String Quartette in G\nmajor, op. 54 No. 1 (No. 57)\nHaydn.\nFrank Joseph Haydn, famous Austrian composer, who is often called\nthe father of symphony, was born at\nRohrau in 1732. He gave evidence\nearly of great musical talent and in\n1740 came to Vienna as a chorister at\nSt. Stephen's Church. His career was\nnot an easy one, and his life was\nnot made any happier by a marriage\nto a selfish and ill-tempered woman\nwho had not the slightest understanding of his genius. However, Haydn's\ncharacter was such that overcoming\nall difficulties, he was able to leave\nus never ending inspiration in a series of masterpieces in every line of\nmusical composition. Of these among\nthe best are his numerous string\nquartettes and it may well be said\nthat he is the father not only of the\nsymphony but also of the classical\nstring quartette. The form of neither\ntha classical symphony nor the string\nquartette may be said to originate\nwith Haydn but he endowed both\nthese styles with new life by reason\nof his vivid imagination, his perfect\nmastery of the art of voice leading,\nand his ability to compose themes of\noutstanding beauty and charm.\nThe quartette to be played tomorrow is in every sense an example of\nthe best work of Haydn in expression\nthrough the quartette form. The first\nmovement (allegro con brio) has that\nappealing vitality, the second movement (allegretto) that serene beauty,\nthe minuet (menuetto-trio) that dainty grace, and the finale (presto) that\ncaptivating dash which endears such\nmusical gems to music lovers all over\nthe world.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 * \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 *\n2. String Quartette in E flat\nmajor, op. 51. Dvorak.\nAnton Dvorak, the composer of the\nfamous New World Symphony, has\nalso written several beautiful string\nquartettes, one of which, because of\na use of Negro themes, Is called the\nNigger Quartette.\nTo-morrow, however, the quartette\nis presenting a composition which although different in style is none the\nless truly representative of Dvorak's\ncharacteristic work.\nThe first movement shows in its\nsmooth flowing strains that lovaly\nsubdued mood which reminds us of\ncertain of the passages in the New\nWorld Symphony. It could well be\ninterpreted as a vision or dream as\nits beauty is undisturbed from the\nbeginning to the end. It has sonata\nform, purposely avoiding however\nany strong contrast between first and\nsecond themes. Thus the mode of expression is unified to one definite\nmood. The second movement is entitled Dumka. It is an Elegy in which\nthe theme is sung by the first violin\nand answered by the viola. The middle part is a Vlvacu in Scherzo style\nwhich makes a welcome contrast to\nthe slower movement into which it\nagain leads. The third movement,\nwhich Dvorak called Romance, ,is in\nthe key of B flat major and is of a\noecullarly subdued but at the same\ntime happy character. The setting for\nstring quartette should be especially\nappreciated as a wonderful example\nof writing for four individual voices.\nThe Finale shows some real Bohemian temperament. The pace which is\nmostly fast is interrupted only by two\npassages of a slightly slower tempo.\nThe decided touch of briliancy in tho\nmiddle section is also manifest during the last coda.\n(Please turn to Page 2)\nWAIVER DAY TODAY\nCaution Money\nTo Be Given\nTo_Fund\nWaivers May Be Signed Any Time\nToday\nMEETINGS APPROVE\nWord wa* received\nby the Ubyssey last\nnight that today has\nbeen set aside as' Wai-\nv e r Day*. Students\nwith Caution Money\nWaivers will flock\nover the campus all\nday. You will be asked to sign away your\nunused caution money\nto the Union Building\nfund. An Arts Men\nand a Women's Undergrad meeting yesterday agreed to this\nmethod of raising\nsome of the $30,000.\nThe reports of those\nmeetings are given below.\nTime To Act!\nA mere $600 has been raised to date for the Union\nBililding fund. Two weeks ago more than a thousand\nstudents pledged themselves to see the campaign through\nto a successful finish. And yet, the personal subscriptions are not coming in.\nIn 1930, a campaign for the gymnasium raised $20,-\n000. Those were supposedly hard times - - but the money\nwas raised by a student body enthusiastically behind the\npropect. All that is needed today is effort. A few hours\nhard work on the part of every student would bring in\nthe desire damount.\n$20 from every undergrad \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 a total of $30,000\nas against the $20,000 that outside organizations are\ngiving us. It is absolutely necessary that the cam*\npaign be a success, if for no other reason than to\nprove that the student body will live up to its promises made two weeks ago.\nIf the students will wake up from their indifference\nlong enough to put this campaign over, the University\nof the future will gain a building that will raise the student life to a university level - - a building that will do\nits part to turn out graduates ready to tackle the business\nworld.\nAnnual Coed Ball\n# * * *\n>'< $ >h\n* * \u00C2\u00AB *\nIn Crystal Ballroom Thursday\nAbout 5000 will be added to\nthe Union Building fund by the\naction of the Artsmen who decided to turn over their caution\nmoney.

