrete subject rather than being totally abstract. The first, Uirapuru, by Villa- Lobos, a Brazilian composer, was based on a legend of an enchanted bird, Uirapuru. In the style of South American music, the piece was characterized by typical native rhythms and dramatic, passionate melodies. The mysterious mood was enhanced by forest sounds made by various percussion instruments, some of Brazilian origin. • • • The work La Me? by Debussy reflected the composer's love for the sea. Debussy's vague, transparent style of composition seemed especially suited to such a subject. The first section, From Dawn Till Noon at Sea, used muted instruments and complex rhythms. The music ebbed and flowed like the sea. The second, Play of the Waves,, was light, gay and sparkling. Dialogue of the wind and the sea was turbulent and menacing, with the timpani rumbling like the stormy wind at sea. —jean etheridge cinema o$ JoAtivcd On February 6, 1964, the Festival of Contemporary Arts is showing, under the sponsorship of Cinema 16-UBC, Vernon Zimmerman's film To L.A. with Lust as well as Swain by Markopoulos. The program has been advertised as costing 35 cents. Methinks, being a University festival, and being relatively cheap, the films should be free. At noon of the following day, noted San Francisco film critic Pauline Kael will speak on some catch-all subject. This should turn out to be very interesting. Kael can be, at turns, gentle or exceedingly vicious in her reviews; she usually cuts deep. • • • Kael has said of the American movie: "At the moment San Francisco is so far behind New York on the new foreign films that I'd better limit myself to American movies. That seems sensible and plausible. Who would suspect that it's really a dirty joke? Only those who have been going to American movies. And who does go to American movies?" . . . and of Hollywood: "Perhaps the greatest service Hollywood could do the nation would be to stop exporting (their movies): our films are turning us into fortune's fool." Needless to say, you can expect anything when you attend a Pauline Kael lecture. • • • I feel compelled to close with another Kaelism, this time about Billy Wilder's One. Two, Three: "Just about every reviewer of One, Two, Three- has been enticed into shovelling it on . . . The critics have been picking up their shovels all right, but I think they're digging the grave of humor.

Friday, January 31, 1964 THE UBYSSEY Pag* 7 (CONCLUSION) The award for the best short fictional film was presented to Czechoslovakia for The Orator. Combining animation and the use of puppets, it is a satire on human pride — depicting ir; detail the effects an orator imagines he will work upon his audience, and their opposite effect in reality, to which he is oblivious. It is successful in its thorough exploration of the subject, in the range of emotions evoked by popular oratory and in technique — the sharply characterizing details of the puppets. • • • It is interesting to note the developing scope of the animated film which is being used not only to explore comic situations with more subtlety but also to express more serious themes. A film of much greater significance than The Orator was Everyday Chronicle, a Yugoslav film in which the abrupt, stylized treatment of the cartoon proves a perfect vehicle for a devastating attack on mechanized society, one in which human life has become so routined and depersonalized that a dog enters it and takes part in all its activities — travelling, working, eating, making love and dying — without being noticed. A special Jury award was granted to France for a group of films which, in the opinion of the judges, were particularly outstanding. Although the quality of the films as a whole presumably merited an award, one of these, L'oeuf a la coque, which was singled out and re- shown, illustrates the French tendency, already noted in Verre textile, to delight in sound and visual effects unrelated to any content. • • • L'oeuf depicts an ominous surrealistic landscape — an expanse of rippled sand broken by glowing subterranean caverns and craters of blue water. An egg, which is occasionally convulsed with laughter, wobbles around on it, eventually falling down a deep hole into an awaiting egg-cup. Possibly the film intends to convey something, more probably it is itself a satire on obscure symbolism; but lacking any recognizable theme it remains simply a study in texture and light — a suitable setting for an allegory never expressed. • • • The award for the best feature, granted unofficially by the Canadian Association of Film Societies, was presented to another French film, Les Abysses. This film was probably chosen because of the novelty of its subject matter. It was based on an actual French criminal trial in 1930, a study of two sisters who are reduced to the level of animals by contemptuous treatment from their employers. The director exploits his subject matter to its fullest extent, creating a completely convincing study of human animals. —betly vogel Owl & Goat The folk enthusiasts around town have been staying away from Jean