M.S.\nHas Led Varied\nCareer at U.B.C.\nEarl Vance, this year's president of\nthe Alma Mater Society, has had a\nvery varied and useful University\ncareer. As a freshman he was prominent at Pep-meetings and Varsity\ngames. After he had recovered from\nbeing a freshman he declared that\nhis abilities were not being utilized\nto the fullest extent so he tried out\nfor inter-collegiate debating. He won\nhis gold pin in 1930 after participating\nin three debates in 1928-29-30. Not\ncontent with winning fame in the\noratorical field he invaded the managerial field, occupying the presidents\nchair to the Canadian Rugby Club\nduring the sessions 1929-30-31. He\nwas also president of the now-extinct\nMamooks Club to / ias sophomore\nyear, -^fa- i\nHe crowns his varied University\ncareer with the highest honour a student can ^tain\u00E2\u0080\u0094the presidency of\nthe Alma Mater Society.

OFFICE CALLS\nFROSH SCRIVENERS\nTO UBYSSEY STAFF\nAgain with the advent of the annual sfudent reflux, the \"Ubyssey\"\ninvites all students who are interested to any branch of journalism to\nmeet in tiie Publications Board offices, Auditorium 206, Wednesday\nnoon. Any who are unable to attend\nthis meeting should get in touch with\nthe news manager, St. John Madeley,\nas soon as possible.\nNo previous experience in journalism is necessary, and all who attend\nthis meeting wO^ be instructed to the\nfundamentals of reportorial work\nand given assignments. Would-be reporters will be given at least three\nopportunities .to prove their worth\nbefore being turned down.\nThere is ample opportunity to fee\nUbyssey for new reporters, and for\nmay who are interested to the business, or feature side of journalism,\naa the publications of the Board are\na bi-weekly newspaper, an annual\ncalled the \"Totem\" and a student\nHandbook. Those students who wish\nto join the Literary and Feature\nstaffs will be given opportunities to\ndemonstrate their aptitude for this\nwprk, and will have a chance of promotion to one or other of these editorial positions.\nAll students who worked for the\n\"Ubyssey\" last year are also asked\nto attend this meeting as some promotions have not as yet been decided upon and work for the year\nmust be got under way. Promotions\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2wiBl be made from time to time from\nthe ranks of euh-reporters as they\nprove their mettle.\nStudent initiative has won another\nvictory! With the completion of the\nnew stadium playing field behind the\nScience Building a fitting companion\nto the gymnasium has been constructed The playing field as far as the\nactual laying out and turfing is concerned, is now finished. It only remains for the forces of nature to\nstrengthen the turf to the extent tnat\nit may be used for playing purposes.\nAn auxiliary practice ground is at\npresent under construction.\nAlthough the main field will not\nwitness any gigantic struggles this\nseason, the new track will be well\nbroken to by the time 'final examinations appear on the horizon again.\nOfficials of the tr-~'- club state that\nthe 220 and the O tracks will be\nused this fall and spring to raise\ntrack to the high position among major sports which it once held. Inter-\nfaculty, inter-class and inter-collegiate meets will be held on the new\ncinder oval.\nExpensive Drainage\nA large portion of the monies raised to the stadium campaign has been\nspent on the drainage system, which\nis reputed to dry the field completely within ten hours of the heaviest\nrain. A huge three foot drain fed\nevery twenty feet by a smaller auxiliary drain, traverses the field from\ngoal to goal. This will ensure a dry\nfield for all games.\nGreat care has been exercised to\nthe laying out of the track. It is an\nexact duplicate of the track used at\nHamilton, Ontario lor the Canadian\nOylmpic trials in 1928 and for the\nBritish Empire games of recent date.\nThe 220 yaid or straightaway is 47\nfeet wide, allowing six lanes. A six\ninch gravel base is topped by three\ninches of fine sand and the whole\nsurfaced with a mixture of cinders\nand hard pan. This assures a dry, hard\ntrack -for our star athletes to break\nrecords on.\nNew Tennis Courts\nOn the 440 yard track.all the curves\nare banked, at the rate of one quarter\ninch to each foot,, giving a total rise\nof six inches at the outside edge on\nall the curves. Their banking is a\nnecessary help to the runners to the\nquarter mile event The stadium\nplans also include six tennis courts,\nof which one has already been built,\nand another is under construction.\nThese will make a welcome addition to the resources of the advocates\nof the ball and racquet at U.B.C.\nPractices On - Auxiliary Field\nThe main field of the stadium will\nbe used only for regular league games\nof major teams. Practices and other\ngames will take place on the auxiliary field which will also be the\nbattle ground for minor sports.\nThe plans of this student enterprise and this summer's work have\nbeen supervised by Professor Buck\nof the faculty of Agriculture who\nhas given much of his valuable time\nand the benefit of a wealth of experience to the end that the U. B. C.\nStadium shall be the best on the Pacific Coast.\nSong Writer\nInitiation Ordeals Planned\nFor Frosh Include Berets.\nHazing and Pyjama Parade\nFreshmen to Parade to Grid Game at Athletic Park Sept. 26.\nFrosh Reception Will Mark Recognition of\nNewcomers On the Campus\nPrexy to Address\nWomen's Banquet\nAnnual Banquet of die Women's\nEducational Auxiliary will take place\nin Canadian Memorial Hall on Thursday, September 24, at 6.30 p.m. President L.