This leaves $30,000,\nor a fifth of the total sum, to be raised by the student body.\nThe campaign method of paying for the building is necessary because it is well-known that the Government will be unable for a long time to provide the Univ^^sity with any new\nstructures. ^ _ _\n. \u00E2\u0080\u0094* rjij^ coj]ege at preSent is fto more thaiHMKry*school - - with\nno facilities to enable the students to get together. There is a\ndefinite need for integration, a need that the proposed building will fulfill. The Union Building will provide pleasant surroundings for student life. A true University must have more\nthan lecture rooms - - it must provide for the extra-curricular\nlife of the student body.\nFew Hours Sincere Work Needed\nAll that is needed is a few hours sincere work on the part\nof everyone, it is stressed. $20 raised by every studnt will insure the success of the project.\nIt is pointed out that the Union Building will be entirely for\nthe use of students. It will be their building, and will serve Hi\npurpose to bring all student activities under one roof.\nA successful conclusion to the campaign will change the\nfuture history of the University of British Columbia. With\nfour-fifths of the needed $150,000 being offered by other organ*\nizations, it is up to the undergraduates to prove their ability to\nraise the remaining $30,000.\nAll organizations are bending their efforts to sponsor affairs\nfor the campaign. The only department that is falling down is\nthe personal solicitations. These must increase before the money\ncan be raised.\nThe coming week will see the success or failure of the\nUnion Building campaign. For obvious reasons, it must not be\nallowed to fail. The reputation of the University is at stake,\nwith the entire province of British Columbia watching the efforts of the students. The Twenty-first Anniversary of U.B.C.\nshould be fittingly marked by the erection of the Student Union\nBuilding.\nCouncil Discusses Campaign\nAt the regular Council meeting last night, the probem of\nsoliciting one's friends for donations to the Union Building was\ndiscussed in all its aspects.\nRalph Killam pointed out the difficuties and unpleasantness incurred by the students doing the soliciting.\n\"If the students are not willing to make a slight sacrifice,\"\ndeclared Gould, \"they are not standing by the Alma Mater Society. The building they are working for will have a greater effect on the University than anything we have ever done.\"\n\"This is the first time in five years that the students have\nbeen asked to make the slightest sacrifice to their Univrsity,\nand it probably won't happen again for another five years.\"\nIn the discussion that followed Council made it plain that\nthis was a different matter from soliciting money for one's self.\nIt meant asking the individual to contribute to the Provincial\nUniversity, which, declared Killam, was in dire need of help.\nRoutine business, including a grant to the Swimming\nClub, closed a short meeting.\nR.

