German Youth Council Blasts Anti-Semitism BRUSSELS (CUP) Special— A representative of the 6,00,000 member German Federal Youth Council has denied any association of its members with the anti-semitic forces in Germany. The chairman of the council, Edmund Duda, declared recently that the organizations in the council, "have categorically dissociated themselves from these irresponsible activities," by what he called "hoodlums and some young people." He added that the council "protests against the identification of the young generation of Germany with such elements," and declares: "The German youth has nothing in common with those individual offenders." The German Federal Youth Council is a member of the World Assembly of Youth (WAY). NFCUS is the Canadian member. Mr. Duda stated in his declaration that, "This youth has shown that they are seriously endeavoring to overcome the Nazi past." Engineers Attack Female Education The first Inter-faculty Debates will be presented on Feb. 1, 2 and 3, in Bu. 203, 204. These debates ace being sponsored by an inter-faculty committee who is trying to stimulate more activities) between faculties. The Engineers will debate with Medicine on Monday: Resolved that "Education of women at the university is a waste of valuable time and money." Do not the Engineers educate their own women? On Tuesday the Frosh will tackle the Nurses: Resolved that "the Provincial govern- . ment scholarship system is inadequate." Arts and Agriculture will soberly debate that "The AMS rules regarding drinking al University functions be more rigidly enforced." By DEREK ALLEN "Keep the Drift out!" This is what Fort Camp Vice-President Eric Ricker says his system of council elections will do. He wants Council to pay the campaign expenses for candidates to fhe following, year's council. — " UBC LEADER CONFERENCE Next weekend will see the meeting of the Student Executive Conference on Campus. It is hoped that this conference will lead to a more efficient operation of campus organizations and will serve to reduce much of the apathy that presently exists. The conference has been planned to instruct potential club and undergraduate society executives on the fundamentals of leadership and organization. The program will consist primarily of discussion groups headed by campus leaders. Topics to be considered are: Friday: See CONFERENCE (Continued on page 6) DECISION Ricker proposed that Council could standardize the campaigns of all candidates in an effort to eliminate the advantages of rich individuals or groups in pushing a candidate by means of expensive posters and advertising. Ricker suggested that those aspiring to council could post a bond of perhaps $20, which would be refunded if he polled 10 per cent of the popular vote;, and that this would discourage those who did not feel they had a real chance for election. It would also "eliminate the advantage certain groups have," and encourage those who did not want to run with backing of a "group." In concluding his brief, Richer made two suggestions to the Commission regarding the recommendations they will submit to Student Council. ■!':' He said that they should consult with the Political Science Department and correspond with other North American Universities, Find out what the experts think, and see what others have done or plan to do, was his suggestion.

UBC To Get More Money Socred Session Pledges The B.C. government has promised UBC a new college of education and increased money grants. Lieut-Governor Frank Ross, in his speech from the Throne yesterday at the opening of the Provincial Legislature at Victoria, made this pledge along with several others concerning increased aid to B.C. schools and students. Receiving increased grants along with UBC will be Victoria College. The government also will give aid to school districts which have been unable to fin ance school construction programs because of the current tight money market. In addition, the government is negotiating to buy $8 million worth of school board debentures. The speech pledged that the program of scholarships, -bursaries and loans granted worthy UBC students at the last session of legislature will be continued and enlarged upon. In connection with Victoria College, Ross said: "My government has already recommended assistance to a capital construe* tion program which will see Victoria College enhanced in its status to that of a liberal art& university." Additional aid is proposed t# give superior teachers incentive to undertake post-graduate strata ies and special recognition i«; planned for meritorious service- by other teachers. The speech also promised » vigorous training progrartf "through which trades "an^wes-* tional training will be offered t« our youth to qualify them ad skilled craftsmen." - - j l^ftGETWO thj: ir^YssEY Friday, January 