PENDER STREET - VANCOUVER 1. B.C., 685-3711 Walter Young\nALTHOUGH BY TRADITION it WOllld\nseem that faculty rank has always been with us, not in recent\ntimes have we examined its utility,\nits purposes and its consistency.\nIt is my opinion that rank serves\nno useful purpose in the university, that moreover, it is inconsistent with the goals of the university, engages an unjustifiable\namount of faculty time, and is\na constant source of rancour, suspicion and mistrust. And, at the\npresent time, it bears no relation\nwhatsoever to the salary scale.\nPresumably, rank indicates, in\na public way, the university's recognition of a faculty member's\nabilities and service as a scholar,\nteacher and university citizen. The\npresumption is that Professors are\nqualitatively better scholars, citizens and teachers than Associate\nProfessors who are, in their turn,\nbetter than Assistant Professors\nwho are better than Instructors.\nIn fact, of course, this is not so.\nPromotion is as much a function\nof length of service as anything\nsince, clearly, no one who is kept\non faculty and granted tenure is\npresumably deficient in the three\ncategories and most, if not all, who\nstay will, in the fullness of time,\nbecome Professors. Perhaps this\nwas not always so; it is the case\nnow.\nNot infrequently attempts are\nmade to establish sets of criteria\nfor promotion such that a given\nrank will presumably reflect some\nmeasurable difference from the\nrank below it. Despite the earnestness of these efforts, the result is\nmore labour, more invidiousness.\nThe criteria masquerade as quantifiable\u00E2\u0080\u0094as if this is justification:\nnumber of books, number of articles, number of pages, percentage of student support in teaching\nevaluation. Yet anyone who examines the results of the system\nacross the university will see that\nfairness has not been achieved and\npragmatic considerations \u00E2\u0080\u0094 market, compassion, favoritism\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nhave not been eliminated. The assertion of standards and steadfastness in their application is illusory.\nIf we were to grant that rank\ndid in fact indicate qualitative\ndifferences, it is manifest that the\nContinued p. 6\nDebate:\nShould faculty ranks\nbe abolished?\nThis question is debated\nin a new and, hopefully,\nregular feature of the\nChronicle.\nDr. Walter Young, BA'55,\nhead of political science,\nargues that academic\nranks serve no useful\nfunction and should be\nscrapped.\nDr. Cyril Belshaw, head of\nanthropology and sociology, argues for retention\nof ranks, stating that critical\nevaluation of faculty colleagues is a vital university function.\nCyril Belshaw\nTHERE IS A CERTAIN UTOPIAN appeal about Walter Young's proposal to eliminate professional\nranks which strikes a responsive\nchord in most of us although it is\nlinked with a highly cynical view\nof processes of academic judgment\nin this university. Yet academic\njudgment is surely what a university is about. If we are doing that\njob badly, in classroom and out,\nwe must do it better. The pretence\nthat academic judgment does not,\nor should not, exist, is one of two\nor three major threats to the integrity of the university community and to the quality of intellectual life in our society. It has many\nmanifestations, from avoidance of\nthe task of making critical judgments in the classroom, to avoidance of making judgments about\nthe quality of our academic work\n(both teaching and research) as it\nis addressed to students and colleagues. I see Dr. Young's proposal to abolish rank\u00E2\u0080\u0094by extending it\u00E2\u0080\u0094as part of this pattern.\nFirst, let me say that in many\nrespects we are dealing with a\nnon-issue. Nobody is really going\nto defend the particular details of\nthe form of rank, manifested\nthrough particular titles, that applies in UBC today. With the\npossible exception of the title of\nfull Professor, it doesn't really\nmatter who is called what.\nFurthermore, Dr. Young is not\narguing against the title \"Professor\". He merely says that everybody teaching at a university\nshould have it. As the experience\nof Europe should surely indicate,\nthis step alone does not eliminate\nrank. In the North American\nscene it would merely hide it. It\nwould be one more pretence that\na university, dedicated to quality,\ndoes not make quality distinctions.\nI find the proposal to be based on\na naive analysis of the university\nsocial system, and to lead to a\nsituation in which hypocrisy\nwould prevail. I would find it\nmuch more honest, and almost acceptable, if the proposal were to\ndo away with the title \"Professor\"\naltogether, and if it were to be\nadmitted that this action would\nnot affect the need to undertake\njudgmental distinctions about the\nContinued p. 6 Young/continued . . .\nrelative importance of various aspects of each of the three areas\nof service, and of the areas as between themselves, varies markedly from faculty to faculty, and\nwithin faculties, from department\nto department. What earns a professorship in one faculty would\nonly just merit an associate professorship in another, while in\nsome departments would be considered only a basis for tenure.\nYet the public accolade of promotion makes no such distinctions. A professor, it is assumed,\nis a professor, is a professor.\nIf in fact it was possible to\nassess service equitably across the\nuniversity there would still be no\nserious justification for rank. Presumably in the pursuit of knowledge all are colleagues, all are\nstudents. Scholarly investigation\ngains no validity from the rank of\nthe investigator. It must stand on\nits merits as scholarship.\nIt is equally clear that the notion that scholars, teachers, citizens need to be rewarded by promotion for their achievement is\nspecious. The \"publish or perish\"\ndogma has been soundly condemned by officials of this university often enough that further condemnation seems hardly necessary. But though this university\nofficially denounces the dogma, it\nnevertheless enshrines it in the\nsystem of rank for it is an established fact that without an \"adequate\" publication record, promotion is denied. Recent events have\nmade it clear that scholarly production is a necessary condition\nfor promotion and tenure. Rank,\nit has been argued, is good for\nproductivity. Yet this must be\nconfronted as a corrosive doctrine. One does research because\none is a scholar, one teaches because one believes in education,\none participates in the university\ncommunity because one accepts\nthe responsibility to do so. These\ndone from ambition are reprehensible and suspect.\nAt the present time the administration of the system of promotion consumes a wholly unwarranted amount of faculty time and\nenergy. The process begins in\nSeptember at the departmental\nlevel, there involving meetings,\nevaluation of colleagues, preparation of lengthy dossiers and the\nsoliciting of opinions from faculty\nat other universities. At this level\nthe procedure sows discord, acrimony and suspicion. Faculty\nmembers who are considered but\nnot recommended, naturally, view\ntheir senior colleagues with something less than warm respect.\nThose recommended but ranked\nlow, are equally distressed. The\ndepartment head, seldom a figure\nof universal affection, burdened\nwith the paperwork, is often subject to countless hours of argument and caustic analysis by the\nparties concerned. The same process continues when the matter is\nconsidered at higher levels, first\nby the dean of faculty and his\nadvisory committee and finally by\nthe president's senior appointments committee.\nThere was a time when rank\nand salary were linked. That is no\nlonger true. Today rank and salary are separate. Then, at least,\npromotion meant a substantial\npay increase. Today rank means\nno more than the successful transit\nof three levels of university bureaucracy, no mean feat admittedly,\nbut an exercise devoid of any intrinsic value and fundamentally at\nodds with academic goals. And if\nsalary floors are to be re-established it makes more sense to base\nthem on years of service and\nexperience than on rank.\nAt the present time there is no\nexplicit relationship between rank\nand tenure although it is customary to appoint full professors with\ntenure. The proposal in this paper\nis not directed toward the procedures concerning granting or\ndenying tenure. They are properly\na separate question.\nI strongly suggest that the present system of rank be abandoned\nat this university and that it be replaced by the occupational designation \"professor\" to be applied to\nall full-time academic employees.\nDr. Young's proposal has been presented\nto the UBC Faculty Association and will\nbe discussed at its March meeting. If the\nproposal is adopted by faculty, it will be\npresented to the Board of Governors for\npossible implementation as policy. \u00E2\u0096\u00A1\nBelshaw/continued . . .\nquality of our colleagues.\nThe real issues behind Dr.\nYoung's argument are much more\nserious. His line of reasoning reinforces false stereotypes of the\nprocesses which go on in the university, which I would have expected him to understand better.\nThese, I may add, are clearly far\nfrom perfect, but the attempt to\nimprove them is worthy of more\nattention than half-baked proposals to sweep the issues under\nthe carpet.\nFirst, let me clear up a minor\npoint. Dr. Young raises the point\nthat rank and salary do not go\ntogether. This is only partially\ntrue, and, incidentally, is not true\nat most other North American\nuniversities. Insofar as it is true,\nit is only because (a) at this point\nin time our salary floors are ridiculously low given the present market, and (b) we have no ceilings\nfor rank. But it still does happen\nthat promotion, particularly rapid\npromotion, carries with it a more\nthan normal salary raise.\nThe most revelatory point\nwhich Dr. Young advances is that\nrank is associated with a system\nof appraisal. It is curious indeed that academics get so worked\nup about promotion if the ranks\nreally don't mean anything. It is\ncurious also that in one statement\nDr. Young regards the outcome\nof the present method to be the\nawarding of rank for long service,\nyet in another he regards years of\nservice (and experience) to be the\nbest criterion for monetary reward. He is in fact saying, let us\nnot make judgments about the\nacademic contribution of our colleagues, let us be time-servers.\nI argue the reverse. If we are\ntoo timid and insecure to accept\nacademic criticism, particularly\nwhen we are protected by the privileged position of tenure, and to\nengage in debate about the quality\nof our ideas, we should not be in a\nuniversity.\nIf we refuse to take this responsibility and administer it ourselves, somebody else\u00E2\u0080\u0094you know\nwho\u00E2\u0080\u0094will do it for us. It is a\nreasonable and legitimate thing to\nask us to maintain intellectual\nstandards, by appraisal and dis-\n. . . continued p. 35 Two famous\nCanadian compacts.\nThe Apollo 11 lunar module.\nDesigned byOwen Maynard,\na Canadian.\nWhen it comes to technology some people seem to think that\nwe Canadians are a bit behind.