Redpath's balladeer- ing at the Attic in droves. This is truly a pity, for Jean Redpath undoubtedly has one of the purest and best controlled voices operating in the folk medium, a voluminous and interesting repertoire, and a large measure of fame in the more civilized parts of the world. Goddammit people, grow up . . . • • • Reverend Gary Davis, the guitar players' guitar player, will be appearing soon at the Attic. • • • Radsoc's programming would be more appropriate for a university audience if the people responsible were somewhat less attentive to the hit parade. • • • The venerable Inquisition is re-opening early in February with local jazz man Elmer Gill. I hope they perpetuate Howie Bateman's policy of having hootenannies on Sunday . . . and paying those who play. Those who perform at the hoots offered at present (no place names, no hard feelings . . .) are expected to labor for love and free coffee. • • • For those who like folk art from the heart or with roots or whatever the appropriate phrase is, the Alma Y provides it every first and third Wednesday — without admission cost. • * • That the Bunkhouse on Davie St. and the Attic turn over a comjparable volume of clientele week by week is astounding, considering the Bunkhouse uses local talent exclusively, and the Attic expensive imports. • • • Watch this column in the near future for a definitive evaluation of all the local folk talent . . . —wayne lamb ChadWMudL Jaw ai Q£ J After nervously clutching mty coat in one hand and my girl's hand in the other, I climbed to the very top of the QET to enjoy some true-blue button-down folksongs. The singing of the Chad Mitchell Trio was skilled with out being too mechanical. Their words were well enunciated — they could be heard in the top row. Their harmony was not a blur of decibles and chords but rather a blend, like good wine, of three voices and two guitars. • • • The audience was quite unusual — there wasn't the usual sing-along or clap-along. In fact the audience was so quiet at times that the QET took on a religious air. The Trio started off with "Galveston" and worked through songs about grail, Billy Sol Estes, integration, love and war along with a beautiful rendition of "When Johnny Comes Marching Home". The second half featured their old time rousers "Hatchet Lizzy" and "John Birch Society" and, in spite of the top- ten appeal of these songs, they were presented tongue-in- cheek to a receptive audience. (As a note of local historical worth, UBC was mentioned once.) For those who went, it was an enjoyable evening. (For those who didn't, remember that the Chad Mitchell Trio doesn't sing for Coke or Dairy- land . . . yet. —harold shachle? jazz TflajoJi CDVuuvd wmlng to Q£J On February 2 at 8:30 p.m., the stage of the Queen Elizabeth Theatre will see the start of one of the most exciting jazz concerts ever to play Vancouver. The participants will be the Modern Jazz Quartet and the Barney Kessel Trio. Both groups are simply the very best. • • • The personnel of the MJQ are John Lewis, piano; Milt Jackson, vibraharp; Connie Kay, drums; and Percy Heath, bass. Kessel, probably today's best jazz guitarist, will be working with local musicians Don Thompson (bass) and Terry Clarke (drums). To say the MJQ has the impact of a big band might at first sound ridiculous. But once you've heard the group, you'll believe it. The MJQ have a drive, beat, and excitement that is almost unbelievable for a small group. Their music is highly intellectual, structured, and knowledgeable. Most of the credit for this goes to John Lewis, the musical director of the MJQ. The excitement of the MJQ could be described as the power of understatement, but this is not to say they don't swing — just listen to Milt Jackson turned loose on something like his classic Blues- ology. One reason for the MJQ's BARNEY KESSEL . . jazz guitarist JOHN LEWIS . . . arranger, pianist world-wide (especially European) popularity is their willingness to try anything. Their repertoire ranges from traditional or standard jazz to film sound-tracks, from music of the sixteenth century Italian corn- media dell'arte to third stream. Another reason is the group's sound of unity and affinity. There is very much a group sound, but the individual talents are never lost. In the MJQ's case, the whole is much greater than .the sum of the parts. • • • Charlie Christian once told Barney Kessel, "The main thing is to concentrate on swing." So now try and stop him from swinging. Kessel is self-taught and learned to swing so naturally and easily that he'd have a very difficult time showing someone how not to. This ease and drive is the greatest feature of Kessel's style. Big bands, Jazz at the Philharmonic tours and the Oscar Peterson Trio have all known Kessel's guitar magic. Kessel plays the guitar much like a horn, using a single- string approach to give his music a firm and definite sound. • • • Kessel is also something of a musical intellectual. His music is structured and interrelated as much as the MJQ's. Another similarity here is Kessel's and the MJQ's feeling for the blues — which are made for both groups. Kessel especially had "funk" and "soul" long before other jazz musicians were aware that these were something to consciously work for. Let's put it this way: If you miss this concert, stop calling yourself a jazz buff. It's going to be quite a show. —tony hudz potlatch Potlatch, a littlemag put out by the Creative Writing Dept. is now on sale.