G. C. Wood\nLeaves Thespians\nDue To III Health\nIn Professor F. G. C. Wood the\nPlayers' Club, one of the most prominent of the campus artistic organizations, has lost an able and distinguished director.\nSince its founding, fifteen years\nago, Mr. Wood has been at the helm.\nHaving studied dramatic art at more\nthan one of the great enstern universities, he has given countless young\nwould-be Thespians a solid grounding\nin the art, as well as turning out\nfinished and brilliant performances\nyear after year, which have brought\nmuch merited distinction to the\nPlayers' Club.\nIn his letter of resignation to the\npresident, Miss Alice Morrow, Mr.\nWood emphasizes the continued cordiality of his relations with the club,\nand his best wishes for its future success. The letter follows:\nUniversity of B. C, Vancouver,\nAugust 27, 1931.\nMiss Alice Morrow,\nPresident The Players' Club,\nUniversity of B. C\u00C2\u00BB\nDear Miss Morrow:\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nIt is with much regret that I have\nto tender you my- resignation as director of the Players' Club. When\ntwo years ago I resumed the work\nafter a season's rest I had hopes of\ncontinuing my association with the\nclub indefinitely. Unfortunately I\nfind that the strain of the Spring\nPlay performance and the management of the tour, involving at least\nthree hours work per day during the\nSpring term, are too exacting, and\nmy physician insists that I cease all\nparticipation to this wsrk. Reluctant as I am to relinquish my connection with the club, I feel the standard\nof this last year, with a record number of performances on tour as well\nas a programme of Christmas Plays\nmade up largely of student effort\ncan be maintained by the energetic\nefforts of the present executive and\nclub members.\nI need hardly assure you that my\nfifteen years as Honorary-president\nand Director of the Players' Club\nhave given me many pleasant memories of good companionship to a\ncause dear to us all.\nWith best wishes for future success,\nI am,\nYours very sincerely,\nF.

