For crisis soke THE UBYSSEY give us some money Vol. XLV VANCOUVER, B.C., FRIDAY, MARCH 8, 1963 No. 62 Macdonald's helper named Victoria College registrar Dr. R. R. Jeffels has resigned as assistant to the president to become registrar of Victoria College. He will assume his new post on July 1, the university announced Thursday. An administration spokesman said no successor had yet been named. Dr. Jeffels was one of Dr. John Macdonald's top aides and a co-author of the Macdonald Report. He taught as a professor of French before joining the administration staff. UBC finances still in dark «M_iHH_-^H_Wi^^iHH_-_-_MHM_-H«H_-_MM Socreds promise start on colleges Education Minister Leslie Peterson took the first step towards implementing the Macdonald Report late Thursday nigh. & Peterson announced in the legislature that planning will begin immediately on the Burnaby college proposed by Dr. John Macdonald. Planning could take up to two years before construction is started, he said. DISCUSSION TODAY Peterson also announced that bills will be presented for the construction of colleges in Vancouver, the Okanagan and the Kootenays. He did not mention anything about UBC's own financial plight. However, discussion over UBC's operating grant is expected to take place this afternoon in the house. Peterson also announced Thursday that Notre Dame College, a Catholic institution at Nelson, -will become the province's first private university. And he confirmed that Victoria College will become a university. Dr. Macdonald, in his report released in January, called for Students urge trek, strike to back JBM The campus is ready to back Mac. Students interviewed in a Ubyssey survey Thursday said they were overwhelmingly in favor of striking or.trekking to back the request of Dr. John Macdonald for a $2.8 million increase in the university operating grant. Meanwhile, a student com-<^ the immediate establishment of a four-year college in Burnaby and two-year colleges in Vancouver, Kelowna and the Kootenays. He also called for establishment of an academic commission to set educational standards in the institution and a finance commission to administer funds. Peterson's announ cement came as students, faculty and alumni began planning action to protest the government's failure to give UBC the operating grant it requires. ONE REFERENCE Peterson made only one reference to UBC, and that was outside the house when he talked to reporters. He said the government is carrying on negotiations with the Board of Governors over University finances. Dr. Macdonald's budget called for a $2.8 million increase in the operating grant. The government gave about $1 million. NEW FRONTIER of squash world include Bob Werner (top) and Al Campbell.

Jan Skinow, Eng. II: "There's IMMEDIATE ACTION Thursday, The Ubyssey interviewed 53 students on the financial crisis. Forty-eight said they favored immediate action. They were, however, split on what action to take. Slightly more than half favored a Third Great Trek, while the rest favored a student strike. Some students suggested a one-day strike be held and that students use the time to march to the Burnaby college site. PUT PRESSURE ON There are two issues at stake: • The government's refusal to grant UBC adequate operating funds is one. UBC got only aj third of the operating grant in-1 crease it required. j no doubt UBC needs the money, but we're going to have trouble justifying the huge cost to the people." PUBLIC SYMPATHY Others interviewed also felt the campus should get the sympathy of the general public before demonstrating. Some also felt a strike might have a bad effect and would diminish any present support. However, one student sum- med up majority opinion: "The students have got to take it to the public. UBC needs the money. Nobody else will do it for us. • Dr. Macdonald's report is the second. It is believed any; march or strike would put pres-1 sure on the government to speed up implementation of the report..' Students made the following comments: j Marvin Malkin, Arts I: "Bennett doesn't give a damn for a couple of thousand students because it won't affect his vote. We have to raise hell to let people know what this is all about.'

"After that, the radar signal from the base- which guides it becomes weaker and it could be possible for an enemy bomber with stronger radar to turn it around and send it back to its base," said the graduate aeronautical engineer. .

