UBC needs friends, whether they be\nlegislators or members of the public at large. It needs them\nfor material benefits, and it needs them for more intangible\nbenefits.\nThese benefits have been won for us by the Open House\nCommittee, and we thank them for it.\nGUEST   EDITORIAL\nShould The Ubyssey\nBe Under 'Control'?\nSome of the things the Ubyssey has done this year\nhave been pretty unpopular, and highly-placed people on\nthe campus are asking, \"Do we have a responsible and representative press?\"\nA high-ranking administration offical put it fhi.s way: \"A\ndowntown editor is responsible to his readers and his publishers. Peter Sypnowich, too, must he responsible to someone.\"\nNow we should be grateful that Tho Ubyssey, unlike\nVancouver's dailies, doesn't have to kow-tow to the demands\nof its advertisers, pander to the thrill-seeking tastes of its\nreaders, or be subject to the whims of the moneyed man\nwho happens to own the paper.\nAbsence of this sort of \"responsibility\" is a blessing.\nAnyway, since when did \"a free and responsible press\"\nmean a newspaper controlled by the government? When we\nbrand a newspaper as irresonsible we mean that it hasn't\nlived up to proper standards, not that it lacks outside control.\nAnd what sort of control would an outside group give?\nOne student council reacted fast when Les Armour called\nthem a group, of gutless wonders. Greek-packed council\nhas been sensitive to attacks on fraternities.\nBut the vulgar trash of the engineering Ubyssey goes\napparently unnoticed. Those who raise the rumpus only\ndo so when their own special interests are attacked.\nBut when the authoritarians demand a paper that properly represents UBC students, they tip their hands. For a\ncomplaint of unrepresentativeness is an objection to dissent.\nThe demand for a paper which represents the outlook of\nthose in power is further evidence of the climate of conformity which now exists at UBC.\nHow about the fact that the editor-in-chief is elected by\na small group, the editorial board? Democracy does not always demand universal suffrage and complete freedom to\nrun. What would we think is we were told that admission\nto the University or the right to a job would depend upon\na popular vote?\nNow, anyone can become a member of the editorial\nboard of The Ubyssey. It requires a slight amount of writing\nability, hours of time, and putting up with some of the pubsters. Not everyone fulfills these requirements, but there's\nfar more opportunity for the average student to control the\ncampus press than, say, to get elected to Council.\nThe Ubyssey is now subject to the same controls that\nevery other AMS organization on campus is subject to. It's\napparently all right to Jazzsoc freedom because they reach\na limited group. Freedom only when it is ineffectual is all\nthat authoritarians offers.\nIf we have an independent paper, it means that it will\nhave the opportunity to bungle, to attack our own interests,\nand to embarrass us. But if wo are afraid of the dangers of\nfreedom, we must be satisfied with the sterility of control.\nDanny Goldsmith,\n3rd Year Law\nLiquor Denounced\nEditor, The Ubyssey;\nIn a recent article in The\nUbyssey, I read that a dance\nis planned for the support of\nthe rowing team, this dance to\nbe held in the Armoury. \"The\nonly flea in the ointment,\" we\nare told, \"is the problem of\nliquor. (There would necessarily\nbe a lot of drinking.\" Is this the\nprevailing attitude of UBC students\u2014that the only way to\n\"howl\" is to take from thc\nbottle first.\nI would rather like to think\nthat there are many more students who would be interested\nin, and would attend, such a\ndance, if they were assured\nthat drinking would not be a\nproblem. '\nOn March 2, President MacKenzie gave an address on \"The\nNeeds of this University,\" part\nof which is repeated in the same\nissue with the above-mentioned\narticle. Dr. MacKenzie said\nnothing about liquor as one\nof the needs. ,\nBut he did stress the need of\nour world for men and women\nwith university education, particularly in the field of human\nrelationships. That education\nhas many facets, social and recreational as well as academic.\nBut to be called a university\neducation, it must be uplifting,\nnot degrading.