'Tie\nInteifiational\nCorporate\nOctopuS\nKeith\nBradbury\n%>\n^\\nL^H A few years back, there was a\n-*-*- revolution in a little Caribbean\nstate that sparked a delightful court\ncase in the United States. What triggered the court action was that the\nnew revolutionary government\nquickly set about seizing property of\nthe American Banana Company\nlocated in the country. So the aggrieved American Banana sued. Who\ndid it sue? The revolutionary government that had taken its property? Not\nlikely. None other than a rival U.S.\ncompany, the United Fruit Company.\nAs soon became clear, United Fruit\nhad not only financed and directed\nthe revolution but had gratefully accepted\u00E2\u0080\u0094for its trouble\u00E2\u0080\u0094the seized\nproperty of American Banana.\nNow, why American Banana ultimately lost the case is not of concern\nto us here. Rather, what is interesting\nis the manner in which United Fruit\nwent about getting the government of\nits choice. There appears to have\nbeen no question in the mind of\nUnited Fruit executives but that what\nwas good for United Fruit was good\nfor the country, if not for American\nBanana. What it came down to was\na personnel problem\u00E2\u0080\u0094finding the\nright people for the government jobs\n\u00E2\u0080\u0094which United Fruit solved. Perhaps American Banana's real complaint was that it didn't think of the\nidea first.\nWell, that's business. Here in Canada, of course, we've had nearly\n104 years of governmental stability\nand no corporation has yet felt the\nneed to have a revolution to get what\nit wants from us. And there is no reason to assume this will change in the\nimmediate future. Such blatant exer\ncise of power would probably be considered bad form today. And, anyway, Canada is considerably richer\nand more powerful than the little\nCarribean state that fell to United\nFruit. Yet, that doesn't mean we\nshould simply rest easy. The philosophy expressed by United is not\ndead. What is only just being realized\nis that large, modern, international\ncorporations are presenting new,\nmore subtle, more sophisticated challenges to the authority of nation\nstates.\nThe new problems have come with\ngrowth. In the years since the Second\nWorld War, some corporations have\ngrown to gigantic size. General Motors, the biggest in the world, is a\ngood example. In 1968, it had sales\nof $22 billion, which means that it\nproduced and sold more than dozens\nof so-called nation states and about\none-third of the Gross National Product of Canada. Of course, if the\noperations of General Motors were\nconfined to the United States, then\nthe problems would all be those of\nthe United States. But in fact such\ncorporations do not confine their\noperations to their own countries.\nThey buy, sell and produce in a variety of different countries. In other\nwords, they see the whole world as\ntheir oyster. And that's when problems start.\nConsider Canada. Historically\nhungry for development, Canada has\nwelcomed direct investment by outsiders. So much so that now some of\nour industries are almost wholly\nowned outside the country. Automobiles\u00E2\u0080\u009497 per cent foreign-controlled; rubber products\u00E2\u0080\u009497 per\ncent foreign-controlled; chemicals\u00E2\u0080\u0094\n78 per cent foreign-controlled; aircraft production\u00E2\u0080\u009478 per cent foreign-controlled and electrical products\u00E2\u0080\u009477 per cent.\nAnd that's to name just a few.\nTheoretically, these foreign-owned\ncorporations are under the control of\nCanadian law, just as Canadian-\nowned corporations are. But, even\nthe federal government has doubts as\nto whether they really are. The problem is that international (or multinational) corporations have the ability\nto avoid, if not evade, government\npolicy. They can shift their resources\nand alter their operations both geographically and through time. They\ncan shift purchases and production\namong their subsidiaries. They can\ndivert investments. They can transfer\nmanagement and manpower. In\nother words, if they aren't treated exactly the way they want to be, they\ncan go elsewhere. And that can hurt\nthe host country. The result, says\nRon Basford, BA'55, LLB'56, Canadian Minister of Consumer and\nCorporate Affairs, is that \u00E2\u0080\u0094\"because\ninternational corporations have alternatives, individual governments\nare in a negotiating rather than a controlling position.\" While me and thee\nare subject to the law, these privileged giant corporate concerns \"negotiate\" it.\nBut it goes much further than that.\nOne of Basford's greatest concerns is\nthat these corporations, because of\ntheir size and foreign nationality, can\nfrequently ignore Canadian policy\nentirely. For example, to the extent\nthat a multinational corporation can\ngenerate funds independently from\nsuch sources as its parent company\nor from retained earnings, it may be\nable to limit the effectiveness of a\ncountry's monetary policy. Or it may\nescape tax laws in the absence of\nadequate monitoring facilities. Or it\nmay frustrate laws against monopoly\nor restrictive trade practices by simply doing acts banned in Canada\nsomewhere outside the boundaries of\nCanada where Canadian law doesn't\napply. Thus, if two or three international firms carve up a world market\nbetween them and engage in price\nfixing, market allocation arrangements and other restrictive practices,\nthere is little or nothing the government of Canada\u00E2\u0080\u0094or any other\ncountry acting alone\u00E2\u0080\u0094can do about\nit.\n9 \"Canada\nis the\nworld's\nrichest\nunderdeveloped\ncountry\nBasford frequently points to two\nexamples relating to Canada. The\nfirst concerns drugs. The government\nof Canada a few years ago established \"beyond any doubt\" that the\nprice level of patented drugs was\nmuch higher in Canada than in many\nother countries. Says Basford: \"Because of the relatively high level of\nincomes in Canada and because international drug firms were able to\ntake advantage of barriers to trade\nbetween countries, they adopted the\ntraditional policy of the monopolist\nof charging what the traffic will\nbear.\" But even when Canada responded with legislation limiting the\npatent monopolies in Canada to allow for competitive manufacture and\nimport of drugs the problem was not\nsolved. There has since been evidence of action being taken by the\nlarge drug firms to cut off a source of\nsupply to small Canadian firms which\nhave licences to import approved\ndrugs. What the drug manufacturers\ncan't do in Canada, they are doing\nabroad\u00E2\u0080\u0094and they are frustrating\nCanadian policy.\nThe second example involves farm\nmachinery. A Royal Commission\ndocumented this case. Four companies, supplying 68 per cent of the\ntractors sold in Canada, were found\nto be building tractors in lower-cost,\nhigh-volume British plants and then\nselling them to Canadian farmers at\nartificially high U.S. prices. How?\nBecause they wouldn't allow direct\nimportation into Canada from British dealers or agents. In fact, the\ncommission found dealers to be intimidated \"by an undercurrent of\nfear of exposure to some overriding\npower of the manufacturers.\" \"In\n10\nboth the drug industry and the farm\nmachinery industry,\" concludes Basford, \"multinational corporations\nhave sought to impose private barriers to trade, in order to segment\nworld markets and to charge what the\ntraffic will bear in each segment of\nthe market.\"\nOf course, higher prices are an immediate and relatively easy-to-prove\ncost of multinational corporations.\nWhat is not clear so far are the long-\nterm costs to a nation such as Canada. Do any economic benefits outweigh the various costs? Do they hurt\na country politically? Can they destroy a culture?\nIn Canada, at least, there is some\nfeeling that the much talked about\nbenefits of such foreign investment\nare illusory. For example, McGill\nUniversity economist, Kari Levitt, in\nher book Silent Surrender, opposes\nthe widely-held view that outside direct investment actually develops a\ncountry. She accepts a definition of\ndevelopment which is based on\nchanges in economic life arising not\nfrom outside but from within, from a\ncountry's own initiative. By this\ndefinition, she contends, Canada is\nthe world's richest underdeveloped\ncountry.