GARY NIELSON . . . we're no twerps Bird Calls will return Bird Calls will once again be heard on campus. Student council was unanimous in deciding that the name of the student telephone directory should foe called Bird Calls. Gary Nielson, forestry president, said the only thing associating the* student telephone directory with campus life was the picture on the cover. Bird Calls is traditional, he said. It not only has reference to telephone calls but denotes reference to the University athletic teams. Council dropped the name last year because advertisers, it thought, were too unwilling to pay money to promote their product in a book called Bird Calls. It was too ■ undignified. UBC's ambulance gets transfusion UBC's new ambulance is ready to rip. Sir Ouvry Roberts, director of UBC traffic, said Thursday the new vehicle has been supplied with a two-way radio telephone and "all necessary first aid equipment required." All the necessary first aid equipment, however, is one small box—about two feet long i and six inches high—painted white with a red cross on it. The truck was not even carrying a stretcher when Ubyssey reporters checked it Thursday morning. Men staffing the vehicle will have completed first aid examinations by next week, Sir Ouvry said. So now, says Sir Ouvry, if you're injured in an accident, phone the University fire department. If you can't phone, use the fire alarm • system. The fire department will send the fire truck or the chief's car to the accident, and will notify the traffic office and the nearest downtown ambulance. If the accident is serious, UBC's ambulance will carry the injured to hospital or treat the victim until the downtown ambulance arrives. If the accident is minor, Sir Ouvry's men will give first aid and radio the downtown ambulance to turn around. The vehicle is available 24 hours a day. It's a security patrol truck during the night and a traffic control unit in the sunshine hours. now—er—fully equipped and Chartered flight all ready to go AMS has formed a "century club" and they're looking for members. Council needs 100 people with $100 who want to go to Europe. If they join by March 15, council iyill charter a special flight to Europe. Cost of the charter flight is $388, but AMS needs the $100 deposit from each student before it can arrange the flight. The AMS charter fare is half, the regular fare to London.

At its Wednesday night meet- MIKE HUNTER . serious business pledge New editor es to backMac The Ubyssey will give full support to Dr. Johui Macdonald's crusade for UBC finances, editor- elect Mike Hunter said Thursday. "I am aware that this university, as well as higher education in this province, is fighting a most crucial battle," he said. "It is the newspaper's obligation to give as much help as possible. " Hunter, 20, an Arts IV student, succeeds Keith Bradbury as editor of The Ubyssey in May. He has been a member of the staff for four years, three years of which have been on the editor- ial board. AUTONOMY ESSENTIAL Hunter said it was essential The Ubyssey's autonomy be maintained and the newspaper kept free of student council domination. The Ubyssey is the student's only check on student government and the administration," he said. "It should be, and will be, a free voice, a medium for student thought. "It is the best college newspaper in Canada now. I sincerely hope it will continue to be the best college newspaper in Canada." Hunter graduates this year with majors in psychology and English. He will continue in graduate studies. ing, the committee decided to concentrate on hockey, football, basketball, rowing and rugby. It is hoped the move will alleviate financial problems now plaguing athletics, and relieve charges of "mediocrity" in the sports program. The committee now administers 26 men's sports, with emphasis on variety and participation rather than with emphasis on variety and participation 'rather than spectator appeal. , INCREASE SNCOME i j The - policy change is an at- tempt to increase gate receipts, which now rarely cover game ! costs, let alone travelling ex- 1 penses. It is believed MAC is also considering hiring a full-time publicity man to push the major sports. i MAC is also believed to be from either the AMS or the Board of Governors. Students 'presently pay $4.60 per capita tin their AMS fee to men's athletics. Athletic director Bus Phillips said MAC would consider finances at its March 28 meeting. EXPAND COMPETITION "If we can solve our financial problems, it is likely we can solve all the others." he said. Advocates of the major-sport policy hope competition Can be expanded to include games with top Canadian and American teams in addition to present city and Western Intercollegiate opponents. The motion passed Wednesday asks that MAC aim for "the highest possible standard of competitive excellence in as broad an athletic program as possible and especially in football, basketball, hockey, rugby and rowing,' CREATE SPIRIT It says those five sports can "best contribute to the creation and maintenance of spirit on campus and goodwill in the community." MAC came under fire in a recent report by Science president Don Farish. Farish said MAC is "simply not the dynamic committee UBC needs if it is to support anything more than a mediocre sports program." He predicted MAC would fold in five year. Police uncover missing wallet GUELPH (CUP) Two young thieves who kept their burglary under their hat regret it now. They were apprehended by wrestlers in the gym dressing room of Guelph Federated College after a member of the wrestling team found his wallet missing. But the wallet remained missing until Ontario provincial police ordered one of the teen- aged boys to take off his hat. Police discovered the wallet sitting limply on the top of his head. « Kf J NOTICE TAKE NOTICE that the Student Court will hear charges of: Drinking and being under the influence of intoxicating liquor, in breach of By-law 11, section 2, and By-law 11. section 6 (b) (i) '(c) qf the AMS constitution, on the night of January 21st, 1963, in the War Memorial Gymnasium prefered against: Robert P.