Wed.,\nFeb. 16.\nEditor,   The   Ubyssey,\nDuring the Saturday afternoon's \"Open House\" celebrations at UBC, a visitor to the\ncampus who was conducting a\nsmall party through the buildings dropped in for a moment at\nthe publication offices of the\nstudent \"Ubyssey.\"\nA couple of pubsters in the\nbest of faith, grabbed two banjos and proceeded to render a\nsomewhat loud, and highly satirical duet, in which they dealt\nvery severly with the personalities and objectives of the\nSocial Credit Movement in Canada, and especially in British\nColumbia.\nThe song was witty, and the\nvisitor and his guests were\nmuch amused, though mostly\nfor reasons unknown to the\npubsters.\nThe visitor happendd to be\nDenis Grant, until recently president of Vancouver Burrard\nSocial Credit Association, and\nat present time editor of thc\n\"Bulletin,\" official publication\nof thc Social Credit League\nin British Columbia.\nP.S..This was just too damn\ngood to miss. D.G.\nChapel Suggested\nEditor,  The Ubyssey;\nIn the present glow of excitement over our new buildings;,\nsuch as the Forestry lab and thc\nArts building, has anyone given\nany thought to a campus chapel.\nIn a university where most\nof the students profess some\nkind of religious affiliation, it\nseems reasonable to expect that\nan inter-denominational chapel\nwould serve a felt need. Yet at\nthe same time, I realize that\nthere are problems of space\navailable and funds for the construction of such a chapel.\n' It may be that a chapel 4s\nonly a pipe dream on my part,\nbut surely there are some students and organizations on the\ncampus who would like to have\na p{ace of prayer available and\nwho would at least consider the\npossibility of a chapel.\nJohn Sandys Wunseh, Arts 3\nHow many B.C citizens were\ndeceived by this statement of\nSandy Ross on fraternities and\nsororities in the Open House\nspecial edition of the Ubysey\u2014\n\"the Greeks continue to make\nthemselves useful through philanthropies\u2014$2,000 for Multiple\nSchlerosis each year, plus various scholarships and projects\n- and by providing accommodation for several hundred stu-\ndents.\"\nThus self-indulgence masquerades as philanthropy. To\nsqueeze $1 for Multiple Schlerosis out of the philanthrophy\n\"Greek\" citizenry, from 5 to\n50 times that amount (the estimates vary) had to be spent on\nclothes, loquor, program costs,\netc. I'll pay $3 to the commerce-\nman who can give a satisfactory\ndetailed report of figures and\nestimates to establish the exact\nratio. The \"Greeks\" didn't have\nto use' charity as an excuse to\nhave a good time or vice versa.\nAnd all provincial and University dignitaries who acted\nas patrons for the Mardi Gras\nmust share responsibility for\nthis degradation of humanitarian principles; this self-indulgence In the name of unfortunate cripples.\nBut even had the \"Greoks\"\nnot committed this blasphemy,\nsuch extravagent dissipation\nwas irrational and insane under\nany circumstances. Fbr if in,\nour atomic age, the rich of the\nearth are not to continue growing richer and the poor poorer,\n{which situation .must finally\nproduce a human or nuclear explosion that will end all) the\nfuture will be too late for us\nto cut our lavish extravagances.\nA sacrifice of our present\nmaterialistic mania won't kill\nhappiness; it will substitute\ntruer and  higher pleasures.\nIts anything but philanthropy, (a desire to do good to all),\nthat motiviated the \"Greeks\"\nto build residences for themselves and their own. The \"paragon\" of inefficiency is a dozen\nstudents housed in their own\nlittle palace requiring separate\ncoking facilities etc. bringing\nthe per unit building and main-\ntainance cost to a maximum.\nHad the \"Greeks' given their\nfunds to the housing authorities\nin exchange for a guarantee of\nso many rooms in large joint\nresidences, more students could\nhave been housed for the same\namount of money. Another cqm-\nmerceman can figure out how\nmany more. Of course then the\n\"humanitarian frat men\" would\ncome into contact with a greater part of humanity.\nSandy Ross concludes rightly that the frats cannot be ignored. But let's not be so defeatist. If they're here 'to stay\nlet it be at .maximum value\nto society and not as a negligible quantity or even as .a detriment.\nQerard Oaechsel,\nArts 4\nLearning in School?\nEditor,  The Ubyssey;\nA writer in thc Open House\nissue of your' paper remarks:\n\" 'We learn not in school, but |n\nlife,' said Seneca in the year\n4 B.C.\"\nAs Seneca at that d^ate was\nhurdly likely to have been more\nthan twelve months old, it\nlooks as though the first half,\nat least, of that quotation contained a most impressive truth.\nO.