\nAnd University of B.C. economist,\nDr. Gideon Rosenbluth, who served\non the federal government Watkins\ntask force on foreign ownership, says\nthat, while he sees no general case\nthat Canada suffers economic losses\nbecause of foreign investment, \"I\nalso don't think, in spite of the many\nattempts that have been made to do\nit, that you could make a general case\nthat we've had any great gains from\nforeign investment.\" In fact, he suggests that since the Second World\nWar, the two countries where standard of living has risen most rapidly\nare Japan and West Germany\u00E2\u0080\u0094-both\nof which limited direct U.S. investment. \"I think,\" says Rosenbluth,\n\"that the proposition that the multinational corporation has been the\nvehicle of international improvement\nof standard of living would be very\nhard to demonstrate.\"\nSome of the problems with multinational corporations stem from the\nfact they frequently take a so-called\n\"global\" view of their operations. By\nthis is meant that when such corporations act, they act for the benefit of\nthe corporation as a whole and not\nfor the benefit of, say, the segment\nlocated in Canada. Clearly the scope\nfor conflict is great. Often, the wishes\nof Canada and the wishes of the international corporation will be in\nopposition.\nSuch difficulties are increased,\nhowever, by the fact that so-called\nmultinational corporations are frequently not really multinational in\nany true sense\u00E2\u0080\u0094but are simply international extensions of national corporations. Thus, top management,\nresearch and development and various support services may all be located in the home country of the\ninternational firm. Other countries\nmay be limited to having branch\nplants with imported management.\nOne result is to limit opportunities\nfor the development of managerial\nand entrepreneurial talent in the\ncountry where the branch plant is\nlocated. In Canada, it has been found\nthat there is a lack of Canadians\namong senior managers and directors\nof branch plants located in Canada.\nAnother result may be a certain economic instability for the branch plant\ncountry. In bad times, such corporations may close down branch plants\nbefore closing down those located in\nthe home country. And finally, the\ntendency of international corporations to wholly own their foreign subsidiaries may seriously limit investment opportunities of individuals in\nthe branch plant country. Sometimes,\nout of sheer lack of investment opportunity, they will wind up investing\nin the parent company. But in so\ndoing, they may be providing the\ncompany with the funds to buy up\nmore of the investor's own country.\nIn Europe, it has been estimated that\nonly 10 per cent of the American investment dollars spent there actually\noriginate in the United States. The\nrest are dollars loans, credits, subsidies and local (i.e., European)\nearnings of the American companies.\nAs J. J. Servan-Schreiber discovered\nin researching his book, The American Challenge, \"We pay them to buy\nus.\"\nPolitically, concern has been expressed that multinational corporations present dangers to the sovereignty of the countries where they\nlocate. Rosenbluth, for example, is\nconcerned about the question of\nextra-territorial application of laws\nof the home country of the corporation. By this is meant that the home\ncountry may seek to enforce its own\nlaws on those branches of the company located abroad. In Canada, there have been instances of this in which American\nlaws relating to trading with the\nenemy, anti-trust and monetary\npolicy have been applied to subsidiaries of American companies here\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nalthough both governments have\ntried to hush such matters up, says\nRosenbluth. \"Anytime anything has\ncome out as a kind of crisis, the\n'solution' has always been to make\nsome sort of accommodation. But the\npoint is that you're always at the\nmercy of voluntary restraints imposed on themselves by the American government to smooth the\ntroubled waters.\"\nAnother problem relates to the\npolitical power exercised here by\nbranch plants. Explains Rosenbluth:\n\"In any capitalist country, the people\nwho run large corporations have very\nsignificant political power, which\nthey exercise. If you have a particularly large proportion of your large\nfirms controlled all in one country\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nand that's the case here, then in fact\nall this political influence exercised\nas a matter of course by large business is external political influence.\nAnd there's a real loss of sovereignty\nthere.\"\nBut the most chilling warning\nabout the dangers of this kind of investment comes from Charles Burchill, head of the department of history and economics at Royal Roads,\nwho wrote recently about the danger\nof outside military intervention to\nprotect investments made by foreigners. \"The tendency for foreign investment to be followed by political and\nmilitary interference in the domestic\naffairs of the host country by the\ngovernment of the investing country\nhas behind it a long and dishonorable\nhistory,\" he said.\nOf course, many would argue that\nCanada would never find herself in\nvery serious conflict with the United\nStates because of a similarity of outlooks. But at least one student of\nmultinational corporations would\nsuggest that this is because of the\neffect these corporations have already had upon our culture. Don\nWells, a UBC economics student\nwriting a thesis on multinational corporations, suggests that the corporations have already closed off the socialist option for Canada because of\nthe vested interest the U.S. already\nhas here. But in addition, he suggests,\nthey have a homogenizing effect,\n\"homogenization of values through\ncreated demand, homogenization of\nvalues through the expansion of\norganization and the values the corporate organizations imply.\" In other\nwords, cultures are adapted to the\nmultinational corporation's demands\nand needs, not the other way around.\nThe solution? The recently-established Canada Development Corporation? Ownership restrictions?\nCooperation among governments to\ncontrol gigantic corporate organizations? Establishment of so-called\n\"world\" corporations under the auspices and regulation of the United\nNations? All have been suggested.\nWhatever the eventual choice, it\nmight be well to bear in mind the\nfollowing: In 1969, multinational\ncorporations accounted for 7.5 per\ncent of the free world's economy. But\na recent study by the Economic\nCouncil of Canada predicts that\nwithin 20 years, they may account\nfor 50 per cent.D\nVancouver freelance writer Keith\nBradbury, BA'66, LLB'69, is a\nformer Vancouver Sun reporter.\nHe was editor of The Ubyssey in\n1962-63.\nDollars delivered when most needed\nThe Canada Life Assurance Company\n11 A Day\nIn The Life Of\nA Medical Student\nAT 7 A.M. ON A GREY WINTER\nmorning Margaret Rose, fourth-\nyear UBC medical student enters the\nfront door of Willow Pavilion and\nturns along one of the drab, green-\nwalled corridors of Vancouver General Hospital. She stops at the coat\nhooks just outside the nurses' station\nand hangs up her coat.\n\"Good morning Dr. Rose,\" says a\nnurse as she goes by.\nAs a fourth-year student, Margaret isn't in fact a doctor yet, but,\nunder a new arrangement with the\nhospital, she's entitled to be called\n\"doctor\". This is because for the first\ntime this year fourth-year medical\nstudents are allowed to practise\nmedicine. Under an arrangement\nwith the B.C. College of Physicians\nand Surgeons, they are registered as\ntemporary physicians and, as a result, do the work of interns. There\nare two exceptions: they can't prescribe narcotics outside the hospital\nand they can't sign death certificates.\nTheir \"year\" comprises 14\nmonths. They spend six weeks at\nUBC's psychiatric unit, six weeks at a\nhospital of their choice anywhere in\nB.C. and the rest of the time on the\nwards of Vancouver General Hospital. If this new program is successful\nit could mean that UBC medical students studying to be specialists will in\nfuture spend only three years instead\nof the present four as residents.\nText/Joyce Bradbury\n12\nThe enthusiasm the students have\nfor this scheme is evident. Margaret\nsays she's happier this year than she's\never been.\n\"The first three years of medical\nschool were academic and tension-\nproducing,\" she recalls. \"We were all\nso compulsive about studying and\nthere was nothing practical to build\nour self-confidence. I was so desperate I used to go down to VGH emergency and tag along with the\ninterns.