How to vote Editor, The Ubyssey, Dear Sir: If properly used, the preferential ballot is the fairest way of electing a candidate. Unfortunately there appears to be a popular misunderstanding about the nature of preferential voting which renders the system both unfair and discriminatory. The popular notion is that of candidates A, B, and C, where A is most likely to win, that to give your favourite candidate, say B, the best chance of victory you should mark candidate A last on the ballot even if you fel he is 'more qualified for the position than C. In an election where a cand- date wins on the first count but loses on second votes, this kind of fuzzy reasoning can be dis- asterous. I propose that either (1) students be made thoroughly familiar with the operation of the preferential ballot (ie: that only the 2nd choices of the votes for the candidate who is already defeated are used and that it in no way helps candidate A if the most powerful contender C is put last in preference) or that (2) the election's committee abandon this obfuscating and exacerbating system for the simple and nondiscriminatory X ballot. Yours truly, BOB CRUISE Arts III • Freedom! Editor, The Ubyssey, Dear Sir: Your editorial in Tuesday's edition quoted Malcolm Scott as offering the Academic Symposium, among other events, as evidence of the capacity of student government to accom- plush worthwhile things. While not wishing to challenge the capacity of student government I must say that the success or failure of the symposium is no testimony to it. The symposium is planned and executed by a committee which is self-perpetuating and autonomous. I am not intending to quibble over a technicality here but rather to clarify the principles guiding the relationship of the symposium to the university ot large. Briefly, as is recognized by responsible members of student government, it is- essential that there be no restraint "upon choice of agenda or discussion. This is in the interest of all concerned directly, and of the university at large which must ideas which can only be evolved in a free atmosphere. Yours truly, W. TROTTER Arts IV * Unnecessary Editor, The Ubyssey, Dear Sir: Mr. Gaglardi has stated a clear challenge to academic freedom at the university level. This challenge can be disregarded since he is in no position to judge what should be discussed on campus and since his argument suffers from, a common fallacy—that of appeal to sentiment. However, his comment on "children" at UBC deserves severe criticism and should excite the strong indignation of the Students. Mr. Gaglardi would have the public believe that UBC students are immature, inequipped to make adequate decisions and to form sensihle convictions. Because of this Mr. Gaglardi feels impressionable "children" are being debauched by sinful professors. It has become increasingly evident that the Minister of Highways, himself is not above reproach. I would quote from Emerson: "Do not think the youth has no force, because he cannot speak to you and me. Hark! in the next room his voice is sufficiently clear and emphatic. It seems he knows how to speak to his contemporaries. Bashful or bold, then, he will know how to make us seniors very unnecessary." Yours truly, G. S. Briggs, President, UBC Philosophy Assoc. Residential college Editor, The Ubyssey, Dear Sir: Ronald Ma's proposal for a national graduate school is in many ways a commendable one. Not the least of these is the ready practicability of such a scheme. At present several government agencies provide research facilities for graduate and postdoctoral students in connection with various universities. Moreover experiments have already been made toward providing what one might call 'academic freedom' within government research agencies. Notably the advanced studies group set up by the Defence Board to pursue theoretical studies unhampered by the usual short-term pressures. The National Research Council, The Dominion Archives, The National Gallery, and the Department of Agriculture provide working facilities for advanced studies as a matter of course. Thus a national graduate school need not involve the provision of separate research facilities, merely the extension of co-operative arrangements already existant. What would be required would be a good residential college. As examples one might cite All Souls Oxford, or Mas- sey College Toronto. All Souls provides a lifelong haven for distinguished workers, eliminating once and for all mundane monetary considerations; while Massey College is designed to foster 'education by association' during the more limited period of regular grad studies. >\ To develop enduring stature in Canadian education, to stem the growing tide of scholasticism, (The development and perpetuation of useless knowledge for its own sake) we need a central college where close personal association of Theologians, physicists, poets, business-schoolmen hist o r i a n s, painters, and economists, can develop. Yours truly, McINTYRE BOYD Grad Studies (Physics) Wanted: Canadians in Moscow By YURI RIGIN Russian exchange student The Russian students can't help appreciating very much the initiative of UBC to exchange students between our countries. At universities and other higher educational establishments of the USSR there are more than 15,000 foreign students from 80 countries. But unfortunately there are no Canadians among them. At the University of Moscow alone one of every 15 students (the total enrolment 30,000) is a foreigner. However, the Russians can learn about the Canadian university life only secondhand—from American and British students. But it goes without saying that direct contacts among students of Canada and the Soviet Union are the best way of becoming acquainted with each other. • * * As a Moscovite I am naturally glad that a Canadian exchange scholar who will go to the USSR this autumn has chosen among all higher educational establishments the University of Moscow. Once it was the first university in Russia (in 1962 there were more than 4,000 universities and secondary specialized schools with nearly five million students). However, now only the faculties of humanities are in the original building. They include faculties of philology, history, philosophy, law, economics, journalism and oriental languages. The students who study natural sciences (chemistry, biology, mathematics, physics, geology, geography) occupy a new 32-storey building on the hills of Moscow. There is also a special preparatory faculty, where foreign students study only the Russian language for a whole academic year in order to understand lectures given in Russian. * * * Among 2,000 professors of the university there are many scientists whose names are known outside the USSR. About 900 Russian and 400 foreign exchange scientists do research work in four research institutes (mechanics, astronomy, nuclear physics, anthropology) which - are components of the university. It includes also five astronomic observatories, three museums (zoology, anthropology, geography) and a botanic garden. Personally I foresee that the only difficulty for a Canadian exchange student will be travel expenses. I say for a Canadian, because the student council of the USSR (the Russian NFCUS) fully pays all travelling expenses of Soviet exchange students. But I would hope that the visit of the first Canadian exchange student to the USSR will be the beginning of the permanent exchange between student organizations of the respective countries.