29, EDITORIAL Stimulus. SupQJi^icbcdl I The Ubyssey has decided to answer The Stimulus. Upon publication of the first Stimulus a little while ago, the Editorial Board chose to ignore the diatribes, believing that no one would take seriously the charges made. ; The second edition, however, is so flagrantly filled with mis-information, that we feel it prompts this sort of action. In answering the charges made by the editor of this publication we will go back to issue number one. We will. _ show where facts have been exaggerated and distorted; we will also show where the facts are completely wrong. Claim: An article was submitted to the Ubyssey which was 'turned down in favour of a 'less controversial article'. The Editor-in-Chief claimed the article was 'lost'. Fact: The editorial policy of the Ubyssey is to accept articles of a critical nature, only if any facts stated in the criticism are true. The Editor-in-Chief, using this policy as his guide, decided that this article did not conform with the conditons, and therefore dd not publish it. He did not 'lose' it. Claim: "... the vast majority of the paper's space is devoted to notices, sports, pictures, advertsiing, and useless news stories (e.g. tug-o-wars)", ;Fact: The main function of a newspaper is to print news. * In fact, according to the AMS Code, Article IV: "Among the principal functions of the Ubyssey . . . shall be the advance j notification and sufficient advertisement to the Societies' membership of the events listed in the Social Calendar of - the student handbook, together wtih the publication of such social or athletic events or other matters as the Sudent's Council may direct to the attention of the Public ! Relations Officer." This, along with the events that happen from day to day constitutes news. It is not the fault of 2 the newspaper that nothhig^eacthshaking hanpens on cam- i~ pus. However, if the major' news oh campus is a tug-of-war then it is pur function to report.on it as a news happening. , . Newspapers question and criticise on their editorial pages, not on the pages devoted tonews. Claim: "Why should the newspaper need advertising? Why. does not the Stu^nt'js,Oouneil^ive enough money.to allow the-newspaper tbrun indelJ.ent|er4$ly?" ; Fact: This "ShoWs ah ikhprance*"6f the costs of publishing a newspaper. A little inquiry would show that the Ubyssey, even with a virtually Unpaid staff, costs a comparatively astronomical suna. If council were to eliminate advertising and entirely support the paper itself, then a number of activities how. siipnbjrted by the AMS would have to cease. Advertising is a necessity, Claim: "Why should the paper be concerned with sports at all?" 'u •"' .Fact: As previously stated, the function of a,campus newspaper is to report on campus" events. As it is a fact that , sports are campus events (and events in which a great number of students are interested), then it is the duty of the newspaper to print them. ; . » These are some of Hgie alienations from the first Stimulus. The,publishers use*|$nvjdi«#4g-unents in order, to show .that the Ubyssey, shouljd become" a literary,and critical magazine. As was pointed put befpr^, jknd js reiterated — *h§ VEy§S#JT is a newspaper. In the most recent issue, .the publishers once again take broadsides against.xhe Vpif^t — and their broadsides have misfired. *' They claim: that Filmsoc was refused space in the Ubys- «f«>y to answer the criticism, of the filmsoc operation. This is jintrue: If an article, or a letter, had betm^uhmitte^, and if it had conformed to the Ubyssey's ejaitorktl policy, then it would have been printed. The 2Ubyssey does riot refuse to print articles of controversial nsjituse — as long as the facts .stated in these, sir tides are, the truth as far as ean be discerned. The Stimulus throws around a phrase 'the lowest common ,denominator' with dexterity. What this is.exactly, outside of arthimetic and algebra, we don't reaUy.,know. However, the Ubyssey, In functioning as a newspaper, caters to no denominator. We try, to the best of bur J_bmty7to report the news. A prnfessor or a student reads,the Ubyssey to,find out what is -happening on campus, no to search for material for critical ,je§s|ys. A claim was made that the Ubyssey falsely reported a feud between Cinema 16 and Filmsoc. The present relationship" Of Filmsoc and Cinema 16 has no bearing oh this issue, wtrich the Stimulus attempts to use as a basis for criticism- 'The truth,is that when Cinema 16 first appeared, they told •Council that their purpose, was to fill the .gaps that Filmsoc .left in film programming — in fact, hard feelings between the two groups were very much in evidence. A very 'scientific' endeavour was undertaken by the publishers of the Stimulus in doing a percentage breakdown of the Ubyssey's content. "They make the naive assumption