Burnaby New Democrat Gordon Dowding said government neglect has caused a crisis in the care of the mentally ill in B.C. And, he said, one of the first things to be considered is a department of public mental health at UBC. "This would increase the number of quali: fied personnel in the field," he said. Dowding charged the Ben- net regime with causing a "serious situation" at Woodlands, the provincial government school for mentally retarded children. "This is the only public facility for care of these children, and it is strained beyond belief," he said. He said the ratio of qualified personnel to inmates has decreased although the number of prospective inmates has increased to 8000. He suggested the provincial government increase land available to the school, and authorize larger operating grants. Modern students asterisque BERKELEY, Calif. (UNS)— Students are being sexually, titillated by asterisks, not pornography, an editor of Playboy magazine told students at the University of California here recently. Paul Krassner, in a panel discussion on pornography, said the practice of replacing an obscene word by asterisks has produced a generation of college students who are ex cited by asterisks.

Offending students could be in deep trouble if further gambling continues, he said. The Brock management committee has set up two sub-committees to make periodic checks on the games room to observe possible gambling, litter, abuse of equipment and the behavior of spectators. Leitch said students found gambling or abusing the equipment will be taken before the student court. "The manager should report this sort of thing," said Leitch. Leitch said he was satisfied with the way the room was being run now but that there had been past mismanagement. "These committees are things that should have been set up a long time ago," he said. The AMS constitution prohibits gambling of any sort on UBC grounds.

Saskatchewan protested to the league president who decided to award the games to Saskatchewan after consulting the league executive. The decision moves Saskatchewan into a first place tie with Alberta. Both teams now have four wins and two losses. • • • Utendale played for UBC in 1960-61 and was the Birds top scorer. This means he was playing illegally for the Birds that year. R. F. Osborne, UBC P.E. director and a member of the W.C.I, executive said, "Neither athletic director Bus Phillips nor myself were aware of Utendale's professional status when he played for UBC." The Birds play the Huskies in Saskatoon this Friday and Saturday and must win both games to keep their league championship hopes alive. THE SKI BUM Last February Innsbruck afforded the skiing enthusiast an exciting if not somewhat quieter preview of the Olympic races taking place this month. Upon arrival in the city, finding a room in a "Gasthaus" in an old part of town was an easy matter. It would cost only ninety cents and a full-course meal $1.20. The old country tradition of singing over a card game and beer or wine never failed to complement an evening, and if nothing else, the latter would break down speech inhibitions and allow you to join the crowd. In the morning the yellow Postautobus was five minutes away by foot through the winding streets lined with close, over-hanging buildings. • • • A half an hour's ride would find you on the hill at Lyls, and you'd soon make your way to the downhill course. If you trespassed while attempting to gain a vantage point, a gutteral "Halt!" from one of the omnipresent Austrian soldiers forced you back. Once the race began the excited babbling of ten tonic dialects always became an awed hush as Perillat, Schrauz, Zimmerman, Lacroix and other top skiers raced by. Then the voices would burst forth in applause and assessment. As the race continued, interest dropped, and many racers went unnoticed amid the time reports and general speculation. By TIM ROBERTS It was the same on following days at Lizaur for the ladies downhill and the slalom events, where precision, strength and speed never ceased to amaze. And then you'd return to Innsbruck to the quiet of the old country nights. It was, after all, only a preview. • • • Now prices will have doubled and tripled, the city will have taken on that international flare, and buses will be taxed to their limit over the newly-paved roads to the hills. Crowds will require your being in as good a physical condition as the racers themselves. The vocabulary of the Austrian soldiers will be hard- pressed to keep people behind the barriers. Excitement will be amplified at the races, and the nights in the city will be lit with celebration. Innsbruck seems to have every hope for an Olympic success, and now they even have snow.