Jack ORNSTEIN I an open letter from god ^^■^"■^"^"^ Dear Canadians; When a professor at UBC questioned My existence, I was tempted to reveal Myself again, but due to circumstances entirely within My control, I decided that this letter would be more constant with My policy of nonintervention which has been in effect for several years. I have always found atheists and agnostics most embarrassing. Here am I RESPONSIBLE for their existence and they have the audacity to denv mine! I have half a mind to go back in time and unexist them but that would take too much time and as the physicists say, the universe is slowly dying so I have to suffer these fools gladly. * * * But now that I think of it, ARE they such fools? After all, I haven't given an an- pearance for many years. No person living today has actu- all SEEN Ma as, for example, they say Moses did. Now that I think of it. there's little evidence that I DO exist, as far as you 20th century people are concerned. So where floes this leave the inquiring professor? And where does it put those who tried to have him fired or jailed or silenced or burnt at the stake? Well, now, let Me see. I've deceided to make Dr. Remnant's philosophy courses mandatory for all those attending My college in the sky. You see, all who get to heaven are encouraged to go to college so that our standard of after- living here will be enhanced. And what do philosophy courses have to do with it? Well, they tend to make us want to question our cherished beliefs (e.g. that MEN exist) and to force us to be honest with ourselves in the light of all available evidence. Some of you Canadians haven't learned even the essential element of the democratic life, namely, to cherish the opinions of dissenters—for thus only can change or progress be made, or truth be aproached. " • • • Of course, all these remarks apply to Dr. Stroll who questioned the authenticity of one of those fellows who claimed to be My son. Jesus himself told Me just yesterday (yes, Jesus DID make it to heaven) that He disapproved of those who would silence these professors—for His message was to love and to tolerate, not to hate or cast stones. May I leave you with one last word of advice? Listen closely to the philosophers—■ they are men after My own heart—for they assume little and they try to improve themselves and their world. And these things are the essence of integrity and idealism— things close to any religion worthy of the name.