Every year\nwe learn more, but the one which\ntakes first-class honours as an unique\nand soul-satisfying experience was an\nevent that took place early this September.\nAfter Varsity closed last Spring,\nthree valiant Redshirts betook themselves to the wilder regions in this\nprovince to build dams, consort with\nDoukhobours, and incidentally garner\na few shekels for another year at\nU. B. C. One was tall, and oh, so\nfair\u00E2\u0080\u0094a goodly knight and honest; one\nwas a sturdy youth who liked his\ncomfort and the proprieties of a dignified life; and the third was a chubby, dark devil with propensities for\nmischief. The latter, being a devotee\nof newspapers, recognized the fact\nthat the great unemployed enjoy\nmany privileges not accorded to the\nordinary man. For instance, with a\nlittle luck, they travel all over the\ncountry free of charge on such\nprincely conveyances as freight cars\nand tenders.\nNow as the time was drawing close\nfor departure to the coast city and\nAlma Mater, the chubby little devil\nbegan to tempt his upright companions with hints of the money rail-\nriding would save, and the adventure\nsuch a trip would be. They weakened and consented to try it with him\n\u00E2\u0080\u0094and here's where Chubby showed\nhimself in his true black colours. For\nhe received an offer of conveyance\nto Vancouver by motor-car, and coolly left his innocent friends to get\nalong as best they might with the\nproblem of securing free transportation. Bravely they carried on, with\nsome initial success. Four hours of\nclinging to a tender, four hours of\npiercing mountain cold, and the adventure became a nightmare, with\nthe worst still to come. Ignorant of\ntheir approaching fate, the amateur\ntramps hailed Grand Forks with relief. At the worst, the train would\nstop there but a moment, and they\nmight get a chance to \u00E2\u0096\u00A0warm themselves. They had Chubby's word for\nit that the train was never searched\nhere\u00E2\u0080\u0094but on this fateful night at\nleast, an inspector lost no time in\nmaking the rounds and gathering up\nthe vagrants, and among them were\nthe harassed and startled Red Shirts.\nHe hustled them, still protesting into the Grand Forks jail, a palatial\nstructure measuring about 10 feet by\n12 feet, and already housing about\nhalf a dozen tramps. The newcomers\nwere given an. hospitable welcome,\neven being greeted by name. Really,\nthe people these college men associate with during the summer!\nProtests were of no avail. They\nwere there to stay 'until morning.\nwhen they would appear before the\nmagistrate. Philosophically they sat\nthem down in that strange company\nand tried to cheer them with the\nPrisoner's Song, but their efforts\nwere received very surlily. Followed\na most uncomfortable night, and\nfinally morning. The fair knight\nroused his miserable friend\u00E2\u0080\u0094\"Hey!\nWhat time is it?\" Came a mocking\nvoice from the far corner: \"Huh.\nwhat d'you wanna know the time\nfor? You ain't goin' anywhere!\"\nThe session with the Judge was\nhardly comfortable either\u00E2\u0080\u0094it took a\ncomplete history of their Uvea up to\ntheir ill advised trip on the tender to\nconvince the mighty man they were\nregarded as respectable students in\ncollege circles. Finally bail was secured from a Samaritan of Grand\nForks, and the exasperated Science\nmen were without their prison walls\nonce more, poorer it is true, but fre\".\nThey are now on the trail of their\nlittle dark friend, with murder in\ntheir usually calm and peaceful eyes,\nand purpose in their stride.\nAny one wishing to know the identity of the two famous' prisoners\nshould get in touch with Gu\u00C2\u00AB Made-\nley for full particulars.\u00E2\u0080\u0094M.A.D.\nChanges Needed\nBlurbs Graduate\nRufus McGoofus\n+\u00E2\u0080\u009E_..\nMUCKATORIAL\n\"Student life at the University of\nBritish Columbia is too dull and hum\ndrum,\" stated Mr. Rufus W. McGoofus, prominent U. B. C. graduate,\nin an interview granted to the press\nlast night.\nTaking this statement as a basis\nfor argument, Mr. McGoofus went on\nto say that in his opinion there were\nmany openings for improvement in\nour college life.\n\"Take for example the bus stand,\"\nsaid Mr. McGoofus. \"Experts have\ncalculated that one thirty-fourth of\nthe student day is spent at the bus\nstand. Why not inaugurate a system\nwhereby waiting may be combined\nwith pleasure. A bowling alley could\nbe established on the west side of\nthe stand, and punching bags could\nbe suspended from the outer edges\nof the roof to give Science men a\nvent for their surplus energy. Pen-\nny-in-the-slot machines would provide the Aggies with amusement,\nwhile for the ladies a beauty parlor\ncould be established in the southwest corner.\"\nLeaving the topic of the bus stand\nMr. McGoofus went on to speak of\nthe Library.\n\"Instead of silence signs,\" resumed\nour noted graduate, \"the library\nmight be equipped with a supply of\nmaxim silencers. Each student, on\nshowing .his library card, should be\nfitted with one of these silencers and\nwould thus be able to study without\nbeing under the onus of continually\nremembering that silence is essential\nThe only drawback to this system\nis that the wearer of the silencer is\nunable to breathe, but this is a minor\nfault.\"\n\"The Aggie building,\" Mr. McGoofus continued, \"is the center of one of\nray most important suggestions for\nimprovement. In each entrance to\nthe building I suggest a cleansing\napparatus be installed whereby all\nAggies may be rendered fit to mingle\nwith the rest of the student body upon their exit from the building. Students in this faculty need not, if they\nwish, go through this process upon\nentering the building, but compulsory abultions are necessary before\nleaving.\"\n\"All these suggestions,\" went on\nMr. McGoofus, \"axe merely tentative\nand only try to point out how easy\nit Would be to improve the lot of the\ncollege student.\"\nHaving now realized our lifelong ambition, that is, having\nbeen appointed Feature Editor, I (or should it be we) embark\nupon the tremendous task of composing my (or our) first\nMuckatoriaL And so, in fear and trembling, I (or we) submit\nmy (or our) attempt.\nAn Editor's life is by no means a bed of roses: far from it.\nBut, having taken up the gage we cannot drop it.