Unique because nobody has been willing\nbefore to risk his pocketbook in offering decent music in these realms consecrated to the\nsacred cause of pep. This time backing has\nbeen forthcoming from a public spirited professor.\nCouncil would not sponsor the concert as\nthey figured that the Union Building was covering them with enough glory. If we thought\nthis is a tacit admissipn by Council that this\nconcert could not attract enough students to\nmake it pay, we should withdraw our support\nof the Union Campaign at once. Because students, who are so illiterate that they cannot\npatronize a recital, do need a Union building\nwith its lounge rooms and dance floors, but\nlonger hours in the class rooms and library.\nOf course, the students are not as benighted\nas Council supposes them. There is nothing\neither good or bad but thinking makes it so,\nsaid Mr. Shakespeare, maybe anticipating the\nmind of the collegiate Olympian. The recital\nmay actually make a little profit, to Council's\nchagrin! It ought to, it is a splendid program.\n_ o\t\n\u00C2\u00BB ANOTHER IDEA FOR RAISING FUNDS\nIt was suggested to us the other day that the\nMusical Society and the Players' Club join\nforces this year, in giving a week of entertainment at a downtown theatre. That is, presenting \"Pirates of Penzance\" and \"She Stoops To\nConquer\" on, say, alternate nights. In this fashion, a larger public would be attracted than\nis usual at University Theatre, and the profits\nto swell the Union Building Fund would be\nconsiderable.\nWe do not, you notice, propose this ourselves. Suggesting things to the musicians and\nThespians of this fair campus is dynamite, and\nthe Ubyssey from bitter experience, knows better now than to toy with it.\nBut we do confess that the idea seemed\nworth passing on to you. And in the bargain,\nincidentally, contact with a pleasure-seeking\naudience rather than the usual precious university patron might well vitalize the two\nClubs. What do they say?\n... Cam Gorrie came out with a bright one\nat the Union Dance ... he said, \"I can't seem\nto work up any enthusiasm over the girls on\nthis campus in the daytime, but at night they\nseem to look different\u00E2\u0080\u0094almost attractive\" . . .\nyou shouldn't say things like that to a columnist, Cam . . . speaking of the Union Dance, we\nwould suggest orchids to the committee in\ncharge . . . but a nice bouquet of onions to\none of the Salisbury Lodge boys, who is alleged to have made his entrance via an open window . . . people who gyp their own University\nare low ... it was Bill Sargent up in the fly\ngallery that let those weights down over the\nheads of the orchestra at the pep meet last\nThursday . . . and it was Norm De Poe who\ngot a pretty Valentine through the Arts Letter Rack . . .\nSHUNNED\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00E2\u0080\u00A2\nSPELLING\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00C2\u00BB\nSTYLE\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00E2\u0099\u00A6 \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00E2\u0080\u00A2\nSNOOPING\nON BEING SHUNNED\nIT'S been no fun during the past two weeks\nif you belonged to the Ubyssey staff. Naturally enough, all your friends and acquaintances steer clear of you when they have an\nidea that you might be in some way infected\nwith mumps or something more deadly.\nFour times at the Union Dance I had just\ncommenced trotting with some fair companion\nwhen she would suddenly go into reverse until\nshe was at arm's length and then ask, \"Say,\nyou haven't got the mumps, have you?\" It\nmay not have been actually embarrassing, but\nit was an nuiscence.\nThen, when walking through the caf, you\ncan almost hear the group at the table say,\n\"Don't get too close to him, he works on the\nUbyssey, and they've all got mumps.\"\nWe're seriously contemplating publishing a\nlist of Pub members who are immune to mumps\nin order that they can associate with their former friends again. For all I know, such a list\nmay even appear in this very issue. But there\nis one list that doesn't have to be published,\nthe names of those who can't carry mumps,\nfor that includes everyone on the campus. It\njust isn't that kind of a disease.\nCampaign\nQuips \u00C2\u00BB\nSidelights on the\nUnion Building\nCampaign\nSPELLING\nTHE Musical Society, in an earnest endeavor to publicise their coming operetta, \"Pirates of Penzance,\" sent out an unusual circular to the general public. Because of the nature\nof the production, the circular was spelt partly in Olde English spelling. So imagine our\nsurprise when an irate gentleman phoned the\nUbyssey office and demanded to know why in\nthunder he should pay taxes for a University\nwhen they sent messages to the public that\nwere actually spelt wrong!\nAnd furthermore, he added didn't the students of this University know that \"cutthroats\"\nhad no \"e\" on the end?\nThe fact that the complaining gent in the\nabove instance didn't separate the Musical Society from the student body as a whole, but\nlit into the entire lot of us, is another example\nof the truth that the University is known by\nthe actions of any part of it.\nSo every organization, from the small discussion clubs to the daddy of them all, The\nPlayers' Club, has got to be careful in anything\nthey do that reaches the general public. For\nmost of that public is willing to take any irregularity as an exuse to rail against the University of British Columbia\u00E2\u0080\u0094that expensive playground for the children of the rich!\nEXPERIMENT\nHE Editor of the Ubyssey, usually a staid\nI JL individual who follows a standard policy\nin most things, has caught the experimenting\nbug, and there's no stopping him! Aided and ab-\nbetted by the Senior Editors, he has attempted\nto change the heading on the first page. Tired\nof the Old English type, and anxious to follow\nthe example of that reputable journal, \"The\nTimes\" (the one that people write letters to\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nnot the New York one) he has placed a straight\nordinary type in the spot.\nIn an effort to draw the change to the attention of the readers, who probably otherwise\nwouldn't have noticed it, the editor wrote an\neditorial, which you probably didn't notice either. And so, because it's a ten to one bet that\nmore people read this column than editorials,\nwe'll tell you that the editor wants to know if\nyou like the change, or if you don't much care.\nPersonally, the last qualification suits me\nbetter. After all, its the paper and not the jiggers at the top of the page that need remodelling if anything does.\nNANCY'S THREE DOTS\n... a journalistic device that Nancy Prancing Miles didn't invent ... but made good use\nof . . .