They trooped silently behind official night watchman Del Feller as he made his rounds. They followed him single file through the huts, down halls, into washrooms, in back doors and out front doors. They trailed him past the dining hall and past the water tower. . Then they stopped because Feller stopped. "Enough of this," he said, retreating into the office of camp porter George Mason. The 50 watchmen, all student residents of the camp, trailed Feller as a protest to his insisting that radios be turned off at midnight. Everyone thought it was a good joke, including Feller. Everyone, that is, except porter Mason. "If I get the names of those fellows they won't stay at any UBC camp again," said Mason. The impromptu night watchmen dispersed immediately at these words. Acadia Campers said they now intend to whistle the Colonel Bogey March as Feller makes his rounds. By GRAEME MATHESON Architecture students went scenery. They liked the scenery so well that they sketched it and are selling their paintings in the Lassere Building today and Saturday. Typical of pictures gleaned; from this setting was one like "Joe's Wife," a pastel sketch of an Indian woman. Vancouver's waterfront tugs, gillnetters and trawlers are favorite subjects. There is a pen and watercolor, for example, designed to exploit "stickiness"—the masts, booms and stays — on a trio of fish boats. This is one of the more prominently displayed pictures. Paul Merrick, director of the exhibition, said the main purpose of the sketches is to give students a chance to use different techniques. Some scenes came from a morning at Steveston. That was the day devoted to skies, said Merrick. And two pictures of the same sky look quite different. The intention was to learn the techniques more than to paint inspired canvases. First year architecture designed and made the advertising posters, while fourth year took care of publicity. to Ashcroft for a change of Pre-librarians establish club UBC has another club.

So comfortable. So amazingly easy. When I think that even a girl in her teens can endure years.of discomfort before discovering Tampax, I simply want to tell all my young friends to switch right away. Believe me, internal sanitary protection is so much better, there's no comparison! * * * There actually isn't any comparison between Tampax and "the other way." Tampax isn't "less this or more that"—it's completely different! No odor can form. No irritation can I take place. Nothing can! show, no one can know. And during insertion or I removal, your hands never touch Tampax—thanks to the satin- smooth applicator, and the convenient removal cord. By all odds, Tampax is the nicest way of handling what can be a problem. Remember, too, that Tampax was invented by a doctor and that millions of women have used billions of Tampax. Your choice of 3 Tampax absorben- cies (Regular, Super, Junior) wherever such products are sold. Try Tampax this very month and enjoy the freedom this modern protection gives you.

By MIKE HORSEY Basketball is supposed to be a smooth fluid sport, liberally spritikled with graceful gazelles leaping over highly polished floors. At times it is the cruelist and most brutish sport in the world. If you don't think that's true just take your overweight'frame over to the women's gym and watch the girls go at it. g: ;, .>, * ,„ - <*• - j-. I Twelve teams are happily hammering each other into submission at the annual B.C. High School Girls Tourney there. LEAVE BODIES Girls seem to inject a new sort of lustihess into the sport. Basketball is generally not considered a contact sport. But the girls' leave bodies all over the floor. Most of these amazon-like creatures gleefully pummel their fellow compatriots as they sweatily clomp from basket to basketbrawl. SOLID BALL The games aren't very high scoring but the girls have fun. No tricky razzle-dazzle hand- offs. No fancy dancy layup shots. Just solid, and is it solid, basketball. If you want to see Canada's newest contact sport drop over to the gym. You'll be pleasantly surprised. It's almost as much fun as watching hockey players fight.

