Who the hell is Vol. XLIX, No. 58 VANCOUVER, B.C., FRIDAY, MARCH 15, 1968 Fast action follows book brief The UBC student library report has prompted strong action by library staff. Head librarian Basil Stuart- Stubbs said Thursday the library has been working on the recommendations of the report since they first became known early in 1967. The report was recently summarized and then published in The Ubyssey Tuesday. "We've been working on the advice of the report for some time now, and dozens of things have been improved," Stuart- Stubbs said. "Students complained about the short hours of the library, so now we're open until midnight and on Sunday mornings." More signs have been put up ►in the stacks to direct students after some complained they became lost. The report contained several complaints about first and second year students creating noise and confusion in the main stacks. The library instituted a policy at the beginning of the last winter session prohibiting them from these -areas, Stuart-Stubbs said. Complaints of poor heating and lighting have resulted in a revamping of the heating system and proposed replacement of light fixtures in the main stacks, he said. "Loan privileges to faculty members have been cut to some extent but they kick too much about proposals for short term loans." Efforts are being made to inform students of the workings of the library, said Stuart- Stubbs. Next year students can take an audio-visual instruction course on the library as well as tours. The course will feature closed circuit television, slides, and tapes. Some controversial practices will have to remain despite complaints, he said. "Students will have to continue to show library cards when entering the main stacks. If they did not, it wouldn't be long before there were all sorts of people besides UBC students using the library. "And it is impossible to allow phone renewals because we have an automated checking system that depends on having the library card in order to work." Levying fines must also continue especially in cases where there is a hold on the overdue book. The lack of seating space, severely criticized in the report, will continue until more money is given to the university by the provincial government, Stuart-Stubbs said. "We're hoping we will get the money for a new undergraduate library, but we need capital grants for that." — georga hollo photo GEOLOGY STUDENTS who recently complained their building is held together only by ivy have established an ivy chart indicating the deteriorating condition of the ivy on the building. Hippie image of CYC outdated says Clarke Widespread criticism of the hippie image of the Company of Young Canadians is outdated and misinformed, CYC director Alan Clarke said Wednesday. "The people should worry about the hippie and school dropout problems rather than whether these problems are within CYC's jurisdiction," said Clarke. Only four or five of the 20 CYC volunteers working with city youths are in hippie projects, he said. "Canadians should be much more involved with the problems of their young people in the cities." The legislation under which CYC was set up authorizes involvement in co-operative education. People should be less preoccupied with CYC's constitutional position regarding education. They should be upset about the frustrations in the conventional education system, he said. Answering charges that the CYC's involvement in experimental schools is unconstitutional, Clarke said: "If there's anything unconstitutional it is in the legislation, not in CYC." CYC workers are active at Knowplace in Vancouver and the Barker free school in Cloverdale. Clarke said he was disappointed in the federal government's 20 per cent cutback in the CYC budget this year. The cutback is much more serious than it sounds because it is on last year's budget, not next year's needs. CYC and the general youth volunteer phenomenon is growing fast, he said. The company is getting 1,200 applications a year. One new request comes in every day from groups or institutions who want CYC volunteer help. But the group cannot fill the requests because of the budget cut. IN ALBERTAf ~7Z T^^efEsmsnt*,- March result- fee hike review EDMONTON (CUP) — Shouting, placard-waving University of Alberta students Tuesday forced their provincial government to attempt to stave off a tuition fee hike. The 3,000 students, armed with a 6,500-signature petition, marched a mile and a half from the UofA campus to the provincial legislature to protest the raise. Premier E. C. Manning announced after a meeting with student leaders that his government would review the operating grants it gives to the