Here we've\nbeen away for only five months and\nwe come back to find the flag pole\nmoved, traffic signs on the boulevard,\nnew tennis courts behind the library,\nand a new Students Council up in\n305. Such changes make it interesting\nto wander round the campus and give\neverything the once over.\nYou'll notice change everywhere\nexcept in your pocket. The Auditorium fire hose is now attired in blue,\nand frogs have reappeared in the lily\npond. And even the fees have been\nchanged. Why should'nt they be?\nWe don't mind. What's twenty-five\ndollars ($25) anyway, especially when\nyou haven't got it? All we have to\ndo is just blame the depression and\ndo without a new overcoat.\nThe depression can be blamed for\na lot of other things, too. Take the\nstadium site for instance. Why is\nit away off behind the Science building instead of being nearer the Pub.\noffice- Because there's a depression\nthere, that's why.\nThere's one consolation anyway.'\nPeople don't have to worry about\nkeeping the wolf away from the door\nnowadays because there's such a\ncrowd of salesmen around it that the\npoor beast is left out in the cold.\nWhat this University needs is a\ngood five-cent dish of applesauce.\nof course, what I'm dishing out right\nnow is pretty good but you're not\npaying me far it. You are getting\nlota of other stuff too that you are\nnot paying for. That's why there's\na business depression In this country.\nIf you students had to give out good\nmoney for your sugar and salt that\nyou get in the Caf. and your blotters\nyou get in the book store then a few\nmore thousands of dollars would get\ninto circulation. And if those students to whom I give cigarettes\nevery day and to whom I give \"lifts\"\ntwice a day would pay me, then I\ncould state with assurance that the\neconomic depression would be gone\nso far as I was concerned,\nso far as I was concerned.\u00E2\u0080\u0094T.

Not so much\nas a whisper reached our straining\nears. Then the noise began again. It\nwas a funny noise, a low, whirring\nsound that rose to a high crescendo\nand then fell away to a whisper to\nculminate in a gurgle. Such a noise\nas would be produced by a set of\nangry false teeth on a drunk, or an\nbeetle on its way home from an\nEnglish letcure.\n\"Did you hear it?\" buzzed Eraile\nin my off ear. Emile, by the way,\nis a great man in his way. For two\nyears captain of the Chess team, he\nwon his big block in Gym. Club last\nyear.\n\"Yes,\" I breathed, \"what can it be?\"\n\"Oh, probably the janitor asleep,\"\ncame the answer.\nBut that was out of the question.\nNo janitor alive, even our janitor,\ncould produce a noise as loud as that,\nand then and with such a beautiful\ngurgle. No, the janitor as a possible\nexplanation was beyond probability.\nSuch a noise, however, must be ltj-\nvestigated, so, seizing bmy trusty copy\npencil, I crept from the room signalling Emile to follow.\nDown into the Caf we slowly edged, every nerve alert and ready to\nrun at the first provocation. Up to\nthe counter our trembling procession\nmade its way, our cautious footsteps\nechoing strangely in the hollow stillness. Into the forbidden regions beyond the ice-cream refrigerator we\nslunk until we reached the back\nwall of the building. Turning to the\nleft we explored our path in the semi-\ngloom eagerly searching for suspicious\nlooking objects.