ALUMNI CHRONICLE LETTERS TO THE EDITOR\nDepartment of Classics.\nUniversity of British Columbia,\nDear Sir:\nPermit me to draw your attention to a sentence\non page 15 of the June issue of the Chronicle: \"The\nGreyhound was used as a coursing' dog in Egypt\nby the Pharaohs, and is mentioned by Ovid Zeno-\nphon (second century).\"\nIs this the same Ovid Zenophon who used to\ntake love-letters from Cleopatra to Marcus\nAurelius?\nYours very truly,\nGeoffrey B. Riddehough,\n(Arts '24).\nWe award a special and secret prize to Professor Riddehough for reading advertisements to the\ndreggs. Reading ads is its own reward, but we\ncannot let such industry go modestly by. Without\nwishing to put words into an ad-man'8 mouth\n\u25a0we feel that when the Doggy Wash Beauty Parlor\nsaid greyhounds were mentioned by one Ovid\nXenophon, the D.W.B. Parlor was referring to Ovid\nXenophon Junior, not Senior. No wonder Professor\nR. was for a moment confused. This is no reflection\non, him at all. On the contrary. We wish, however,\nto point out that while most magazines slant their\nstories to make you turn to the ads in relief, we\nfollow the opposite policy.\u2014Kd. Xotc.\nThe Editor,\nAlumni Chronicle.\nSir:\nSomewhat hesitantly I call your attention to a\nDoggy Wash Beauty Parlor advt. in the June issue.\nIt says greyhounds were mentioned by Chaucer.\nIt then advises us (on the strength of this information?) to have our dogs clipped to the tune of three\ndollars. Greyhounds don't need clipping . . . which\nis the sole advantage of greyhounds. But if they\ndid need clipping, what has Chaucer got to do with\nit? Chaucer isn't going to clip them, you may lay\nto that. I feel I have a right to protest, since I am\ndescended from Chaucer's sister. (This, oddly\nenough, is true.) In 20-odd generations, I must\nhave about one-millionth of Chaucer blood. Which\nmakes me one in a million. And that's more than\nyou can say about greyhounds, who are terribly\ninbred.\nYours faithfully,\nDavid Brock, Arts '30.\n.Is far as we can follow Dave Brock (who is a\nnice guy to follow in. every sense of the word\n\")iice\") writes in to complain about Geoffrey\nChaucer and assorted greyhounds.

Rhodes Scholar and member of parliament for Coast-Capilano, had been elevated to a member of the Canadian Cabinet as\nMinister for Fisheries. The 44-year-old Sinclair had\nbeen mentioned as cabinet material for several\nyears, but had recently sold his home in Ottawa and\nspeculation was that he was quitting politics.\nLawyers have been inveigling their way into the\npages of the Chronicle in their inimitable fashion\nthe past couple of issues but we are forced to run\na sequence to follow the picture and note on William\nH. Q. Cameron, B.A. '33 which ran in June ... it\nturns out that Bill Cameron's opponent in what\nmight be the last appeal to the Privy Council was\nnone other than his good friend Harry F. C. Spring,\nwho was the counsel for the appellant in the case\nof Sigurdson -v- B.C. Electric ... In the last issue\nwe mentioned Bill Cameron, but neglected to say\na word about Harry Spring . . . and Harry won the\ncase at that.\nHugh Christie, new warden at Oakalla, was\nfaced with a prison riot this month and came\nthrough handling the matter like a veteran . . . but\nWarden Christie who had warned the Provincial\nGovernment of the overcrowded situation at Oakalla, advised there would be more trouble unless\nthe prisoners accommodation was improved.\nEnrolled on a four year course at U.B.C. is Lee\nJung Ok, Korean interpreter with the Princess Pats\nfor two years in Korea . . . Canadian arm]? officers\nwho brought Lee to Canada are paying his tuition\nfees.\nAmong the new Canadian diplomats is a University of B.C. graduate, Vivienne Allen of Vancouver, who recently passed civil service examinations along with 23 other successful candidates.\n MAURICE'S\t\nZJne J-^ai-k IKouat Keitaurant\nana SHidewaln La\/e\nFAMOUS FOR SWISS and FRENCH FOOD\nFROGS LEGS AU BEURRE NOIR . . . capers . . . parsley\nFRENCH OMELETTES*. . . 20 different varieties\nMILLE FEUILLES STEAK DINNER\nESCARGOTS de BOURGOGNE\nBABA AU RHUM\nMERINGUE AUX MARRONS\nOpen every day, including Sunday, from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.\nReservations: West 200\n809 Park Royal West Vancouver, B.