Tne Ilh-1' threatened Thursday to take ice hockey out of the 1964 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck, Austria if the Federation didn't get a larger share of the television revenue. IIHF president Bunny Ahearne announced in Sweden —the present site of the World Hockey Championships-—that the Federation could make more money if . they conducted their own tournament. EQUAL SPLIT WANTED Ahearne claims local Austrian organizers are getting $300;000 from the European television network, Eurovision, and that the Federation is getting only $3,000. He figures if they conducted their own tournament they would get $125,000. Ahearne feels the proceeds should be split equally between the International Olympic Committee, the organizers, and the International Ice Hockey Federation. UBC assistant coach Bob Hinamarch said, the complaint won't change present plans. 3TILL TENTATIVE "I can't comment on this situation because it's the first time I've heard about it. I'd have to know more about it be- fore I could say anything." Athletic director Bus Phillips gave almost lthe- Same reply. "I don't know if it will affect present plans. Everything is ,tiu so tentative*. The Birds are expected to! play a series of exhibition games in Europe next January before the actual championships."

They saw some entertainment hockey, a game protested by the referee, an unusual collection of Brock loudmouths, and even a few cheerleaders. The fans who were there will recall an incident which almost abrubtly ended Saturday's contest in the second period. The Birds were ahead 2-1 when Manitoba was assessed a _er\ch penalty. Referee Gordie logue pointed to Manitoba's team captain Gerry Wilson to serve the two-minute sentence. He refused to go to the penalty 30X so he was given a 10- ninute misconduct and follow ng that, a game misconduct. • • • Manitoba still refused to put I man in the penalty box so 3ogue said he had called the ack. The referees decided to irpsh the contest. Hogue later explained his ide. "I warned Manitoba coach hree times about comments rqm the bench, I gave a bench >enalty to the first player I aw which I have the right to lOj. It happened to be number i (Wilson,, the team's best flayer). • • • *'You saw what happened." "I continued the game for the lenefit of the fans, because it [aesn't mean anything in the tandings." Manitoba had a different tpry, of course. They felt they ad.the right to pick toe,player o serve the 'penalty and that, he quid -seirve it on the.hepcluin-, tead of.jthe.penalty box..

After a brilliant performance in St. Catherine's last summer and the subsequent anticlimax and disappointment of the British Empire Games in Perth, coach Laurie West is determined to make his mark in the Pan Ams. "Since the games are in May we started our season early this year so we'll be at a p^ak for the Games in Brazil," said West Thursday. PCL team dares Birds; demand soccer rematch Columbus Italians of the Pacific Coast Soccer League have issued a challenge to UBC Thunderbirds' coach Joe Johnson. The Columbus team and its volatile army of fans were both embarrassed and indignant at the PCL's recent 3-1 defeat at the impertinent hands of the Birds and demanded a rematch. Coach Johnson, who still has hopes of getting his classy Birds into the PCL gladly agreed. Game will be played Thursday, 8 p.m. at Callister Park. Birds, meanwhile, have an active weekend ahead of them. They meet St. Andrews in a league game Saturday afternoon at Mclnnes Field. Birds have clinched the Mainland League title. UBC usually begins its season later than the American colleges, consequently the Birds are not in top competitive form until summer. Two meets precede the Pan Am games, one with the Lake Washington Rowing Club, who will represent the U.S. in the four with cox, four without cox and the paired oar shell. UBC will enter two fours in the Seattle race. In a retqrn match on Coal Harbour, Lake Washington will combine two fours to race in an eight-oared shell. A meet with traditional rival the University of Washington, is tentatively scheduled. Looking to the game, several South American crews are highly rated, but the Vesper Boat club from Philadelphia, the United States entry in the World championships last year, will be the Thunderbirds greatest worry.