\"\nNow she spends most of her time\nat the hospital. She's on call\u00E2\u0080\u0094which\nmeans a 24-hour shift\u00E2\u0080\u0094every two to\nthree days. Obstetrics, Margaret\nsays, is the most hectic. One weekend\nshe was on the ward from 8 a.m.\nSaturday morning until 7 a.m. Sunday and after one-and-a-half hours\nsleep worked another eight-hour\nshift. That, she admits, doesn't happen all the time but after 11 months\non the job this year's fourth-year\nstudents are all feeling pretty tired.\nThis morning, as she talks, she\ntucks her brown hair beneath a white\nskullcap and dons a floor-length\ngown in preparation for morning\nrounds\u00E2\u0080\u0094a strict hospital ritual when\nall patients have their progress\nchecked and recorded. Rounds are\nmade three times a day\u00E2\u0080\u0094at 8 a.m.,\n2 p.m. and again at 7 p.m.\nMargaret joins a group of fellow\nstudents. Only Carl, who is in her\nPhotography/Andrew Sorila\nclass, acknowledges her presence.\nThe rest continue talking.\nThere are five doctors in the group\nincluding herself. They represent the\nstrict hospital hierarchy which dictates place and responsibility and, in\nthe system, Margaret and Carl are\nlow men (so to speak) on the totem\npole. They're officially called\n\"clerks\". One year ahead of them is\nJosie, the only intern in the group.\nThe most senior are Tim and Volker,\nboth first-year residents in pediatrics.\nIf the proposed system were in\noperation they would have only two\nmore years to complete before receiving their pediatrics degrees. In\nactuality they must finish three more\nyears of hospital practice.\nTogether the doctors enter the\nnursery. Their patients are babies in\nthe VGH intensive care unit. Today\nthere are nine babies here\u00E2\u0080\u0094all critically ill. Many won't survive their\nfirst week of life and many of those\nwho will have been so sick that they'll\nnever function as normal human\nbeings.\nThe babies lie in their isolettes or\nincubators in a long row along one\nwall, under the bright ward lights.\nEach is surrounded by the equipment\nMedical student Margaret Rose\nchecks pulse rate of baby in the\nVancouver General Hospital well\nbaby clinic. r\n13 necessary to sustain life\u00E2\u0080\u0094respirators, heart monitors, two or three\nintravenous systems. A nurse sits\nquietly beside each baby.\nThe first baby, a premature 2.2\npounds, was rushed to VGH the\nnight before from an upcountry\ntown. The two residents examine the\nchild, discuss treatment and in her\nnotebook Margaret records their instructions. After rounds, she will\ntranscribe these into each baby's\nmedical record\nThey move on to the next baby.\nOnly hours old, he has been brought\nto the unit with a suspected skull\nfracture sustained at birth. Outside\nthe unit the anxious father appears at\nthe observation window. One of the\nresidents smiles at him reassuringly\nand moves his son's head toward\nhim. Then he begins examination of\nthe baby, explaining his technique to\nthe others, who listen intently. Finally, to complete the examination,\nhe fits a measuring tape around the\nbaby's head and holds the measure\nup for Margaret to record.\n\"Forty-two inches?\" she asks incredulously. Everyone laughs and\nsheepishly the resident remeasures\nthe infant's head, this time with the\nproper side of the tape.\nThey move on to a jaundiced\nbaby whose eyes are covered by\nv/hite tape shutting out the intense\nrays from banks of ultra violet lights\nbeamed over her isolette. She is four-\ndays old and already has had four\nreplacement blood transfusions.\nThey decide that she must have another transfusion later in the day.\nMargaret is given the job.\nThe baby in the next isolette\nfollows the movements of the group\nwith wide brown eyes. He's the oldest\non the ward. He has spent the first\nsix months of his life here because\nhe has a nerve disease. A respirator\ntube is taped to his nose and behind\nhis isolette hang two intravenous\nbottles. One, called the lifeline, feeds\ndirectly into the jugular vein to his\nheart. The other disappears into a\nperipheral vein and contains a mixture of proteins, vitamins, plasma\nand sugar. Pumps which regulate the\nintravenous flow sit on top of his\nisolette. In a strangely sad gesture,\nhis nurse has taped a blue and white\ntoy fish to the side of the isolette\nwhere he can see it.\nBeside him is a tiny girl only days\nold who has already undergone two\nmajor stomach operations. Her\n14\nstomach is crisscrossed with ugly\nblack sutures and she is scheduled\nfor another operation that afternoon.\nThree intravenous bottles hang beside her isolette; the third is feeding\nher whole blood. A monitor records\nher heart beats. During her next operation she will die.\nDeath? Do the students ever learn\nto deal with it\u00E2\u0080\u0094is it important to\nthem?\n\"Yes, it's important,\" says Margaret. \"You have to make yourself\nget over it. You have to learn not to\nbecome emotionally involved and\nyou learn that if you let your emotions rule you're no use as a doctor\nto anyone. You rationalize that maybe with some patients it's better that\nthey die. Some of these babies have\nso many abnormalities and are so\nsick that they'll never live normal\nlives.\" Still, she says, she does become emotionally involved. \"The\nhardest job for me is telling parents\nabout their child's death.\"\nBy 8:20 the doctors finish rounds\nand head for a lecture called Pediatric Grand Rounds\u00E2\u0080\u0094another hospital ritual. All residents, doctors,\nnurses and clerks like Margaret who\nare working in pediatrics are expected to attend these lectures,\nscheduled once and sometimes twice\na day. The topics range from very\ntechnical medical subjects to sociological studies. When the lecture ends\nat 10, Margaret heads for\nthe cafeteria.\nAs everywhere else in the hospital, rank is pulled in the cafeteria.\nDoctors to the right; all other hospital personnel to the left. Margaret\nturns right and picks up a 20-cent\nsandwich and a glass of water. Like\nmost medical students she doesn't\nhave much money. Along with her\nclassmates she's paid $120 a month.\nTo supplement this she works part-\ntime in the hospital laboratory.\n(Before returning to university and\nentering medicine she spent two\nyears as a laboratory technician).\nThree of her friends stop briefly\nat her table on their way out to remind her of a party in the doctor's\nresidence.\nShe says that she's on call but\nshe'll look in if she has time.\nThoughtfully she watches them leave\nthe cafeteria.\n\"I used to depend on them a lot,\"\nshe recalls. \"I used to wonder what\nI would do when we all went our separate ways. But now it doesn't bother\nAbove, Margaret and fellow student\ndoctors enjoy a joke while examining x-rays . . . Below, it's study\ntime. Margaret grabs a couple of\nhours from her packed routine to\nstudy in the hospital library. me as much. I feel much better, much\nmore confident about practising medicine. It's strange how this feeling has\ngrown over the past months.\"\nMargaret feels she has changed in\nother ways too. \"I'm still idealistic but\nless so than before. I used to moralize and now I try to be non-judgemental. I've learned a lot about\nmyself.\"\nAt 11:30 Margaret returns to the\nintensive care unit and finds the\nothers waiting for her. The two residents are impatient. They stride\nahead to the elevators. On the fourth\nfloor ward they scrub with the inevitable Phisohex and put on caps\nand gowns. They enter the well-baby\nward.\nThey know these babies too because they've been assigned to check\ntheir daily progress. One of the residents asks, \"Want to see a beautiful\ncase of thrush?\" (a fungus infection)\nThey peer into the baby's mouth.\n\"It's improving,\" he says, satisfied\nand outlines the treatment he used.\nThe pediatrician who is supposed\nto accompany them is late so the\nresident assumes command and begins a lecture on the examination of\nthe newborn. The child he examines\nis a tiny black-haired healthy boy\nwho screams unhappily while he's\nbeing poked and probed. Finally the\npediatrician arrives and, with a few\nwell-placed questions designed to\nleave egg on the resident's face, assumes the lecture.\nAfter the lecture Margaret heads\nfor the library. It is now 12:30 p.m.\nHer schedule doesn't leave much\ntime for studying, so essential because examinations are given after\nevery six week rotation. What does\nshe do for relaxation?\n\"I listen to music,\" she says. \"I go\nto parties.