\nThen the noise began again, very\nclose this time and seeming to come\nfrom beneath the floor.\nThafs funny,\" gasped Emile,\nthere's nothing down there but the\nforce of gravity. Dr. Shrum said so.\"\nThen a thought struck me. Getting\nslowly up, I faced about to speak\nto Emile, but he was gone.\nFrantically clutching In my pocket fear my copy pencil, I ran hither\nand yon throughout the Caf, calling\nloudly on Emile to answer me if he\never loved me, but my search was\nfruitless. Wearily I returned to the\nspot where Emile had been, and sat\ndown on an overturned bucket.\n\"Alas,\" I sobbed, \"poor Emile. little\ndid I think I would miss him so, and\nbesides he owes me 35 cents.\"\nAs I sat thus, sadly ruminating, another thought came to me. This time\nhowever, I was ready for it Leaping nimbly aside, I felled it with a\none-two to the jaw and watched it\nslowly collapse at my feet. It was not\nbad as thoughts go. A trifle undeveloped perhaps, but nevertheless\nfairly substantial. Just as I was about\nto pick up the unconscious thought, I\nfelt a slight touch on my shoulder.\nRigid with fear, I turned slowly\nand confronted the Thing that stood\nswaying slightly before me. Somehow it looked familiar but where I\nhad seen it before I could not remember. Still- rigid with; fear I waited\nfor the Thing to speak. A minute passed in silence, two minutes, three\nminutes, the strain was terrific. I\ncould stand it no longer. Whipping\nout my copy-pencil, \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 I leaped forward\nshouting the Pub. war-cry, \"Shrdlu,\nEtaoin Shrdlu\" I set about the apparition right, lustily. Beginning with\na flying tackle which would have\ndone a Big Four Rugby man credit,\nI brought the Thing low with a rending crash, and then followed up with\na scrambling, hacking biting attack.\nBut the ghostly enemy melted away\nfrom my clutch and left me holding\nmy last year's overcoat, badly torn at\nthe collar. Above me was the hook on\nwhich it had been hanging.\nBefore me stood Emile, quaking\nwith suppressed glee.\n\"Curses!\" I snarled. \"Where have\nyou been?\" .\n\"Sh-h-h-,\" Emllle cautioned\n\"What is it?\" I hissed.\n\"Come,\" he replied, \"follow me.\"\nMuckateer\nDiscovers\nI Blue & Gold\nVisitors to the Auditorium building\nwill perhaps have noted that the\nfoyer hose has apparently disappeared from its usual place. But this\nis not actually and really so. The\nhose is cunningly concealed by two\nblue and gold curtains which are so\ndraped as to hide nearly all the old\nfamiliar fire appartus. However the\neffort of the camouflage department\nhave not been completly successful.\nPerhaps the hose is still left partially\nrecognizable so that in case of a conflagration the frantic fire fighters\nmay be able to find some means of\nextinguishing the blaze. But nevertheless, the possibilities of this sort\nof partial camouflage are tremendous.\nEven now the Faculty may be staying up late at nights sewing diligently on decorations for their offices.\nImagine, if you can, a typical prof's\nden transformed almost overnight\ninto a chamber more resembling the\ninterior of a turkish harem than a\ncubicle of staid learning. Everywhere a rhapsody in blue and gold,\nwith tassled fringes.\nThe classrooms could be infinitely\nimproved by the addition of\ncushions to the desk-seats while each\ndesk might be curtained off in worthy attempt at seclusion.