that the paper appearing on Tuesday, January 26th, is a representative one. The fallacy of using one isolated item as proof is obvious, not only from the point of view of scientific accuracy, but also in fairness. A much fairer representation is to take the three papers in any week, and break those down. Since the Critic's Page appears on Friday, for example, to use a Tuesday paper as the sole;basis for criticism is absurd. Thus the Stimulus appears and criticises the Ubyssey. They do not criticise constructively. They.do not even recognise the function and" nature of the Ubyssey as a campus publication. They criticise only in terms of literary articles and intellectual criticism. The Ubyssey is a campus newspaper, containing within its departments expressly for the purpose of writing activities other than news reporting. The Critic's Page is a regular feature. The editorial page is in every issue, containing articles of interest. The Editors of the Ubyssey believe in criticism of activities on campus in two ways. One is through the reporting iOf mistakes and errors that occur; the other is through critical analysis on the editorial page. The editor-has asked several professors to submit articles. Not One has been received. Few serious articles from students have been received. The publishers of Stimulus apparently feel it is beneath their erudition to contribute material to the Critic's,Page. The true function of .the Ubyssey should be recognized. M the content is^popr, then the fault lies either in the.activities beinf covered or the manner in which they are covered. If Mr. Nixon desires the quality of the newspaper improved, then he is welcome to come down and use his writing skill; as a teporte?. ALLAN CHERNOV. DARWINISM THOUGHTS AND THEMES By DANIEL OSTROVSKY J. D. Hooker, 1862 "Your theory of evolution by natural selection • implies that if every organism had survived and produced offspring, then every kind of plant and animal that exists, and has ever existed, would have been produced without any natural selection at all (as well of course as myriads of others). In other words all the characters present in all organisms were the necessary consequences of the earliest and most primitive organism." To this Darwin replied "I do and have always agreed." Clark "Thns accepting Hooker's argument, Darwin was foreed towards the view that the earliest organisms though apparently so small and simple were really so gigantically complex that they contained the potentiality of producing all the jjther organisms that would ever exist on earth. It followed therefore that if true, the , theory of evolution would not abolish Paley's argument from design, hut would reinforce it a hundredfold. No wonder Darwin was disturbed. He had sought to escape from God; now .he found his old Enemy waiting for him in a new hiding place. His confusion can scarcely be exaggerated. In letter after letter he made the lamest excuses for his inability to think clearly. Intellectually, he said, he was in 'thick m«d.' Eventually he tried to avoid the dilemma with a laugh. If everything was designed, then the shape of his nose must haye been designed also. (Darwip felt rather sore about the shape of his nose.) So he challenged all and sundry to say whether his nasal profile was designed by the Almighty." C. E. Raven, 1943 "Darwin's letters exhibit a resolution not to follow his thoughts to their logical conclu-" sion." T. H. Huxley (speaking to Lord Ernie) "My dearyoung man, you aie not old enough to remember when men like Lyall and Mur- chison were not considered fit to lick the dust off the boots of a curate."- "I should like to get my heel into their mouths (the clergy) and sc-r-r-unch it round." Clark "Huxley did not at first take very kindly to the evolution theory. In days gone by he had written a slashing review against the Vestiges, and Darwin's Origin was along the same,lines. But when he saw that evolution would afford him an excellent means with which to vent his spite on the clergy, he accepted it, though only guardedly at first—"subject to the production of proof that physiological species may be produced by selective breeding ..." a proof that he never considered to have been forthcoming even to the end of his days." H. F. Osborn, 1924 "Although Huxley wrote on natural selection for thirty years, he never contributed a single original or novel idea to it." G. T. Romanes "Then with a suddenness only less surprising than it's (the argument from design) completeness, the end came; the fountains of the great deep were (To be continued) THE U9YSSEY Authorized as second class mail by Post Office Department, Ottawa MEMBER CANADIAN UNIVERSITY PRESS Published three times a week throughout the University year in Vancouver by the Publications Board of the Alma Mater Society, University of B.C.