\" But what she's really\nsaying is that this year is more than a\nfulltime job; it's a lifestyle. Probably\nthe only time she's completely away\nfrom medicine is when she's at home,\nan apartment shared with two\nfriends\u00E2\u0080\u0094a secretary and a school\nteacher.\nAt 2 p.m. it's back to the intensive\ncare unit for afternoon rounds. The\ntiny baby from upcountry has died\nearlier in the afternoon and the baby\nwith stomach sutures is being prepared for her last operation.\nAfter rounds Margaret is called\nto the second floor nursery to examine a newborn. Then she checks\nthe other 17 babies in her well-baby\n15 Off the ward and into the classroom\n. . . Top, left, Margaret enters VGH\nclassroom for pediatrics lecture, part\nof the daily routine. Below, she and\ntwo other student doctors consult\npatient's medical chart.\nward. At 3:30 she returns to the intensive care unit to administer the\nreplacement blood transfusion ordered in the morning. She is accompanied by a senior pediatrician.\nThe replacement machine is attached to a catheter which leads into\nthe baby's umbilical cord. On the\ncatheter is a stopcock which permits\nregulation of an input and discard\ntube; 250cc's of blood will be exchanged, or, three times the volume\nof blood in the baby's body. The procedure involves drawing out 10 cc's\nat a time and replacing it with 10 cc's\nof new blood. After every second exchange the baby will be examined\nthoroughly.\nThe exchange progresses smoothly. Suddenly Margaret who, on impulse, has stopped to listen to the\nbaby's heart rate reaches into the\nisolette and begins external heart\nmassage. Through the stethoscope\nshe's heard the baby's heart beat die.\nTwo good thumps on the chest start\nit again.\nDo sudden emergencies like that\nscare her? \"I have fears of panicking,\" she admits, \"but so far I've always been able to think of something\nto do.\"\nHer attitude to this emergency and\npractically every situation is a noticeable calmness, almost a casualness.\nIs this studied? \"Partly. I'm just a\ncalm type, but I've also learned that\nI'm not as efficient and I waste too\nmuch time if I let my emotions\nthrough.\"\nShe is now nine hours into her\nshift and it will be nine more hours\nbefore she goes to bed in an adjoining\nroom. Her shift officially ends in 15\nmore hours.\nAt 4:30 she attends a seminar in\nthe Children's Hospital.\nAfter the seminar her time is her\nown for an hour and she meets a\nfriend for a strictly social dinner.\nHer evening progresses through 7\np.m. rounds and into the night. The\nward is quiet. Carl, who has the night\n16 off and had left, appears again to\ncollect his shaving kit forgotten at\nthe hospital the night before. Then,\nat 9, a nurse calls Margaret to look\nat a badly bleeding circumcision. She\nscrubs and mutters to Carl who's already done his rotation on surgery,\n\"What do you do for a bleeding circumcision?\" Carl scrubs and gowns\nand comes in with her. Together they\ntry to locate the source of bleeding.\nThe nurse hovers anxiously. Finally\nthey decide to leave the wound uncovered. They feel the bleeding\nshould stop voluntarily and a few\nminutes later they're proved right. If\nthe bleeding hadn't stopped they\nwould have called Dr. Singh, the\nfourth-year pediatrics resident on\nnight call. Margaret is getting very\ntired now and talks about going to\nbed if nothing happens in the unit.\nBut a baby arrives from another\nhospital and Dr. Singh leaves Margaret instructions on administering\ntests. Without warning the baby begins to tremble with violent convulsions. \"O Lord, baby, don't do that,\"\nsays its nurse quietly. There isn't\nmuch time. Margaret is immediately\non the phone to Dr. Singh for permission to give the baby an anticonvulsant. She acts quickly. Finally\nthe trembling stops and the baby begins to sweat. Margaret checks its\nheart beat. In the isolette the baby\ncries now and its cry sounds lonely\nand distant through the isolette walls.\nThe nurses are changing shifts.\nOne complains loudly that her relief\nstill hasn't arrived and is always late\nanyway. Beside her the winking light\non the heart monitor ticks softly.\nAt 11 p.m. Dr. Singh and Margaret do a blood culture on the baby\nwho has convulsed. They have a hard\ntime finding a vein in the small hand.\nDr. Singh also decides to do a lumbar\npuncture (the gathering of spinal\nfluid) but Margaret has done lumbar\npunctures so she decides to sit this\none out.\nJust after 1 a.m. she starts to bed.\nShe is stopped by a nurse who says\nthat one of the intravenous tubes\nseems to be pumping the fluid into\ntissues instead of a vein. Margaret\nwaits while the nurse checks the baby\nagain. The nurse comes back and\ngrins, \"False alarm. You look\npooped. Go to bed.\" Margaret goes.\nAt 4 a.m. she will have to get up to do\na special test for an experiment she\nhas volunteered to assist. Until then\nshe can sleep, perhaps. . .

Alumni\nFund staff and volunteers discovered\nthat the university, during this time\nof need, has many friends, among\nalumni and others, eager to financially help UBC in its drive for academic excellence.\nThis finding is documented in the\nresults of the Alumni Fund '70 campaign.

It is an important\ncampaign because, first, the present\nfacilities\u00E2\u0080\u0094a dilapidated frame building and six tarpapered shacks\u00E2\u0080\u0094are\ntotally inadequate and, second, because UBC's geology department has\nso far trained about 20 per cent of all\ngeologists in Canada. And over the\nyears its graduates have contributed,\ndirectly or indirectly, to the discovery\nof $39 billion worth of mineral resources in Canada.\nTo date, 224 UBC alumni have\npledged $163,621 to the geology\nbuilding campaign. And 34 students\nhave pledged $6,995. Together with\ncommitments from mining, oil and\nassociated companies, faculty and\nothers, a total of $1.8 million has\nbeen pledged. The progress of the\ncampaign up to now has enabled construction to begin on the first phase of\nthe new Geological Sciences Centre.\nFast Effective Help\nOne area of Alumni Fund operation which has proved to be a popular\nand effective method of aiding university projects is the \"contingency\"\nfund. This is a scheme designed to\ngive prompt financial assistance to\nworthy student and faculty projects.\nSince its inception, the contingency\nfund has given out $14,896 in help,\nranging in amounts from $50 to\n$1,500. It has assisted such projects,\namong others, as an Arts Undergraduate Society student orientation\nprogram, student transportation to a\nnursing conference, an information\ncentre for troubled students called\n\"Speak Easy\", and the B.C. Union of\nStudents employment placement\nservice.\n24 Another highlight 01 the annual\ncampaign was the fact that the President's Fund continued to be oversubscribed. In 1970, graduates donated $12,292 specifically to this\nfund, a clear indication of their support for President Walter Gage. The\nPresident's Alumni Fund was established to enable the president to support, at his discretion, a wide variety\nof special university projects.\nTwo specialized appeals carried\nout under the auspices of the Alumni\nFund also met with a favorable response from alumni. The campaign\nto endow the Frank Noakes Memorial Fund received $4,200 in gifts\nfrom engineering alumni and students. This memorial fund is being\nestablished in memory of a former\nelectrical engineering head, the late\nDr. Frank Noakes, and is to provide\nbursaries to qualified, needy electrical engineering students.\nAn appeal was also conducted for\nthe UBC class of 1925. It received\n$1,500 in gifts from alumni. The\nmoney is to be used to buy equipment for the Crane Library for blind\nstudents and original art for the Student Union Building art collection.\nThat was the fund record for\n1970. Now the Alumni Fund has\nswung into its campaign for 1971.\nKen Brawner, Alumni Fund campaign chairman for 1971, points out\nthat there is new significance to\nalumni annual giving. \"The university's need for free funds to provide\nthat extra margin for academic excellence is as great as ever,\" he said.\n\"But in addition, now that student\nenrolment at UBC is levelling off,\ngifts from alumni will have the effect\nof going further toward providing the\n'extras' any great university needs.\nWe hope alumni will continue to give\nstrong support to the Alumni Fund in\n1971.\" \u00E2\u0096\u00A1\nBusy on the phone lines talking to\nprospective donors are UBC grads\nparticipating in the annual Alumni\nFund phonathon.