university. UofA board of governors recently recommended a $100 increase because they claim the grant is insufficient to maintain the university's academic standard. The increase would bring UofA fees to $400 a year — still among the lowest in Canada. For medical, dental and grad students it will mean fees of $500. As students stood in the 22 degree weather and 30-mile-an- hour wind, education minister Raymond Reierson came out to hear student union president Al Anderson state the students' case. "We're here to show many students are concerned about the fee increase," Anderson told the minister. "The upper and middle income brackets are already over-represented at this university. "A fee hike will accentuate this situation. "Students' incomes are not keeping up with rising living costs," he added. "A fee increase could mean many students would not be able to afford university." The crowd cheered Anderson but booed when Reierson told them their fees were not a government responsibility. "Your board of governors sets fees," he called through a megaphone. Student leaders later met with Manning and four cabinet ministers in a council chamber. Tbe government promised after the meeting to review the university operating grant at its next executive council meeting and investigate charges of inequalities in distribution of student financial assistance. Law students condemn discriminatory arrests UBC law students followed their professors' lead in protesting the arrest of 15 persons in front of the courthouse Saturday. By Thursday afternoon, 114 of the faculty's 398 students had signed a petition protesting what they called the abuse of the legal process in the arrest and dentention of the 15. The arrests were discriminatory and may have been illegal because of the allegedly defective warrants, they said. Stripping and searching the defendants was unreasonable, and setting bail of $50 for an offence which carried a maximum $25 fine was oppressive. The students also condemned the use of an order-in-council to discriminate against an individual or group on the basis of his appearance or any other arbitrary criterion. Copies of the petition, started by first year law students, go to attorney general Robert Bonner, the federal department of justice, mayor Tom Campbell, the Vancouver Bar Association and the admissions committee of the UBC law society. Exam times up next week Students must wait until next week to learn dates of their final exams. Exam schedules will not be posted until early next week, according to registrar's office spokesman Andy £ Wilson. | Schedules had earlier been expected to appear today. "We ran into an unexpected group of conflicts," WIl- :; son said. Exams begin April 16 — the day after Easter Monday ^ — and continue until May 3. Page 2 THE UBYSSEY Friday, March 15, 1968 — fred cawsey photo PADDY SHERMAN managed a grin during Gabor Mate's attack. 'Papers must change to meet times By NORMAN GIDNEY The information explosion, electronic media and the need for more background explanation are radically changing newspapers, Vancouver Province editor Paddy Sherman said Thursday. In a debate with UBC senator Gabor Mate on the role of a newspaper in society, Sherman told a noon hour audience in Brock the newspaper ten years ago had a staple news diet of accidents and routine crime. Today, he said, more than 60 per cent of the news in his paper is about events outside B.C. Mate disagreed with a claim by Sherman that ideology is dead on the editorial pages. "When Sherman says ideology is dead he's ignoring the facts," Mate said. "The dominant ideology in North America is corporate liberalism. Fred Wood represents corporate liberalism at its best," he said. Mate quoted a recent issue of Vancouver Life that Wood was connected with both downtown dailies and many prominent Canadian corporations. Mate said there was no conspiracy between people like Wood and newspaper editors — they just think alike. He also said American news coverage of many important world developments — Vietnam, China, the Greek military coup d'etat — are either biased and unfactual or incomplete. Mate charged the war in Laos in 1959 was fought in the headlines of the American press. "The function of the press," Sherman answered "is to supply a kind of minefield through which government walks." It should also be a mirror of society and try to interpret to the vast middle ground of the population the actions of the progressives and reactionaries, he said. This, said Sherman, is the most rewarding role for a newspaper. Sherman said television is unable to present the interrelation of abstract ideas because of space and time limitations.