Sir: The latest issue of the sheet entitled "Stimulus" contains a breakdown . of the contents of the Jan. 26 issue of Ubyssey. It is interesting to make a similar breakdown of the "Stimulus" contents. Thirty percent is devoted to abuse of -Mr. Lum, Mr. Sinclair and the Ubyssey. Forty-two percent up with film reviews. An article, or presumably humorous intent, on the poem "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" occupies 25 %. The remaining 13% is given over (reluctantly, one feels) to editorials on drainage and free speech. From the continued criticism of the Ubyssey, it is obvious that those responsible for the "Stimulus" are still under the misapprehension that a university newspaper should be a little literary gem devoted exclusively to titillating the academic appetites of the intellectual elite (i.e. Arts IV students). A newspaper's first function is, by definition, the presentation of news; commentaries and opinions are of secondary importance. If the "Stim.ulus" purports to be a newspaper (which it certainly is not), where, then, is its news? If it makes no such claim, why waste valuable space on vitriolic attacks on the Ubyssey? These gentlemen have already been asked, and I will ask them again, whether they could not better emlpoy their obvious talent by joining the Ubyssey staff, rather than indulging in pointless and destructive criticism? The high percentage of space devoted to film reviews: is interesting when one learns that Mr. Nixon is FilmSoc's Presentation Manager. Now this is advertising-— somehting to which Mr. Nixon takes great exception when it appears in Ubyssey. It may be paid for, and it may not; the pointis that it is there, and that FilmSoc and Cinema 16 will benefit from it. Mr.- Nixon feels there is nothing wrong with FilmSoc paying its way; his criticism of the amount of advertising in Ubyssey, therefore, becomes not only illogical, but^ hypocritical. A word on the ^Twinkle" article. Now really, gentlemen. This has been done before, many many times — we have recently been subjected, in the Ubyssey, to two such themes on Mary's Little Lamb. It may be clever, but it has long ceased to to be funny, and it could never have been described as defying. Is this the high literary standard you would have us adopt? or are you, too, suffering from the complaint the Ubyssey has long endured — lack of good material? —IAN BROWN, -_ "Frosh".

Friday, January 29, 1960 THE UBYSSEY PAGE THREE Beatnik For Hire Lands on TV Wire TORONTO (CUP)—A beatnik-for-hire business that started as a joke mushroomed into an NBC television appearance for a pretty 20-year-old U. of Toronto co-ed during the Christmas holidays. An ad placed in The Varsity began the series of events that catapulted Ries Karvanaque (ad- (mittedly an alias) onto the Dave Garroway show, to read a poem by A. A. Milne as beatnik poetry. The ad stated that Ries was for rent ■— with chaperon. For $5 she would attend parties, wakes or other events. Another $5 was charged for chaperon. Parties often fall flat without a topic of conversation. Clad in a black sweater, a black skirt, and black stockings, Miss Kar- vanque was to be it. For an additional sum she —• the ad stated — would read beatnik ^literature. Immediately the Toronto Telegram jumped onto the trail with a front page picture and story. Then radio station CHUM leapt onto the bandwagon, and used an interview on three broadcasts. WUSC Travel Scholarships Three scholarships to Israel, Hong Kong and the West Indies are available to Canadian university students through World University Service. The first scholarship is awarded for postgraduate or research study at any university in Israel. A knowledge of Hebrew is necessary. The award is from eight to ten months commencing November, 1960. Deadline for application is Feb. 19. All instruction is given in English at the University of liong Kong. The University has Faculties of Arts, Science, Medicine, Engineering and Architecture. Deadline for application is Feb. 29. The Federal Government of the West Indies is sponsoring the third scholarship for graduate study. Completed applications should reach the Office of the Commissioner for the West Indies, British Guiana and British Honduras, 2100 Drummond St., Room 460, Montreal, P.Q , by June 20. Application forms may be received for the Hong Kong and ' Israel scholarships by writing to The Chairman, National Scholarship Committee, WUS, 22 Wil- cocks St., Toronto 5, Ont. Further information concerning the three scholarships is available through the local WUSC committee, Brock Extension. Next the Canadian Press had picked up the story. It then went to New York, where it was carried by the Associated Press, and discovered by NBC. By that time the monkey- business was serious business. Miss Karvanaque's manager, Gelfellyn Ignatzio— a "third year student — said that by this time, "It was too late to do anything else, so Ries and I went into business." ' "I indoctrinated her with Zien on the way to New York," Ignatzio said, "but she didn't get a chance to use any of it." She faced the comeras, and solemnly read to the audience from A. A. Milne's 'Winnie-The- Pooh'. Miss Karvanaque was supposed to do a five-minute interview, but she proved such a success that she was worked into the show. Nancy Kovac, a top American fashion model, was also on the show. The producers decided