A greying goatee and wide\nsmile finished the picture, and I was\nushered in by a deep and deliberate,\nbut friendly voice.\nIf I hadn't been prepared, I would\nhave been struck by awed silence at\nthe sight of the living room. Huge,\nmodern paintings fought with miles\nof bookshelves for wall-space. Eskimo and Indian sculpture flowed from\nthe coffee tables into the hallway.\nAnd certainly, it was the first time I\nhave ever seen two grand pianos in\none living room. It is the kind of\nhouse one might expect a wildly extravagant 24-year-old couple to live\nin, not two elderly professors of\nmusic.\nWhat even amazed me more was\nto learn that almost all of the furniture in their present house once fit in\nthe Acadia Camp army hut they called home for 18 years.\nIt was in 1945 that Norman Mackenzie, then president of UBC, asked\nAdaskin to become head of the not-\nyet formed music department. By\nthis time he was already a well-\nknown musician, both as second\nviolinist with the Hart House String\nQuartet and in his own right as a\nsoloist. Since then he has taught several thousand students the art of listening in his music appreciation classes, and given many others lessons on\nthe violin.\nBut without exception his students\nclaim music is only part of what he\nteaches. \"I learned more about English literature in his class than I ever\ndid from anyone in the English department,\" says Harry Locke, BA-\n'52, one of Adaskin's earliest students.\n\"One of my French essays was\nstimulated by his stories and poetry\nreading in class,\" says a present-day\nstudent. \"Of course we learn a lot\nabout music, but he is always introducing his philosophy of the arts into\nhis lectures.\"\nThe same was true of the interview. I had heard that the Adaskins\nhave neither a phonograph nor\nrecord collection in their house, and\nasked him the reason why.\n\"I know what's on the record when\nI hear it once,\" he said. \"Now why\nwould I want to hear it a second\ntime? Will there be a change of\nsound; will he do something he missed the first time? No, it will be\nexactly the same, won't it. To listen\nonce I don't have to have a machine\nand buy records.\"\nThis kind of comment is typical of\nAdaskin. He's a man who has definite\nbeliefs and opinions, and his wife\nFrances says, \"has known exactly\nwhat he wanted to do all his life, and\nhas somehow always managed to do\nit.\"\nTake for example his 12-year\ncareer as an administrator of the\nmusic department at UBC. One of\nhis first jobs was to find faculty members, and not even a lack of funds\nwould deter him. At one time he had\nthe opportunity of bringing composer Barbara Pentland to UBC, but\nthe university was short of money.\n\"I must have asked at an awkward\ntime, because the university didn't\ntake kindly to importing someone\nfrom Toronto to join the staff. I\ncouldn't get the money from them, so\n1 thought, well, I want her, and was\nrather afraid someone else might get\nher. I went to a local patron of the\narts and asked if he would be interested in paying a regular salary.\nHe agreed and I managed to bring\nher in the end, even without the\nfinancial aid of the university.\"\nAnother example is the way he\nlearned to speak French.\n\"I remember when I was young I\nwas irked by the fact that I couldn't\nread French. One day I got a job\nplaying with a small orchestra between the acts of a stock company.\nWe couldn't make a noise while the\nplay was on, so I bought a grammar\nbook. I started at page one and went\nAlex Volkoff\n27 28 right through to the end, concentrating on it every day for two hours,\nseven days a week. At the end of two\nyears I was able to think in French.\nLater I did the same with German,\nalthough I never developed the same\nfluency.\"\nBut those aren't the only subjects\nhe learned on his own. Adaskin is the\nepitome of a scholar and a gentleman, but he has had formal education only in the elementary grades.\n\"I was so enamoured of the violin\nthat anything that took away from\nthat for me was strictly taboo. But I\nhave been an almost pathological\nreader all my life. You can't keep\nthat up for 60 years and not learn\nsomething.\"\nTalking to Adaskin is often like\nreading a Who's Who of 20th century artists in all fields. For those like\nmyself who are well on the good side\nof 30, people such as Ravel and Bar-\nrere, Emily Carr and Lawren Harris\nare names in a book. We study them\nas contemporaries, but don't really\nthink of them as such. Adaskin, on\nthe other hand, has dealt with them\nin person.\nWhen during the summers of the\nearly thirties he and his pianist wife\nwent to France to study music, they\nlived in the Paris of F. Scott Fitzgerald and Hemingway.\n\"Oh, it was a marvelous period!\nDebussy had been dead just 11 years\nwhen I came there; Ravel was still\nalive. The Hart House Quartet went\non tour with Ravel in 1928. We\nplayed at his debut in New York and\nthen toured with him in the United\nStates.\n\"I knew Emily Carr very well in\nthe twenties and the thirties. When\nthe Quartet made its annual visit to\nthe west coast I would visit her in\nVictoria and she would show me her\nyear's work. The first time when I\ncame in she asked me to sit down but\nthere wasn't a chair in the room. It\nwas a studio, and so I thought I\nshould sit on the floor. Then out of\nthe corner of my eye I saw something\ncoming down from the ceiling. When\nI looked she was lowering a great big\nwicker chair on a pulley. She liked an\nuncluttered room and had all her\nchairs up there.\n\"And so I visited her for many\nyears and she would show me her\nnew work. That's how she came to\ngive me one of her paintings. She\ncouldn't get $25 for them at the time,\nbut a few years ago I sold it for\n$10,000.\"\nThis is typical of Harry Adaskin\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nhe's not about to jump on the bandwagon, because he is usually way in\nfront of it.\n\"Of course, I was always interested in painting; that's why Lawren\nHarris was one of my oldest friends\nhere. There was a long period in our\nlives when he and I would go to lunch\nevery Tuesday. For years and years\nwe used to go to an Italian restaurant\nand stuff ourselves with spaghetti and\ntalk for hours. He was very interested\nin theosophy, of which I knew nothing. It opened up a whole world for\nme and led me into Zen, which is my\npresent interest.\"\nAs one of his old students says:\n\"I've known the Adaskins for 20\nyears and they haven't really changed\ntheir basic life style. But their minds\nare still so vitally young. They epitomize the beautiful life in the true\nsense of the phrase.\"\nThe one major change came just\nover a year ago when Adaskin suddenly stopped playing the violin.\n\"I gave my last recital at 60 and\nthen struggled for nine years with\nwhat they call tennis elbow in my\nbowing arm. It is a muscle that stiffens up when I least expect it. I tried\nto overcome it, but then one morning\nwhen I was getting ready to do my\npractising, I suddenly had an intimation that I musn't play any more. You\nknow, one must obey these impulses,\nso I immediately sold my violin. But\nit was hard to do it. It was a year ago,\nand I still get moments of regret.\"\nAdaskin would disagree, but many\nof his friends are convinced that he\nhas educated people in Vancouver to\nlisten to contemporary music. Barbara Pentland remembers when in\n1941 Adaskin brought about the first\nperformance of her quartet for piano\nand strings in Toronto.\n\"That was the beginning of many\nperformances of my music and other\nCanadian works for which he was\nresponsible. Even after they moved\nto Vancouver he continued to perform, and bring about performances\nof new music. It was particularly important in those days because new\nmusic was less easy to hear than now.\nBut even today few other Canadians\nshow comparable interest in contemporary music.\" \u00E2\u0096\u00A1\nMiss Alex Volkoff is a fourth-year\narts student majoring in English.\nA part-time Vancouver Sun\nreporter, she plans doing advanced\nstudy in communications.\n29 Birney Steps\nInto The\nDada Borderblur\nRag And Bone Shop\nby Earle Birney\nMcClelland and Stewart\nToronto, $2.95\nGEORGE BOWERING\nTn the early fifties some ot\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2*- the critics took for granted that\nthey could refer to Earle Birney's\ncareer in the past tense because he\nhad not publisht any poems since the\ncollection of his poems in 1948. Then\nin 1958 a big new collection came\nout, & Birney's career has been larger\n& certainly more notable during the\nSixties than at any time earlier.\nNow, to begin the Seventies,\ncomes this book, & the critics will\nhave to get up off their swivel chairs\nagain. They used to think of him as\nan intelligent western Chaucer of the\ncentury that Laurier said would be\nCanada's, as a \"chronicler of Canadian life\" during & after the War.\nNow he is a bothersome gadfly alighting on the territory of bp Nichol &\nBill Bissett.\nThe new book is printed in black\n& white & red, & we may be assured\nthat the colors are restricted by the\npublisher to keep the price down.\nThere are found poems, concrete\npoems, tone poems, & stuff that isnt\nasking to be called poems at all.\nSome people will think it odd, some\nwill feel betrayed, that pensioner\nBirney has decided to step into the\ndada borderblur.