Then,\nVarsity changed their forward\nline and their scoring punch appeared more potent. Bruce Ashdown, continued his streak of\na point a game, by taking a kick\nfrom John Green and heading\nit home.\nWELL DESERVED\nIn the last fifteen minutes of\nplay, CPR came back to score\nand win the game. There goal\nwas well-deserved.\nVarsity's Sunday game with\nleague-leading Pilseners was\ncancelled because of the snow.\nThe game will go next Saturday.\nChief's also suffered from the\nsnow and their game was snowed out. Next Sunday's game\nwill be announced on Tuesday\nnight.\nSTEADY\nVarsity's steady defensive\nunit again held down the offensive rushes, allowing only\ntwo goals. Ted Smith, Ian Todd,\nJack Butterfield Bud Frederickson and Dick Matthews again\nslowed down the CPR rushes.\nGrasshockey\nEnds In 2nd\nVarsity's grasshockey squad\nwound up in second place in\nthe Lower Mainland Grasshockey League's final standings,\nby defeating a rough and ready\nVancouver team 3 to 2 over the\nweekend.\n* Braves showed far too much\nskill and speed for Ex-Tech.\nEven with 20 min, halves there\nwas no holding them. Personifying the dash and splash of the\nwhole three-quarter line was\nJohn Legge.\nA RECORD\nLegge set something of a record in scoring. Five tries he\nI made. Five whole Snes. This\n! brings his season's total to about\n17 tries. George Dollto and\nCllevc Nell scored one each,\nwhile Rajah Kronquist hoisted\none convert. Ex-Tech wasn't\neven in the game.\nBlurbs took ExBrit to task\nafter spotting them a penalty\nkick for three points. They rebounded back into the game\nwhen Ron Stewart slashed and\nclawed has way through six\nBrits for a three point try.\nFive when Bob Weinburg converted.\nLEAPS AGAIN\nStewart again led a 90-yard\ndribble to the Brit goal line, and\nburst over for an 8-3 lead. Other\nscorers were: Laurie Tuttle,\nbrother Ian Stewart, and a penalty goal by Weinburg to end\nthe game 19-3.\nThe game was slightly sloppy\nand erratic in spots, for it soon\nbecame evident that the match\nwas on ice for the hard-hitting\nBlurbs, and they relaxed and\ntoyed their lighter opponents.\nAPPARENT\nIt now seems apparent that\nthe Braves-Blurb contest will determine the leagues's best team.\nBraves have speed, skill, and\ndexterity, while Blurbs own the\njlower, weight, and crushing\ntackling  strength.\nMaxmen   Give   Their\nAll   In   Meet   Upset\nBy PETE WORTHINGTON\nUBC's swim team, hit by a recent blight of academic ineligibility, invaded Bellingham with the smallest team ever,\nto compete in the Evergreen Conference. Five of the original\nteam went, and no one, repeat no one gave Varsity a snowball's chance to even place. So UBC won the Conference championship 79 points to Western's 70 and Eastern's 53.\nEvery man on the squad bettered his previous swim times,\nthough on paper the UBC times\nwere far below those of the\nAmericans.\nTOO MUCH\nVarsity was expected to have\nabout as much a chance' of winning against their rivals, as was\nRussia's hockey team of squashing the \"Go-Go Vs\" \u2014 almost\nnil.\nCoach Max. Howell and assistants Jerry Elliott and Merv\nEllis dragged their triumphant\nathletes from the pool in a state\nof bewildered wonder. The boys\nswam themselves to near collapse, and as a result of this\nJim Peter-ish spirit, came\nthrough and won.\nUNFAIR\nIt would be unfair to pick individual stars, so-called. They\nwere all glittering. Doug Kilburn won in three events while\nGerry Van Tets won two breast-\nstroke races and was on the\nwinning medley relay team. Don\nFrancis swept the diving by 30\npoints, ihen swam a leg of the\nwinning relay.\nDune Mclnnas placed 2nd in\nthe 50 yard free-style and broke\na record in doing so. In the 400\nrelay he started the last leg\n15 yards behind, and prduced\nthe finest individual effort of\nthe day in closing the gap and\nwinning for UBC. In the 400\nMedley relay, with the championship in the balance, the boys\nspashed home the winners by a\nfin, to earn the title again for\nanother year.\nNEEDED POINT\nApart from those mentioned,\nManager Bill Young, Walt Otto,\nVon Wittgenstein and Cross\npicked up needed points. Eddy\nLee was .outstanding, as was\nBrian Harvey in the breast\nraces. Bob Debuysschev, Rick\nCheng and Dave McDonald delivered the  goods as well.\nThere have been few squads\never to display the spirit that\nUBC did last Saturday, and the\nstock of the underdogs rose considerably. The darkhorse reputation of UBC teams is growing.\nFRANCES MURPHY\nDANCE SCHOOL\nBArviaw Mil\nPrivate Instruction\nRhumba - Tango \u2022 Samba\nFox Trot \u2022 Walts.