to have the two girls face each other. "So there they were," Ignatzio said, "Miss Kovac had a three hour hairdo, and an expensive white dress. The makeup had been neatly patted on for the occasion, Ries wore a black sweater, and skirt, and no makeup. It was hate at first sight.' "Of course there's nothing new with your thinking, but I don't mean that as an offence to you," Miss Kovac said. Garroway asked the two girls if they were antagonistic towards each other. "I LIKE here", replied Miss Kovac. Everyone turned to Ries. "I'm feeling friendly," she said haltingly, "but I got up in a good mood this morning." You could tell, what Garroway thought about the comparison after the show, when he said, in what almost beat vernacullar, "There is nothing more disheartening than a pretty face, period. You know?" MR. HOWARD BALL New Choral Leader CHORAL SOCIETY ed Mr. Harold Ball, ARCT, is the Choral Society's new conductor. Since its inception the Choral Society has (in addition to its annual concerts) presented two radio shows and gone on a weekend tour every year. In accordance with its purpose the Choral Society will present a variety of music ranging from sacred to pops. The highlight of the performance will be choral selections from Porgy and Bess, the only American opera. Tickets may be bought at the AMS or at the door. Cost will be 75c for students, $1.00 for non- students. Fast Towards Better Understanding MONTREAL, Jan. 20 (CUP) —Fifteen McGill students are endeavoring to experience real hunger pangs by fasting for 48 hours. Each participant will be given a blanket and will sleep on the floor of the Union Ballroom during the two nights of the ordeal. The fast, under the auspices of the Canadian European Society of McGill, will be opened officially by a" conference on "The role of the individual in bringing about world brotherhood and in resolving international strife." The participants are undergoing the fast to get a better understanding of the billions of people who have never had enough to eat, and they emphasize that this is not a hunger strike or a protest. The College of Physicians and Surgeons of the Province of Quebec announced that they would send doctors to the marathon at various times to check the fifteen fasters. During the ordeal the group will discuss in detail many issues and initiate steps toward their solution. Some of the topics under discussion will be: "Can there be a saint without a God?" "Population explosion and birth control," and "Conflicting ideologies."

FRED LESSARRE Head of the School of Architecture Architecture in British Columbia has received much flattering commendation this past year, and the University should rightfully feel some glow of reflected glory. Eleven*buildings were chosen as the best and most significant pieces of architecture in Canada and of these five were in Vancouver, including the War Memorial Gymnasium, the John C. H. Porter House, the B.C. Electric Building and the Queen Elizabeth Theatre, in the design of which members of the University Facglty have had an important part to play. This year, in the Pilkington Glass Company Travelling Scholarship competition between the best students in the Schools of Architecture in Canada, fhe two submissions from U.B.C. won first and second prize. Many other distinctions have accrued to members of the faculty of the School, to graduates and to local architects and their buildings. In such a happy atmosphere of success it may seem strange to some that the School is changing its programme of training. It is a young School graduating its tenth class, while other Schools of Architecture in Canada are graduating their fortieth or more class. Perhaps it is just because the School Is young and the local architecture is not overly cluttered with the past and has been able to grasp the realities of a new architecture for our age that a change of educational ideas in this field have found ready acceptance. As professional men architects are many things. They must combine a deep understanding of physiological and psychological man and of his institutions, a basic knowledge in building physics and engineering, a sound judgment in the arrangement of spaces and building components and a creative apresiation of the factors which make a building fine: a piece of Architecture. The technique employed in Schools of Architecture to bring all of these aspects JAZZ CENTRE FOR VANCOUVER, designed by 1959 graduate in Architecture Gene Kinoshita, won first prize of $2500 in the 1959 Pilkington (Glass) Awards — photo by Ray Grigg. FEATURES ON FACULTIES mi wi into a meaningful educational expericence is the project method. Students relate, employ and develop the theory through the creative solution of building projects. While the Architects' increased responsibilities make it essential that they acquire a good broad grounding, it has become clear that this can best be done prior to seduction by the creative work and prior to the all-engrossing and time consuming concnetration demanded by the projects. The new programme will rejquire a minimum of three years and a 65 percent average in Arts and Science. During this time certain pre-requisite*courses will have to be taken. Following this liberal educational foundation, a further three years are occupied in concentrated professional studies in the School of Architecture. This replaces the