Friday, January 31, 1964 THE UBYSSEY Page 11 MULLEN'S EYE VIEW OP BIRDS The term "absurd" has been applied to the suggestion that UBC could at some future date compete with the larger universities of the U.S. west coast. Granted that the transformation of Thunderbird sports from their present state to a level at which we would provide competition for these schools would take a long time. But to me there is no reason (given some clear and progressive thinking on the part of some of the school's leaders) why UBC cannot do so someday. Far-fetched? No, sir. • • • When we columnists get an idea in our heads, we tend to forget or to overlook obvious answers to our arguments in our hurry to slam our thoughts down on paper. A case in point is the assertion in a recent column by one of us that scholarships would cause no improvement in UBC sports because of poor high school athletics in the city. Ignoring the originator's misrepresentation of a local high school's success south of the border, I feel safe in suggesting that some form of financial aid would yield an increase in the quality of UBC athletic teams. How about the Vancouver bred BC. Lions who chose to head south after their high school days? People like Paul Seale, Pete Ohler, Greg Find- lay, Barney Therrien, Jim Carphin, and Pat Claridge, all sought to further their athletic careers in U.S. colleges. • • • Not to mention the local products currently undergoing grooming in American institutions: Mike Webster (Notre Dame), Bob Umemera and Ken Ferguson (Utah State), and George Dennis (Montana State). The word is that Mr. Shrum intends to build a gymnasium among his academy's first (Structures. The chances are that he believes SFA can make a run at UBC, and leave us S.O.L.. He may be right. • • • Once again, I remind you that UBC's size and location are much more favorable to the development of a large scale, and eventually big-time intercollegiate program, than are;those of many U.S. institutions with thriving athletic set-ups. And remember, nothing can surpass a good collegiate sport program in bringing to a school the blend of student enthusiasm and public support which seems so far to have eluded UBC. LIZ PHILPOT . . . off to Duncan Girls go all ways for sport By JANET CURRIE Three of UBC's women's athletic teams hit the road for some competition this weekend. In volleyball UBC goes to Longview Washington with nine other teams to compete in the Pacific Northwest tournament. Last year UBC placed third in the competition. • • • The team consists of Diane Godfrey, Gail Gilliviar, Vera Clemons, Lauretta Teshke, Uta Forstbauer, Diane Longmuir, Jackie Bell and Roz Izum. UBC's grasshockey team travels to Duncan to play Queen Margaret's School. Both women's grasshockey teams, the Varsity and UBC will play. Four of UBC's top grasshockey players, Liz Philpot, Merill Adehead, Pat Nichols and Diane Oswald, are making the trip. Five members of UBC's women's swim team will be going to Seattle to compete in the Pacific Northwest Senior Women's Swimming Championships. • • • Over 600 swimmers from B.C., Washington and Oregon will be in the event.