Program to aid housing planned at conference ANN ARBOR, Mich. (CUP) — A conference on low-cost ^student housing at the University of Michigan March 1-3 produced plans for a United States organization to seek tax relief and direct financial aid for student housing co-ops. Two hundred students from 41 universities in the U.S. and Canada attended. It was the first such large-scale conference of campus co-operatives in several years. Howard Adelman, a professor at York University in Toronto, said the Canadian government has loaned more than $14 million to student co-operatives on 11 campuses in the past five years. He said the government is now financing construction of a $5.7 million, 10-story building for Rochdale College in Toronto, a coop college-in-residence democratically run by its 800 members. Trevor Thomas, director of the college housing program of the U.S. department of housing and urban development, pointed out low-interest loans available for student housing. But these loans are only available through universities, he said, and only •one non-university-sponsored co-op has ever been granted funds. The conference was hosted by the student corporation at the Michigan campus which operates eleven houses. A second meeting in Chicago later in March will lay the groundwork for the new national organization. Classroom squeeze on, education grants short TORONTO (CUP) — More Ontario students will get money from the government next year, but they'll also be crammed into larger classes. Observers say these are the main results of the Ontario government's universities budget handed down Tuesday. Government spokesmen said the increase would allow the universities to improve the quality of education. But presidents of Ontario universities claim the opposite. They predict larger classes and a widening student-professor ratio. They also complain many special programs have been ignored by the budget. MORE THAN LAST YEAR The government has allocated $209.3 million to operate the province's 140 provincially- assisted universities in 1968-69. This is 40 million more than last year's 169 million. The grants will support an expected 82,000 students, up from current enrolment of 73,000. Of an additional $32 million earmarked for student assistance plans, $26 million will go to the province of Ontario student awards program (POSAP), almost double the $13.7 million set aside for POSAP last year. The increases in operating grants are in the form of a bigger per-student grant to universities. Last year, universities got $1,320 for each full- time student. The budget increased this basic unit to $1,450. The government two years ago adopted a system of formula financing to determine university grants. The grant is figured out by multiplying the number of students at the university by the basic per-student grant of $1,450. The system also makes adjustments for differences in costs among faculties. HIGHEST IN CANADA The grants were announced Tuesday by Dr. Douglas Wright, chairman of the university affairs committee, an advisory body to the government. Students to vote on ed ombudsm Education students can elect their own ombudsman next week. The position was created by the new education council and will come before a general meeting of education students for ratification Thursday. Education president-elect Gerry Olund said Monday the ombudsman will be chairman of the student-faculty liaison committee which airs student complaints. "He will hear complaints from students and present them to the committee," Olund said. Nominations for the post close today at 1:30 p.m. and the election will be Wednesday. Olund also said applications for several education committee positions are now being accepted. Applicants are sought for seminar rep, returning officer, special events rep, grad rep, night school rep, Ubyssey rep and intramurals rep—both men's and women's. "The per-student grants are the highest in Canada," he said. Quebec's per-student grant unit is $1,400. Ontario's is $1,450. Wright said the increases would improve the quality of education. "While the increase in the per-student unit is 10 per cent, rising costs of living are only four to five per cent," he said. "Anything above the five per cent can be used for improvement." But the committee of presidents of universities of Ontario Wednesday issued a press release disagreeing with this conclusion. They claim the grants were not sufficient to maintain the already unsatisfactory student- faculty ratio. Faced with an anticipated 12 per cent enrolment increase, the committee says, the universities can't afford to hire additional professors. This will mean larger classes for students and a resultant loss of contact between students and profs. COMMITTEE COMPLAINED The committee complained development of special programs will have to be curtailed. Dr. H. G. Thode, president of McMaster University, said in a statement Wednesday it will be hard to maintain quality. "It will be impossible to launch several new programs we had contemplated, let alone nourish other programs that have been started over the last two years," he said. He said planned expansion of library holdings will have to be slowed down along with planned improvements in some doctoral programs. University of Western Ontario president Carleton Williams also said there would be some academic cutbacks as a result of insufficient government grants. Ham, frog at trial MONCTON . ;-;>:■-,- ■ ■£?**$ -•§* wages guerilla artfare By REILLY BURKE The chalky scrawl on a tar-paper wall across from the Ponderosa reads, "Graffiti is good". It's just a casual observation on the worth of a very much alive campus art form, but it reflects the almost universal delight evoked by these guerilla graphics. The opportunity to write on a vacant piece of wall or pavement provides a platform for the little man to ventilate his frustrations or to publicly communicate what he thinks may be a vital message. There is, of course, the familiar W.C. variety of wall writing which is usually short-lived due to the long reach of the Physical Plant scrubbing arm. This type of graffiti possesses a degree of vitality and resilience matched only by the Viet Cong, and continually regenerates itself much to the benefit of chaste little boys and girls, and the overcrowded facilities at Riverview. The more aggressive artists take to the outdoors with a modicum of stealth and quantities of paint, spray-bombs, brushes, and even rollers. Jock-minded pencil pushers from that other bush institution arrive nooturnally in their wheezing customised Vauxhalls to stencil "SFU" on our lovely architect designed sidewalks. A safe statement, mind you, and one that causes very little consternation. The red paint graphics of the "Fort Boys" are equally feeble. It's like a very famous person said to me one miserable rainy day — "So what?" A little muck is moved, however, when the character assassins arrive and draw public attention to the peculiar bedroom antics and anatomical preferences of certain faculties as in the "Engineers Eat" type of expression. There is no doubt that some of the engineers do, but whether they do or not is of no great concern to most people. As a result, this kind of statement is similar to the W.C. variety In its negligible impact. Socially motivated activists provide us with a more cerebral brand of mural literature, and the opportunity to vicariously enjoy some establishment tail-pulling. Unfortunately the best examples of revolutionary graffiti have been flushed down the toilet of history. Two years ago the hoardings surrounding the emerging medical complex sprouted eight foot high ** „' i^^ry^rfX- ■ tf'&'Jf,*"".'. *~'X$; XMyx¥f{ ~»dX'\ An organic folk art ... a political indicator letters demanding "LEGALIZE POT", which caused such strong repercussions that cracks appeared in the walls of the Seagram distilleries. During construction of the education facility a number of aesthetically desperate individuals mounted ladders and wrote "UGLY UGLY UGLY" in enormous letters across the side of the building. It was a witty and incisive billboard editorial on the sad creations of the campus monument builders. Perhaps if we had a disposable cardboard university instead of our super-rigid concrete Versailles we might see more of this ever changing but persistently lively art form. The kaleidoscopic potential of such a transient environment absolutely boggles my mind. ARE YOU CONCERNED?