current one year of Arts and Science and five years of Architecture which is typical of Schools elsewhere. At present an increasing- number of Schools are changing into a graduate or semi-graduate programme. Many of the senior and most distinguished Universities, such as Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Pennsylvania, Minnesota and others, have also introduced a major in Architecture for the Arts degree, which permits the student to obtain a professional degree with a further two to three years in the School of Architecture. We, at this University, urge the students to obtain their B.A. or B.Sc, prior to proceeding to their Bachelor of Architecture Course. The School also offers graduate courses approved by the Senate of the University last Spring. A student proceeding to his Master of Architecture degree is required to choose one of three options: Housing, Structures or Theory of Design. While this is new, for the last eight years a two year graduate course in Community and Regional Planning has existed within the School and some of its graduates are now planning many of British Columbia's municipalities. The reputation of the School and its Staff in Planning has resulted in students being sent to it for special training through the Columbo Plan Programme. These students come mainly from Idonesia and South-East Asia, and also from the West Indies. This special training activity is in its third year. The School looks forward to the construction of the Fine Arts Centre in which it will find new quarters. Architecture is the Art of Fine, Building and has always been intimately associated with painting and sculpture. Recently science and engineering have become very important in the design of buildings. This resulted in a move away from Fine Arts into Faculties of Engineering. This is a proper and legitimate move as long as Architecture does not forget that it is the "art and science of fine building", the "mother art". Remaining a member of the Faculty of Applied Science but housed in a Fine Arts Centre should provide the proper and balanced setting for the education of Architects. To move from the huts will seem to the staff and the students of the School an encouraging sign of the recognition it deserves for achievements already accomplished under the most trying circumstances. It will be a challenge to raise further the level of architectural education at the University — leading to the eventual production of better and more beautiful cities for people to live in. t This prattyv pretty something must re4at» somehow t©Ar*kit«-tur«. or H.:wvvM^.iio&Im-4m-«'' coffssi and ba&A foh inAphcdwn By PETER CRUIKSHANK Ubyssey Features Writer It is often true that at universities the most exciting thoughts and ideas are produced out of conversations over coffee or beer, than out of lectures. A striking example of this occured fourteen years ago, when two students sitting in Brock Hall came to the conclusion that UBC needed a School of Architecture. It was probably a decision no less momentous than many that are reached in over-coffee conversations; even considering at the time, February 1946, the closest Canadian School of Architecture was at the University of Manitoba and there was no plan whatever for such a school at UBC. Bsuyinvdnq of "ci7lovstmimJt" Nevertheless, unlike so many decisions of this kind, it was not forgotten with a sigh of dissolutioned idealism and a "What can we do." The two instigators of the idea, Peter Cotton and Frank Bankes, acted to make their dream a reality. Their first step was to form the Pre-architecture Club whose membership was made up of the numerous people sympathetic to the 'movement'. Cotton was elected as the club's president and Bankes was made secretary. By far the greatest majority of the club's members were frustrated architects enrolled in engineering. Because of lack of money they were unable to journey to Eastern Canada or U.S. schools of architecture. Club mov&d Old The club having been formed did not stand still. Question- aires were sent out to high schools to assertain how many students would enter a UBC School of Architecture. Local artists and architects were interviewed and their help enlisted, as was the help of the Architectural Institute of B.C. Dr. MacKenzie also gave the club his support. Seven months later UBC had a School of Architecture — created for the most part by two students who believed enough in their ideal, to work to make it a fact. The UBC School of Architecture became the fourth school of its kind in Canada. It joined the already established schools at the University of Toronto, McGill, and the University of Manitoba. The Ecole des Beax Arts in Montreal has since added an architectural school. JjzaaqaM {jJohkh CUons. Professor Lasserre, the present head of the school has been in charge since the beginning. For the year of 1946 he could have been nothing less than the head; he made up the entire staff. Alone he instructed the 35 first year students and eight • second year students. Because of the newness of the school there were no students in third, fourth or fifth year. y e m contrast, for 1959-15*60 there are 111 students registered /in. architecture, in each of the. five years.

'herefbre, we have to reorganize and look around for terial to work with for our community. The only answer (hat is to start with the children.