The\nfrogs have returned to the lily pond.\nYea, there they are, somewhat the\nworse for wear, but nevertheless\nthere. What does it matter if the\nnorth frog has a dent over his right\neye caused by an over zealous sophomore during the never-to-be-forgotten battle of the Lily Pond last year,\nwhile south frog will never look the\nsame. His whole countenance has a\ndecided hangdog cast, due to a slight\nflattening of the probiscus. North\nfrog spouts his stream of water exactly 2.03 centimeters farther than\nsouth frog because of this defect.\nHowever, south frog has been compensated by placing one more lily\npad in his corner. The water in the\npond has been deepened slightly to\npermit complete drowning of freshmen and sophomores. Last year's\nfailures along this line are expected\nto be remedied by this improvement.\nBut to get back my frogs. Both\nfrogs have been given a coat of\ngreen paint, adding lustre to the library decorations. North frog has a\ntrifle more paint on his body but\nsouth frog balances this by being\nslightly higher out of the water.\nSouth frog's jet of water seems to\nhave a deeper gurgle. The latter\nfrog's countenance has such knowing\nleer that I immediately presumed he\nwas a Science frog. South frog's\nface supported a goodly portion of\nthat table on its way into the lily\npond\u00E2\u0080\u0094hence the pug nose. Another\nargument in favor of south frog being a Science frog is that he has a\ndecidedly empty ring to his head.\nPerhaps, however he may be only\nan innocent victim, framed into this\nhorrible position by his manufacturers. And, so pondering, I turned and\nresumed my interrupted stroll.\nBut my thoughts fled elsewhere.\nStirring memories of olden times\nflitted before my half closed eyes in\npanorama. The Battle of the Lily\nPond returned in vivid detail.\nThe mighty hordes of semi-victorious Sophomores struggling with bewildered but valiant Frosh. The\nshouts, the cries of woe, the awful\nscreams of dying men, all mingled\nwith the confused roar of battle.\nOn my right I have the Sophs, on\nmy left the Frosh. (Incidentally I\nam in an awkward position as they\nare on each side of the pond). Each\nfaction has paused, gasping for\nbreath. Suddenly a leader forces his\nway to the van, leaping on the van he\nurges his followers on. With hoarse\nshouts the hordes surge forward and\ngrapple fiercely. A wild cry from\nthe throat of a drowning victim rends\nthe already shattered air (when reading aloud repeat sentence 32 times).\nSuddenly all is peace. The retiring\ncombatants carry off their dead and\ndying. It is lunch time.\nVance\u00E2\u0080\u0094I think I'll get a speedometer for my car.\nHenderson \u00E2\u0080\u0094 Speedometer, Hell!\nWhat you need is a calendar.\nFrank L.

Two teams have been entered\nin the senior league. With such tried stalwarts as Phil Barratt,\nBobbie Gaul and Howie Cleveland returning, it is hoped to build\nup a powerful rugby machine to win back laurels carried of by\nVarsity in former years.\nCaptain Dick Nixon will have at his command a nucleus of\nMcKechnie Cup veterans including Roy McConnachie, Art\nMercer, Courtney Cleveland, Jim Mitchell, Dave Ellis, Derry\nTye and Chris Dalton, as well as Barratt, Gaul and H.

A second division\nteam will be out to defend the Bell-\nIrving Cup, won last year under the\nmentorship of Gil Mcllmoyle, now\npresident of the club. Two intermediate teams, one composed entirely of\nfreshmen will be fielded, in order\nto give all players a chance to wear\nthe Blue and Gold.\nPractices wil be held every Wednesday on the campus oval; while additional morning turn-outs may be\narranged as the season gets under\nway.\nRod Pilkington, Arts 'SO Grad, is the\nlatest addition to the English Rugby\ncoaching staff on the campus and will\npilot the 2nd fifteen through the 1931-\n32 season.\nPilkington was a member of this\nsquad for three years and on two\noccasions played with the team In\nthe provincial final against Victoria\nCollege. He is thus able to appreciate fully the difficulties of the Super-\nVarsity fifteen and with his sound\nknowledge of the game should guide\nthe squad to the B. C finals once\nmore.\nLast season tile team known as\nMclmoyle's Marvels experienced its\nmost successful season in history, and\nwith Mclmoyle's elevation to the\npresidency of the Rugby dub, Pilkington's appointment means that the\nteam will suffer no loss as far as\ncoaching is concerned and may once\nmore be hailed as marvels.\nStudents To\nEnter ;\nWeak Team\nVarsity Grid Squad, Weakened\nBy Loss of Lettermen, Train\n; For Opening Battle Saturday\nGloom; deep, dismal gloom is by far the dominant air that prevails in the Varsity Canadian\nRugby camp, as the grid proteges of Dr. Gordon\nBurke hustle through the last week of practices\nbefore taking the field next Saturday night\nagainst the much rejuvinated New Westminster\nWildcats in the opening battle for the students\nthis fall.