SOLICITOR LOSES Cou-sii-J AL Tortured 9 Years by 2C0RNSandaWART Constipation Horribly unfair pp p Dead man had parsnip in bed . . . ■ A 22-year-old gardener was . probably under the influence of the hallucination drug LSD when he' jumped naked through a window at his home and plunged 30 feet to his death, a coroner said today. And when police searched his room they found a book on witchcraft, a case full of toads and a large parsnip in his bed, the St. Paneras inquest was told. The arardener, Clive Amor, of North Hill Avenue, Haringey, died as a result of a fractured skull. His father, Mr. William Amor, told the coroner, Mr. Ian Milne, that Clive had been acting " very peculiarly." He said he knew his son had: been taking drugs, but did not know what type. Adjourned At about 5.30 a.m. on June 2 he took Clive a cup of tea. Then a few minutes later he heard a crash of glass. His son, he added, had seemed quite all right when he took him the tea. Told by the coroner that a case of toads had been found on a table by the bed, Mr. Amor said his son had had them for a long time. Mr. Aliine a'.so mentioned that a book on witchcraft had been found in the room. Mr. Amor said he knew his son had the book, but didn't think he was really interested in witchcraft. Station Sergeant Eric Whelan told the inquest that in addition to the toads and the witchcraft oooik, he found " what I can only describe as a ivery large parsnip,"' in the b;d. Pathologist Mr, N.

Upon leaving the theatre short minutes later, I chanced to hear (as one does) a comment about "someone tripping in the funeral procession", a statement whose incredible triteness I leave the reader to affirm. Evidently this impotent witticism had issued from the lips of a particularly boorish Philistine. I turned around, fully expecting to see a tousle-haired, gum-snapping, freckled and besneakered twelve-year-old grinning at his comrade who, convulsed with hilarity, expressed their primordial satisfaction at the lad's insipid humor. Imagine then, if you will, my incredulity that the damning words had been uttered by none other than celebrated art nouveau critic — one Stephen Scobie! Well. If these words were created as an attempt at what some people might describe as "camp", then allow me to say only that the depths in which Ubyssey "culture" wallows is further below my helping reach than I had imagined. If however, they were spoken in a sincere effort to vocalize the majesty, and subtle eloquence of one of Shakespeare's greatest masterpieces, then . . . one can feel only pathos. Please do not misunderstand me. I am not demanding Mr. Scobie's resignation or even suggesting such an action (although at this point a proclamation of complete dissociation from The Ubyssey would of course, be the only right and honorable thing to do). I am simply expressing my astonishment, indignation and perhaps — yes — a trace of bitterness. A disillusionment of this sort is always painful. I must urge all those who share these troubled times with me to remember that, even with the world about our knees, we must try, somehow, to continue. DANNY SONNENSCHEIN arts 1 Ed. note: Our critic grovels in unrepentance. * be *m pr r Cello channels schmaltzy Strauss By ANDREW HORVAT The passion and vigour of twenty-two year old Jacqueline du Pre, British cellist, and the intensity of the Vancouver Symphony under Meredith Davies were out of place at the Queen Liz Sunday, March 3rd. By that I do not mean to say that the predominantly elderly, grey haired, ladies at the concert were unable to appreciate the predominantly nineteenth century programe. The absence of younger people, obviously for financial reasons, proved that at least in this instance, youth was not wasted on the young. Miss du Pre was sensual; she commanded the Schum- mann concerto, and she stole the limelight in the Don Quixote. She was nervous, but when she played, all her energies were channelled into her cello, and her instrument became the voice of a melodramatic Schumann, and a schmaltzy Richard Strauss. The orchestra was no less energetic in Daphnis and Chloe, certainly more moving than any recording could have been. But why must the Vancouver Symphony constantly play the classics? Surely some symphonic music must have been written after the Great War! Why must Miss du Pre be a medium for the nineteenth century? Surely she is capable of rendering the music of her own times as well as, if not better than that of her great grandfather. And even if it is the sound of the peerless masters that reverberates in that labyrinth-roofed Queen Liz, why must it terminate at the ear drums of tired business-men whose wives dragged them to the only Sunday afternoon social event in Vancouver? Now that Vancouver has a Symphony Orchestra that can play the prerequisites, why not have it play three