You can't expect flowering of the creative mind in an epoch which con- nns its children to endless examinations. I am speaking inly of the examinations in design — aesthetic decisions not ralways instantaneous. If we can produce children 3 are healthy, sensitive and wise, rather than the children 3 are" brawny, clever and efficient, we can train them in techniques of production (personal or collective) both atively and scientifically. Some of them we can teach to specialists in design and architecture. temperamental artists live in south "skid-row" huts By PETER CRUIKSHANK Ubyssey Features Writer It would seem that with the inception of the School of Architecture back in 1946 those people respbnsible for faculty buildings worked on the following premises: architects and artists, artists are often known to work in poor surroundings, therefore the architects should work in poor surroundings. And so with this conclusion in mind these thinkers forged ahead and erected-— with the aid of a number of rejected army huts (1914-1918) — a nucleus of buildings to which the reference poor surroundings would be distinctly flattering. These buildings were to bear the name School of Architecture — in extremely small print. It wasn't that the architects were ashamed really, rather the amount of money budgeted for the sign merely precluded any larger print. JtumptohWu} ?Cui& Still Stand But the huts were to be only a temporary measure, of course. When the school had come of age it would certainly have a newer more modern building. Apparently, however, the school has not yet come of age. For today those huts still stand — a little less proudly, perhaps, than they did during the Great War — but, nevertheless, as erect as anything could with termites gnawing at its very heart. Some of you who have been indoctrinated by the Buchanan Building, the gymnasium, and even the library — that monumental tribute to Feudalism—may not even realize the decayed condition of the buildings which so ironically house the School of Architecture. You need only K ARCHITECTURE rom our historians and anthropologists we must expect lore exact analysis of the social conditions that have _uced good'design in the past. After all, everyone comes the world as a user of goods, whether he makes or buys n. I do not subscribe to Veblen's theory of the leisure ses. The "art of living" is for everyone. U>st of us are aware that medieval craftsmen, thousands Hem — after an apprenticeship to learn the techniques of trade, express themselves in the great Gothic age with i spiritual joy and "aesthetic form" that we stand astoun- at their achievments today. Yet they were simple men, great men in their time — the working class individual. i left us monuments in stone and wood that are great essions of an era. It is my opinion that they possessed hefic qualities that do not exist today. was George Bernard -Shaw who said, "Raphael with generations of painters behind him and all the tech- es at his command, could paint a mother and child, could hot paint a 'Queen of Heaven' as Giotto did." It is very thing, this precious something that Giotto had, Raphael lacked; that is the very essence of the quality rig in today's design and architectural eduction. The ons of spoken words, the thousands of hours spent in ling students to design reasonably well from a technical -point, are all wasted if this something, this exquisite •thing, is lacking. It cannot be put there; it cannot be ted like a serum. There is this element in the lowliest of > create a 'Queen of Heaven', no matter how poor the npt. >w, you will say, how will they know that they have it, ey don't have guidance.

What do the architects themselves have to say about their buildings? They seem quite philosophical. "I'll be out of here this year," said one, giggling hysterically and neatly side-stepping a new leak in fhe roof. "Some of the guys, think the huts are cold in winter, but I don't find it so." said another, snuggling into his battery-powered electric- blanket. "It's working by candlelight that gets me — damn wax all over the drawings." "S^laA diwiinq Jhsi $A8£dsi&i' One student architect felt that "Tbe huts are nice in spring. I feel more creative when I get close to nature, and with the robins nesting in the rafters, and the weeds coming up through the floor, and the solar heating (he meant the sun comes through the holes in the roof), they're the greatest." He smiled wanly and began his turn at bailing. It might be interesting to note that the high stools on which architects sit were first used by the UBC student architects; so that they might keep their feet dry. The stools then caught on among other architects,, though in most cases the necessity was lacking. Now you may say that, surely, I exaggerate the state of the architects accommodations; certainly some modern improvements must have been made. And I must admit this is true. As recently as 1951 coal-oil lamps were provided in the fifth year design studio. And a year previously an outhouse was built less than a quarter of a mile from the main body of buildings. The architects are especially proud of this as it came into being after a keen competition to which almost a hundred designs were submitted. It is possibly one of the finest examples of 17th century Baroque architecture in Western Canada. lAnfoAbm/de Qndudsmjt in Spdnq It is even alleged that the office of the dean boasts a crank telephone and a small coal fireplace. However, I do not care to support such a statement as it may lead to some amount of bitterness among the other professors; especially in light of that unfortunate incident of last year. I refer of course to the death by exposure of one of the professors when he dropped his hand warmer into the murky waters of his office floor. Yet despite all this the architects still have some small ray of hope, perhaps it is more of a spark, say an ember. A new Fine Arts building has been proposed and the architects have been asked (though not too loundly) to be a part of it. Not right away of course, for it seems that only half of it is to be built at first, and, alas the architects are not in that half. But this, of course, is only a temporary measure and. . .