\nThe title is from Yeats, who used\nthe image to speak of the resources\nfor more poems in his old age. Here\nBirney rifles his past, rewrites old\nuncollected poems, scatters words &\ndrawings all over the pages. He's the\nshopkeeper & the shop is one of those\nwooden-floor jumble stores you find\nin the mountains. You have to look\nthru the piles of merchandise to find\nwhat you want or what you never\nknew existed. Chances are the\ncheese-graters will be next to the\nwading boots.\nMany of the concrete things are\nthe simplest kind, the words strung\naround the surface copying shapes of\ntheir referents or motions, making\nthe eye & mind wander out from behind the habits of silent reading.\nThese, and the found objects, are on\na line of development in Birney's\npoetry from the allusion & rhetoric\nof the Thirties, thru the linguistic\ndance thirty years later. Metaphor is\nno longer manufactured. It is let\nloose with pun & picture, rime, what\nwe learn from nature, not try to teach\nit.\nOn poetry \"readings\" now, Birney\ncarries slides, which he has to show\nfrom the seat in the middle of the\naudience, rather than standing up in\nfront of them & intoning. That\nchange in stance is not just the result\nbut also the purpose of the change in\nthe poems. For when you perceive\nthe poet trying out all these things,\ntaking titles like any teenager off a\njukebox & making a sentence from\nthem, for example, it is to keep the\nhuman being going & visible, not just\nthe poet, to see the hand & the mind\nsearching for forms, for a connection,\nnot just laying it out for us from\nOlympus or Galiano Island.\nIn a nice long poem about his auto\ntrip eastward across the country, Birney thinks of the geology of the place,\nthe pre-historical life, & counterpoints these trips with a sell-out\ngovernment brochure for the Americans (the reason some of these newcomers disapproved of the book in\nthe Vancouver reviews). Birney\nshows his stance toward the country\nhe was born in & loves, \"which I inheriting do not possess.\"\nBut the concrete & the found are\nonly part of the book. There is a\nwide-ranging selection of pieces\nfinisht over the past decade, musings\non Canadian history, Atlantic coast\ncommunities (\"them able leave her\never\"), tributes to Chaucer & Cree-\nley, & the long poems about his travels around the world.\nThe last has always been a rich\nsource for his most Canadian poems.\nThey often use a favorite device of\nrecounting a personal meeting with\none man of the place, or another of\nfinding the poet feted by the local\nprofessors or writing ladies. As he\nearlier treated the Caribbean & Latin\nAmerica, now he treats the South\nPacific. In the travel poems the language is always vigorous, thick with\nextra-strong verbs & dense with\nrime:\n30 poet-tree 1\npoet-tree 2\ni fear that i shall never make\na poem slippier than a snake\nor oozing with as fine a juice\nas runs in girls or even spruce\nno i wont make not now nor later\npnomes as luverlee as pertaters\ntrees is made by fauns or satyrs\nbut only taters make pertaters\n& trees is grown by sun from sod\n& so are the sods who need a god\nbut poettrees lack any clue\nthey just need me & maybe you\nReprinted from Earle Birney's\nRag & Bone Shop, McClelland & Stewart\nKnotheaded men in seaboots all the\nway from Hokkaido\ncrowded on a moored fishtank built\nlike a tug\nThey've been catching tuna\nfor rice & sharks\nfor the fun & fins drying on\nthe rigging now\nThere's talk that Birney's next\nbook will be a collection of his travel\npieces. I, for one, will look forward to\nit. The Europeanized American critics in our universities will dislike it,\n& some of our older reviewers will\nwonder when the fellow will settle\ndown.

But inside are\n54 poets whose connection with B.C.\nseem, in many cases, to be the briefest coincidence.\nFifty-four? It seems as if the editors, desperate to produce the biggest\nanthology possible, had snatched up\nanyone who ever uttered a poetic\nsound\u00E2\u0080\u0094whether in a university\nclassroom or in the privacy of a Vancouver Island beach hut\u00E2\u0080\u0094and slapped him between the covers of Contemporary Poetry of British Columbia.\nPatience. This book is a slow-\ngrowing delight. It divests you, almost without your being aware of it,\nof the usual tight attitudes about\nanthologies:\nWhat are all these unknowns\ndoing here? Where is the particular\nB.C. flavour? Why these translations\n31 Hitchhikers\nWhite men ask me how I\nam so old.\nI tell them because I don't\ndrink\nThe white man's canned\nmilk.\nWe speak English because in my\nLanguage mok'sin means\nshoe\nAnd for my wife mok'sin\nmeans nose.\nLook Mamma.\nthe valley here was all\nfor canoeing\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nRemember?\n\u00E2\u0080\u0094John Corsiglia\nReprinted from Contemporary Poetry\nof British Columbia, Sono Nis Press\nfrom Polish? When the wisdom of the\neditors surfaces, it has more to do\nwith freedom from choice than with\nrigid forms of classification.\nWho is a B.C. poet? Earle Birney\nobviously is, and yet he has only one\npoem in the book (Not surprisingly,\nit is \"Canada: Case History 1969\").\nIs it precisely because he is the most\nwell-known of B.C. poets that he gets\nsuch thin representation, while several people who have never published\nanything previously, have three or\nfour poems here?\nWhy not? Those whose place is so\nsecurely established have no need of\nmatter-of-course homage. At the\nother end, should a poet as gifted as\nany of the familiar ones be excluded\nsimply because his name has never\nappeared in The Malahat Review?\nThe sinister magic of Sean Virgo and\nthe withering Indian wryness of John\nCorsiglia have especially convincing\nclaims in a B.C. anthology.\nOut of habit we look for the B.C.-\nness of the selections. Compulsively\nre-treading the academic mumblings\nabout mythology and western trends,\nredolent of pine trees and open\nspaces and that sort of thing, we look\nin vain. Sure, many of the pieces do\nhave the sort of atmosphere we could\nproperly label \"western\"\u00E2\u0080\u0094notably\nthose of Newlove, Ken Belford, and\nCharles Lillard.\nBut it soon becomes obvious that\nthis had absolutely nothing to do with\ntheir inclusion in the book. In fact,\neditor Michael Yates regards this\nstandard as nonsense, and makes it\nclear in the foreword: \"British Columbian poetry is not unlike the\npoetry of other regions in Canada,\nnor unique in the rest of the world.\nWhat is truly significant in these\npages would be significant in any\nother place, translated into any other\nlanguage.\"\nYates and co-editors Andreas\nSchroeder and George McWhirter\nare all healthily represented in the\nbook. Of course, you reply, what else\ncould be expected? But your suspicions turn out to be unfounded. Their\neditor-ship aside, these three poets\ncontribute some of the best works in\nthe book.\nI particularly like McWhirter's\nCatalan poems, with their vital portrait-strokes. The images stir sparks\nof surprise and joy in the mind that\nhas been anaesthetized by the sluggish self-pity of many other selections.\nThere is some exciting stuff between these covers. Some of it is\nunexpected; most of it only confirms\nthat we have some particularly good\npoets in this province. Stanley\nCooperman is one; Dorothy Livesay\nand Lionel Kearns are up there too.\nBut Susan Musgrave towers by herself in a clear, defiant cry, her pain\nand fire untrammeled by non-essentials, larger than pettiness, more real\nthan our voices.\nIt is difficult to judge a poet from\none selection, and several cases here\nsuggest that if a name is not followed\nby at least two or three works, it\nmight just as well be left out. But\nFrederick Candelaria's strangely\nclaustrophobic \"Hotel\" says enough\nabout his power, to be an exception.\nSimilarly David Bentley stands\nstrongly on his own through a single\npoem called \"Genesis\". It is the wildly unabashed hyperbole of loving\nthat makes the poem rare, especially\nwhen followed by the total disillusionment of Michael Finlay's \"In\nCaptivity.\"\nNo anthology can please throughout. There are poems here I consider\nsuperficial, repetitious, or too intel-\nlectualized to stand on their own.\nThere are selections that make me\nwonder if far-fetched images and\nexclusive ego-groans are enough to\nmake a poem.\nThere are several indifferent prose\npassages whose inclusion in this book\n1 do not understand. Nor do I understand how Polish poetry, even when\ntranslated by B.C. Poles, can qualify\nas contemporary poetry of British\nColumbia. The language of B.C. has\nnever been anything but English\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nand Indian dialects\u00E2\u0080\u0094and translation\nis not the same as making poetry.\nBut the editors chose the widest\nscope possible, and in the last analysis, it is better to swing too wide than\nto knock off your own toe-nails. If\nthere is a newness and freedom that\nmight mean B.C., it lies in the way\nthis book has been put together.\n\"Refreshing\" is a patronizing\nword that I have never liked. I never\nthought a poetry anthology would\ndefy me to find another. But in that\nword I wrap up Contemporary\nPoetry of British Columbia and offer\nit to you.D\nMiss Viveca Ohm, a Vancouver freelance writer, graduated from UBC in\n1969 with a BA in English.