unit thesis courses? But three to five dollars is too much to pay for a single performance of Jacqueline du Pre. Especially when the same outlay will buy a record of comparable value at a certain downtown discount record shop. The problem here is that a recording and a live performance just do not compare. A recording heard twice is simply a mechanical regurgitation, no matter how high the quality of that recording may be. A repeat performance by a live orchestra is never the same no matter how second rate that orchestra may be. The matter concerning the price is one for Special Events to decide, and while Special Events (or the Faculty of Music for that matter) is at it, they could arrange some contemporary music, from Carl Orff onwards, to be played on campus. Another solution to the money question might be reduced rates, or free passes for next year's youthful programs. ._ ci rrioku pizza TYiokiA Dine In — Take Out — Delivery Across the street from the Fraser Arms 1381 S.W.

(CUP-CPS) — A campus policeman has been suspended after shooting a University of Maryland student in the leg for playing a prank. Campus policeman Lenwood Holden, who shot Michael Fo- der, 19, while Foder was pulling down a bedsheet-banner from the first floor of a women's dorm, has been charged with assault to commit murder. Lt. Henry Nebel of the campus force told the Maryland Diamondback, the campus paper, that Foder had fallen and broken his leg. But a bullet was later removed from Fod- er's leg at the school's infirmary. Some witnesses to the incident said Holden yelled, "Stop or I'll shoot" before firing. Foder said he was so scared he just ran. university buildings when doling out capital grants. This could mean student union buildings, theatres, athletic complexes, etc., will get a higher share of the costs of construction paid through government grants. "There is every indication of a new policy being announced within a month or so," said James Bancroft, new director of the finance branch of the department of university affairs. "And the distinction between class A and class B buildings will go by the board." At present class A, academic buildings, receive government grants for 85 per cent of their cost. Class B, non - academic buildings, receive only 50 per cents grants. "The former policy just wasn't providing, that well, the support that was necessary," Bancroft said.

Friday, March 15, 1968 THE UBYSSEY Page 15 THP Clfl Ril AA Wrestlers try out I I I E *m l\k I EP \M mm\ Six UBC wrestlers will be By BJORN SIMONSEN As you are probably well aware of, this has been one of the poorest ski seasons we have had in years. This has been reflected both in the total number of people using facilities on local mountains and in the ski shop business. Ski shop operators report a considerable drop in business this year as compared to last and many shops have been left holding the bag with a backroom full of stock. This could be beneficial to the skier since this merchandise must be put on sale. Thus you may be able to pick up a pair of $150 skis for as little as $100. The biggest factor in determining whether or not it will be a good or bad year for skiing is of course the weather. Last year's record snowfall was caused by high precipitation coupled with a continual high freezing point SIMONSEN elevation. This year it has rained about as much as it always does but the freezing point has stayed around 5,000 to 6,000 feet, resulting in a very small snowfall. Late spring skiing may be very poor this year because of this chronic lack of snow. This condition was somewhat changed this week with Whistler receiving over 40 inches of new snow while the North Shore mountains got considerably less but enough to make them skiable again. Manning Park continues to offer good skiing as does Mt. Baker, if you are lucky enough to pick a sunny day. Whistler will no doubt be the best and probably the only area that can still offer good skiing after exams. Six UBC wrestlers will be trying for places on Canada's national team in the Canadian championships to be held in Edmonton this weekend. The wrestlers, part of the 22- man B.C. team, are Peter Rom- bough and Denny Boulton, 138 lbs.; Dave Gray, 154; Les Burguner and Bob Ormond, 171; and Chris Nemeth, 213. The first three finishers in each division will be invited to the national training camp which will eventually decide Canada's team. Field hockey finals UBC's field hockey teams will be playing their final league games of the season this Saturday. The Birds play Pitt Meadows at 1:30 p.m. on Spencer Field. At the same time, same place the Scalps play Hawks "C" and at 3 p.m. the Scalps play North Shore "B". The Tomahawks have two games at Pitt Meadows, the first at 1:30 p.m. against Pitt Meadows "C"; the second at 3 p.m. against Wasps. f/fanAty ef tying a Qiamend?