Giant By Ernie Harder Ubyssey Sports Editor The Men's Athletic Association* is poking away at sleeping giant — this university's extra-^curricujar athletic program for men. Experts ary Tonight Calgary, Trail, Kelowna, Portland, Hastings and CJBC meet in the first Thunderette Invitational Basketball- Tournament. ; Calgary is favoured to meet UBC in the Fin^l SaturjJajn, night. The more probing they do, (the less they are what the real jProblems are — and how they ?can be solved. Several "problem' 'areas were' suggested and discussed briefly ,ajt the regular MAA meeting on ■\8pednesday. They include: .• ^General Athletic Policy, •JjPromotion and Publicity, • ^Student Spectator Interest, .^Active Student Participation, • ^Continuity within Student Organizations. MAA agrees that athletics are an integral part of the students' university life. , As it presently stands, no one really knows what the policy is in respect to the campus athletic setup —what's more, they don't care. Squash Team Visits Seattle UBC's squash team travels to Seattle this Saturday to meet the University of Washington in the first inter-collegiate squash match ever held in the Pacific Northwest. • Two similar matches are scheduled for later in the season. They go to Portland to take on Reed College and then host U. of Washington here. DON'T KNOW POLICY As MAA president Ian Stewart suggested, "If we don't know what our policies toward athletics are, how should the general student body? A significant sum is approved annually for athletics, but students council does not know what it's for, or what's happening —they couldn't care less!" he emphasized. It was suggested that men's athletics was not receiving the publicity coverage and advance publicity, particularly in the Ubyssey's twice weekly sports page, it was suggested that future sports editors be awarded an honorarium. ATHLETIC NIGHT Plans for an athletic night % -stimulate interest in students athletics were also discussed. ■ A committee has been set up within MAA to study further the possibilities of a special athletic campaign to boost campus sports. In conjunction with publicity for the University's athletic organization, MAA . is arranging plans for an athletic brochure. President Stewart stated, he will be visiting several fraternity meetings in the near future, addressing members on the subject of campus athletics.

It is becoming increasingly more difficult to stage important campus events without clashing dates. The MAA will work toward better co-ordination of athletic events. Lack of continuity within student organizations was also discussed at Wednesday's meeting. Members blamed this for many of the problems which are being passed on from year to year — without ever being solved. This year, however, MAA is hoping to find some of the answers. They might — if they don't run out of time! BRAVES COAST TO EASY WIN UBC Braves buried Hollins under an 83Jpoint barrage in a City Junior League game Wednesday night. Rollins managed only 39 points in their abortive reply. The Varsity squad jumped to a 41-19 half-time lead and coasted the rest of the way with their second stringers. HOST SEATTLE Braves host Seattle Sandpoint Navy at Memorial Gym this weekend. The game goes Friday night at 6:30 despite the cancellation of the Deitrich-Collins vs Jayvees game. " Al Ross ted Braves scorers Wednesday night, pouring in 12 points. Pete McCollOugh and Ian Mathison also got into double figures, scoring 11 and 10 points respectively. Preliminary rounds go Friday night with 'Calgary vs Hastings at 6:15, Portland vs Kelowna at 7:45 and UBC vs Trail in the feature game at 9:15. Saturday afternoon qualifying rounds will be at 12:30 and 2:00. Finals of the Consolation round will be at 7:00 and the Championship game at 9:00 p.m. Saturday. The Calgary team comes to the tournament with a high rating. They were third in last year's Canadian Senior 'A' Tournament. Trail is at present leading the East Kootenay league, while Kelowna is rated at top Senior 'B' team in B.C. The Portland team is a younger club. DOUBLE KNOCKOUT The tournament is run on a double knockout system. The three winning teams will draw at the end of the first night of play. The winning team, will get a bye to the final while the other two play Saturday afternoon. The consolation round works in the same manner. Entertainment Saturday night will feature a Free Throw Competition, between., each team's top shooter. The two local teams are at present second and third in the City league. Hastings boats a 4 win-6/ loss record. Thunderettes only losses, have been to the Richmond Mer-- chants, this year's counterpart to the Eiler team- Diane Beach, Marilyn PeJer-, §on and Anne Lindsay are expected to lead UBC scoring. Diane currently- holds fourth spot in city league scoring. Thunderettes were defeated 65-29 by Richmond, Wednesday night. B.usy Weekend For UBC Athletes Although several of UBC's athletic teams .are—away Atom- home this week-end, UBC gymnastic team will host the University of Washington at the gym.