Berry, the Alumni-\nU.B.C. Development Fund has reached new peaks\nin both participation and total amount subscribed\u2014\na record-breaking-result which reflects great credit\nnot only upon Fund Directors and representatives,\nbut also on the active interest and tangible expression of loyalty and support of U.B.C. alumni and\nfriends everywhere.\nIn 1952 (the Fund books close early on August\n31st), almost 2,200 individuals contributed $18,-\n109.36 in this fourth year of operation of the Association's voluntary annual giving programme designed to help U.B.C. and its students in a practical\nway. In those four years, a total of some $63,000.00\nhas been given\u2014an annual income which more than\nequals the income available from an Endowment\nof more than a half-million dollars!\nProbably the most remarkable and heartening\nfeature of the past year's effort is the fact that there\nhas been an almost 25% increase in over-all participation compared to the best previous year\u20141950.\nThere can be no doubt that in the long run, the\nnumber of people who are interested enough to\nbecome UBC \"shareholders\" through personal contributions\u2014regardless of the amount\u2014must be the\nyardstick by which the success of this excellent idea\nis measured.\nElsewhere in this issue, the actual records\nestablished by the various classes and individual\nClass and Fund representatives will be seen. The\n\"up\" totals of almost every class, together with the\nfine efforts of so many reps., is indicative of the\nsuperb way in which this plan of practical goodwill\nis proving its worth.\nMEMORIAL FOR DOROTHY MYERS\nIt is felt by some of the late Dorothy Myers'\nfriends that there should be a memorial in her\nmemory. Because of her interest in University\nwomen's affairs and also in Canadian art, a suggestion has come forth that a picture by a Canadian\nartist be hung in the Women's Residences of the\nUniversity. A plaque suitably inscribed would\nmark such a picture.\nAnyone wishing to be a part of such a memorial\ncould contact Miss Mary Fallis, No. 1, 3777 Cambie,\nVancouver, B.C., FAirmont 5987-L; Mrs. C.

Roberts, one of the original group\nwhich staged the \"Great Trek\" of 1922, was this\nyear's speaker at the annual Cairn ceremony on the\nMain Mall.\nMr. Roberts urged U.B.C. freshmen to meet\nchallenges presented to them at University with\nthe same characteristics of students who participated in the march that took them in 1922 from the\nFairview shacks to the present campus.\nHe told how the cairn, built with the original\nstones piled up in a mound by the first group of\nUBC students to visit the campus, was now a symbol of what university students can do when properly organized.\nHe said the trek was from the Fairview Shacks\nto downtown Vancouver and out to Point Grev.\nLater student leaders carried a 56,000-signature\npetition to Victoria, where delegation leader \"Ab\"\nRichards told legislators the Fairview Shacks were\ninadequate and urged a new start on the war-interrupted Point Grey site.\nOne month later, Mr. Roberts said, the Legislature voted more than $1,000,000 to the university\nbuilding program. The chemistry building went up\nfirst, followed by others.\nConstruction of UBC buildings started in 1914\nbut just as the framework of the Science building\nwas nearly completed, war stopped work on the\nstructure.\nNothing more was done at all, he said, until the\nprovincial government was spurred into action by\nthe campaign started by UBC students.\nU.

With the then-Provincial Secretary, the late Hon. H. E. Young, M.D.,\nLL.D., as chairman (platform guests included the\nLieut-Governor, the Hon. T. W.