EOTTOfU MHCE JESSE* - Birds battle Columbus in crucial league game UBC soccer Thunderbirds are putting all their money into their game against Columbus Sunday at 2 p.m. in Callister Park. The big game will probably determine who will win the Pacific Coast soccer league championship because there are few clashes left in the 18-game schedule and the leaders are closely bunched. It is the Birds' last league game while Victoria and Columbus have games in hand, but coach Joe Johnson doesn't appear worried. "If Columbus loses to us, which I expect them to, then they will be two games behind with three to play and that is a difficult deficit to erase," said Johnson. "The team is eager to win, we want to prove that we are not up there by error." UBC has a good chance of winning the game as it has played well lately. Earlier in the season, UBC played to a JOHNSON 2-2 tie and a 1-0 loss to Columbus, but that was when the squad had scoring troubles. The Birds have other advantages going for them as well. They have the best goals average in the league, a talent which will be helpful as a tie-breaker. There has been no decision yet on a protested game against Victoria Oaks, and this is good. In that game, the Birds were on the wrong end of several bad calls and the referee was purportedly not too consistent. Johnson might come up with a few surprises in Sunday's game, just to confuse Columbus. Fourth year defenceman Jim Berry could be moved up to forward to add scoring punch. He scored two goals last weekend and led the team to a seven goal second half against South Hill Luckies. Rugger men hoping to get a Boot out of SFU squad By JOHN TWIGG The UBC rugby Thunderbirds will get a big boot out of Saturday's game against Simon Fraser University. The game, which starts at 2:30 p.m. in Thunderbird Stadium, is for the Boot. The Boot is the new trophy donated by last year's Thunderbird rugby team as a memento to now-retired coach Brian Whightman. Apparently, near the end of the last season the players swiped Wightman's boots, and, knowing that he was going to retire, had them gilded and mounted. One boot was presented to Whightman and the other was set up as the trophy for the annual SFU-UBC match. UBC should win the game as the second division team, the Braves, have already beaten SFU, but it was early in the season. The Clan has recently beaten UVic, while the Birds only tied UVic. It is the Clan's big game of the year and they are going all out to win. There is widespread support on the SFU campus and there's a rumor that their pep band will attend the game. UBC coach Donn Spence is planning to use an open style of rugby because this style has been more effective for the \Z79 SEYMOUR ST- es // iW-fabulous OttVSTCRS also -fearturT-ng EAm COtUMS Mhe MOJO ^^^«^*<-**» ^^_»icr < 1 MUKCH II* *» Ti ri Birds than a ball-control style. The open style also leads to more spectator enjoyment. The game will be played under international rules which means there are 40 minute halves and no substitutions. The rules may not help UBC because they have several injuries. Four first-stringers will not play and their positions will be taken by former Braves. Center Dave Austin is expected to lead UBC as he has played well in recent games. He is one of the surest tacklers on the team and has started to add some tries to the Birds' attack. Spence is looking for a win, especially after the disap- pointing southern tour. "We're going to break tradition and not choke against SFU," said Spence, as he AUSTIN smiled at coach Peter M u 11 i n s who was in the vicinity of the interview. "It will be one of UBC's last chances to prove our supremacy over SFU this year." It is also the Birds' last home game of the season. QhDOML (L (DicwwncL With* Qon$L