Belshaw/continued from p. 6\ncussion, in a public institution\ndevoted to that end.\nThe committees and man-hours\npainfully devoted to evaluation in\nconnection with rank and tenure\nrecommendations have a significance which goes far beyond judgments about particular individuals.\nThis is an instrument for soul-\nsearching and analysis. It leads to\nexchange of views about criteria,\nindeed, even argument between\ncolleagues in a department, and\nbetween department representatives and members of other departments involved in the process\nof evaluation. The instrument is\nblunt, the communication pretty\nrough at times, and the arguments\noften ambiguous. But it forces us\n\u00E2\u0080\u0094yes, even Department Heads,\nDr. Young\u00E2\u0080\u0094to be more specific\nin our thinking; it has made some\ndepartments face up to the development and communication of\ncriteria for department standards,\nand as time goes on it creates the\npossibility for the discussion of\nobjectives. (Incidentally, never\nyet, in any of the committees with\nwhich I have served, have the\ncriteria been quantified, as Dr.\nYoung alleges.)\nLet it be quite clear. This is a\nnecessary process. No university\nof stature has found a substitute,\nthough the process varies in form\nfrom place to place. Do away with\nrank in our present form, and you\nwill simply substitute something\nelse.\nPersonally, I would prefer to be\nmore, rather than less restrictive,\nabout the title of full Professor.\nI think that in the English-speaking world, the title should be in\nthe form of an academic honour,\nto indicate the recognition of\nachieved accomplishment of major\nproportions, communicated to the\ninternational world of scholars of\nwhich we are a part.

Edwards, BA'31,\nVancouver.\nStunning Incomprehension\nTrevor Lautens' enthusiastic review of\nStephen Leacock by David M. Legate\n(Chronicle, winter '70) contains one very\nquestionable piece of criticism which\nought not to pass unchallenged.\nHe says: \"On the debit side, while\nLegate offers a good choice of representative funny bits from the Leacock canon,\nparadoxically he knows little about humour.\" (Where do you think the \"good\nchoice\" comes from, Mr. Lautens? Presumably we are to put it down to happy\nchance that an author who knows little\nabout humour just happens to make a\ngood selection of representative funny\nbits. But Mr. Lautens is about to prove his\ncase. Read on.) \"Typically, he quotes Leacock's well-known remark about his doctorate in philosophy: 'The meaning of this\nlast degree is that the recipient of instruction is examined for the last time in his life\nand is pronounced completely full. After\nthis, no new ideas can be imparted to him'.\nWith stunning incomprehension Legate attributes this superb witticism to 'false\nmodesty'. There are many such curious\njudgements.\"\nIt's a pity that Mr. Lautens does not\ngive us any further examples of these\n\"curious judgements\". For in this case the\ncurious judgement comes not from Mr.\nLegate but from Mr. Lautens. For, just\none paragraph before he quotes Leacock's\nwitticism about his doctorate, David Legate writes . . . \"Leacock treasured his PhD\nfor ever after. It represented the fruit of\nmuch hard work and financial strain on his\npart and he didn't propose to let people\nforget it. As a pose he spoofed the accomplishment. . .\"\nThe second instance of this \"spoofing\"\nwhich Legate gives us is Leacock's famous\nquote. So there we have Leacock poking\nfun at an achievement of which he is in\nfact extremely proud. I call that \"false\nmodesty\". So, I think, would every intelligent reader who is not, like Mr. Lautens,\nguilty of \"stunning incomprehension.\"\nDouglas M. Gibson,\nEditor, Doubleday Canada Ltd.,\nToronto.\nLautens To The Defence\nDear Mr. Gibson:\n\"False modesty\", whatever else it is, is\nnot in itself a humorous pose, or, if you\nlike, part of a humorist's persona. If your\nexegis is correct, Legate's difficulty is that\nhe awkwardly expresses his understanding of Leacock's humour, as opposed to\nhaving the good sense to enjoy it, just as I\nhave the good taste to enjoy Iris Murdoch\nand Isaac Bashevis Singer and the Sonnets\nwithout necessarily having the faculty of\nadequately explaining why I do so. In fairness, the mother lode of humour may be\ninherently elusive; as Legate notes, Leacock himself (like other humorists)\ncouldn't adequately explain where it lies. I\nhaven't got my copy of his book before\nme, but I marked many other passages in\nwhich his appreciation of Leacock's humour was either off-target or (to accept\nthe implications of your point) unclearly\nexpressed. Since Legate couldn't perceive\nthe wild funniness of soberly approving in\nhis text a judgement in an article he quoted\nwhich, as the footnotes reveal, was written\nby himself, I assumed the former.\nTrevor Lautens,\nVancouver.\nMale Chauvinist Cover?\nWomen's Liberation Front groups have\nhad heavy weather to reach me, bogged\ndown in middle age.

Scott\nCOMMUNICATION. COMMUNITY. ECUMENISM. These are the three key words in the\nlexicon of the Rt. Rev. Edward Walter\nScott, the new primate of the Anglican\nChurch of Canada.\nTed Scott, as he prefers to be called,\nsees his new role as involving responsibility in these three areas. \"One of my main\nresponsibilities,\" he told the Chronicle,\n\"will be to develop a much greater sense\nof community within the Anglican\nChurch as whole and a much more open\ncontext of the Anglican Church in relationship to other groups in society. A\nsecond responsibility will involve speaking\nin the name of the church to government,\nto the media and to society generally\u00E2\u0080\u0094to\nfocus on issues we think need to be raised\nin society. The third responsibility will be\nto serve as contact person in the Anglican\nChurch for ecumenical activities in terms\nof other communions and also with other\nprovinces of the Anglican communion\nelsewhere in the world.\"\nOverwhelming support from youth delegates to the recent general synod of the\nAnglican Church in Niagara Falls enabled\nthe 51-year-old former Bishop of Kootenay to be elected primate over Archbishop William Wright of Algoma by 72\nto 61 votes. Ted Scott puts his election\ndown to a new forward-looking mood in\nthe church. \"I think I have been known as\na person who believes we should be making changes in making the church more\neffective. God's basic concern is with the\nworld, not an institution.\"\nA native of Edmonton, Bishop Scott\n.obtained his BA from UBC in 1940 and\nhis Licentiate in Theology from Anglican\nTheological College in 1942. Since then,\nhe has served as a parish priest in Prince\nRupert, Fort Garry, and Winnipeg, and as\nsecretary of the Student Christian Movement at the University of Manitoba. In\n1960 he became diocesan director of social service for Rupert's Land, a post he\nheld until 1964 when he became associate\ngeneral secretary of the church's council\nfor social service. In 1966 he became\nBishop of Kootenay. His new post will require that he move from sunny Kelowna\nto Toronto.\nThe Anglican Church's style in future\nmay well come to reflect that of Bishop\nScott. A very pleasant, congenial, open\nsort of person, he is very eager to ensure\nthe church meets the real needs of people\ntoday\u00E2\u0080\u0094but not at the expense of the\nchurch's eternal truths. Caught up in a\nperiod of rapid change, the church in the\nrecent past, he feels, exhibited signs of\nconfusion as to what was its true role. He\nbelieves the church needs to focus more on\nhelping people find meaning in their lives.\nA hopeful sign, to Bishop Scott, is that\nthe drift away from the church seems to\nhave levelled off. Youth particularly are\nshowing new interest in religion (in its\nbroadest sense) in their experimentation\nwith eastern religions and sensitivity training . \"I'm not sure they will come back\nto the Christian church in its institutional\nform,\" said Bishop Scott. \"But I have a\npersonal conviction that the deeper they\nlook for truth the more they will come to\naffirm the kind of things that Jesus Christ\naffirmed, whether they look for it in eastern religions or elsewhere. I think they\nwill come back to a deeper sense of community in which Christian insights will\nplay a real part.\" ,\n20's\nOne of Oregon's most active conservationists, Dr. David B.