ALUMNI CHRONICLE The Fiiner Thjegrs Are a Most\nBy PHOEBE BEEBE, B.A.\n(frequent contributor to Canadian Homes,\nNorth American Tomes, South\nAmerican Pomes, etc)\nThe Finer Things in Life! (I am not referring\nto Life Magazine.) Let us roll the phrase richly\nround our lips and even inside our mouths. We\nleave the University with a capital U, but what\ndoes it mean, question mark? It means a B.A.,\nexclamation mark! Nothing more. Can we interpret a symphony? No (Period) Dare we live\nwith a modern painting and permit it to enrich our\nlives? Never. We (and I use this pronoun in the\nsingular) do not even own a Canadian painting at\nall, dammit. And we think shame to ourselves,\nas the phrase goes. As it goes, as it comes, as it\nslides sideways, who cares? That's my whole\npoint, and that's why the Extension Dept. pays me.\n(Out of the funds it extracts from its pup;ls, never\nforget that.)\nLETTER DF APPRECIATION\nBy the way. old Phoebe has never had a letter\nof appreciation from the Extension Dept. All she's\nhad is letters appreciating the Extension Dept.\nLord)' (and she says this reverently, men), Lordy,\nshe doesn't expect the Extension Dept. to think\nof everything. Which is wrong of Little Phoebe,\nat that, because the Extension Dept. does so think\nof everything . . . heck, it even gives courses in\nHow to Repair Trucks Before They (Juit Running.\nBut to get back to the Finer Things. What\nprofiteth it a man that he should get a B.A. but\nnot get to the Symphony or the Art Gallery. Nowt.\nI will spell that . . . N-O-W-T. Nix. Zero. It\nleaves him feeling bereft and just awful, as if he\nwere suddenly caught between a professor of Art\nand a professor of Appreciation. It makes him feel\nhe is missing one of life's Finer Experiences. And\nmay the Lord pity him.\nHow often have you, clear reader, been caught\nin an art gallery with your awareness uncocked?\nHow many times has a beautiful symphony gone\nin one ear and out the other? Many's the time you\nhave listened to a costly phonograph record, carefully explained to you by an expert, and you've not\nunderstood what made its grooves go round, shame\non you.\nRecords! Let it be recorded! Recorditur\n(Latin). You may glibly say \"Recorditur!\" but\nin all modesty, can you tell the difference between\nthe records you should like and those you should\nabominate? Not you. You're fair flummoxed. That's\nbecause you have never taken an extension course.\nAnd that's what's wrong with our B.A. today. A\nbachelor's degree that doesn't incorporate an ex-\ntesion with it is of little use.\nI will go further. I maintain that a bachelor's\ndegree should carry with it an honorary LL.D.\nHeck, with everyone else getting LL.D.'s, why\nshould the students themselves stand out in this\nignomiuous way? In any true democracy, each\nstudent should become an LL.D. the minute he\nenrolls, and this will keep him from feeling1 conspicuous.\nI have always felt that an honarary LL.D. is\njust the thing to make its owner conscious of the\nfiner things in himself, and therefore conscious of\nthe liner things in life, in so far as he is still connected with life itself, which is a moot enough\npoint. I am acquainted with many an LL.D. who\nhas suddenly started hanging round the Art\nGallery and the Symphony Society in a manner to\ntouch all hearts. Only last week I was prowling\nround the Art Gallery (humming a couple of symphonies to myself the while) when I met a poor\nold LL.D. out of work. He was not onlv out of\nwork, but out of works of art. He faced me squarely\nand said \"Brother, can you spare a work of art?\"\n1 burst into tears, which seemed to please him a lot.\nThere is a lesson here for us all, so please accept\na free copy.\nI am quite sure that the P.-T.A. can help our\nchildren to make each other fond of great music and\nnotorious paintings. Instead of telling each other\ndirt_\\- limericks, teachers and parents can go in\nfor square-dancing, and in some mysterious way\nthis will make their chidren fond of Giotto and the\nSchool of Sienna, which is a good thing. It will\nalso make the little rascals fond of Brahms, which\nis a bad thing. ( Brahms wrote a few good songs,\nbut we aren't speaking of those. We are speaking\nof his orchestral works, which is another wav of\nsaying we aren't speaking of anything.)\nBut the most important thing 1 plan to bring\nup at the next P.-T.A. meeting is this: just what\nare we doing in the way of interpreting symphonies\nin terms of French painting? Almost nothing. And\nour children are jeering at us for it. They're scoffing, no less. This is what makes them wear zoot-\nsuits. ft makes them despair in other ways, too.\nThe Dept. of Social Worries is frightfully worried\nabout it. And there's no use in saying it is paid\nto worry. That's dodging the issue entirelv. It\nmakes our children jeer all over again. And when\nthey jeer too much the)- get monotonous, damn\nthem, because we have deprived them of a finer\nway of jeering. It's all our fault. It always is.\nNewest Colors\nSmartest Styles\nfor Fall and Winter\nUTLEY ARMSTRONG\nMILLINERY\n2808 Granville St. Vancouver, B.C.\nOCTOBER-NOVEMBER, 1952\nPage 23 FRANKLY SPEAKING\n(Continued from page 21)\nSession were visiting Professors Lionel Laing (B.A.\n'29) of Michigan, and Malcolm McGregor (B.A.\n'30) of the University of Cincinnati . . .

When he has some spare\ntime he dabbles in photography, but it is hobby of\npolitical science that has probably had the most\nbearing in placing him in the position he now\nholds.\nUntil tlrs year his political leanings were Conservative, and he championed Premier Bennett in\nhis effort to wrest the Conservative leadership in\nBritish Columbia from Herbert Anscomb.\nHe became a Social Creditor, and when Premier\nBennett begf.n to choose his cabinet he remembered\nthe personable young Vancouver lawyer who had\nproved his loyalty earlier.\nThe Premier took a chance on Bonner's vouth\nnot being a handicap, and he has never regretted\nthe choice.\nIt was typical of the man that he admitted at\nthe start that he knew little of the job, but was\nwilling to learn.

He likes to keep even\nroutine matters out of the public eye, and prefers\nhis staff to be not too talkative about the work of\nthe department.\nHe has won considerable solid acclaim since\nhis appointment but the highest compliment of all\ncame from an experienced observer at the Parliament Buildings:\n\"He appears to be a man who can act quickly\nwhen he has to, and who lives up to his promises.\"\nCEdar 1151\n'We Treat Your Clothes White'\nOCTOBER-NOVEMBER, 1952\nPage 25 STATISTICS\nBIRTHS\nRichard Bird, a daughter.\nHarold Tennant, a son.\nFred H.