Song of the Volga Boatman. Transcribed by\nPochon.\nThis famous Russian song has been\nset for various combinations of instruments. It is very effective for\nstring quartette, especially in this\nsplendid arrangement by Alfred\nPochon. The latter, who was for many\nyears a member of the well known\nFJonzaley quartette, was thoroughly\nfamiliar with quartette music and\nwith the possibilities of the four instruments. He was thus well fitted\nto make a number of arrangements\nfor string quartette which Carl Fischer of New York has edited and\nfrom which the present arrangement\nwas taken.\n\u00E2\u0099\u00A6 \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00E2\u0080\u00A2\nb.

The\nNocturne to be played tomorrow is\ntaken from his eeond string-quartette.\nIt forms a very suitable number in\nitself and shows Borodine as a skilful\nwriter for this medium of expression.\nThe beautiful theme has \u00C2\u00BBreat originality and the manner of its introduction, first by the cello, then by\nthe first violin, is very effective. The\nalternative themes have an interest\nof their own and an unmistakably national flavor. The voice-leading is\nhighly individualized and the ending\nin the higher range of the strings is\nextremely poetic. It is a magnificent\npiece, written in a styte that combines\nin a remarkable way, the elements\nboth of lyricism and heroism.\nPeeps' DSary\nA modern Leap Year song suitable for male consumption these\nhumble days before the Co-ed.\nAh, me! why should I marry me?\nLovers are plenty but fortunes are few.\nWhy lose wages that carry tne\nBetter by far than a husband could do?\nFond youth, fondly I'm viewing you,\nSteeling a heart that might flutter and throb:\nI've no thought of pursuing you;\nPoverty's stupid\u00E2\u0080\u0094I'll stick to my job.\nHOIL VS. GASKELL\nLately I have heard .students using the vulgar phrase \"according\nto Hoil.\" They speak as if Hoil had succeeded Gaskell.\nCan it be that in these years of enlightenment they do not realize\nthat British law and social custom is based on precedent? Gaskell\nwas born in 1831 and wrote his famous \"Compendium of Forms\" in\n1884 while Hoil did not reach this earth till 1877 ... and most recent\ndiscoveries have it that he had the honour of being brought up on\nMr. Gaskell's famous work.\nCO-ED ADVICE\nBefore the Co-ed Jack must read some of Gaskell's remarks on\ndancing. \"Dancing is the art of moving gracefully and taking exercise to music. A well-executed dance may be called the poetry\nof motion.\"\nBut he has a tip for girls at the Co-ed too. \"Unmarried ladies\nwill not dance more than twice with the same gentleman, because\ndoing so will suggest a particular attraction.\"\nJ\nStudents' Council should suggest that the library secure a copy\nof Gaskell. Perhaps Jay will in due time .

Their windows display the famous B.itish K\nShoes . . . shoes with an enviable reputation in England for over a\n100 years.\nRIDING .\nSpring will drop suddenly upon us this year which means a long\nseason for riding. Gaskell speaks of riding as \"an elegant and healthful form of exercise. \"He presumes that the gentleman will early in\nlife wish to invite a lady to accompany him and so goes on to say . .\n\"You are not probably the owner of 2 horses, and the horse you\nride is not used to the motion of the riding skirt; so whan you ask\na lady to accompany you, your first care will be to find a horse habituated to the side-saddle and skirt.\"\nPerhaps some of the students who piggy-back their ponies from\nthe Cariboo will find a suggestion a little .too formal but there is one\npiece of advice that everyone should follow ... get your riding\nboots at the British Boot Shop. Women's are priced from J8.95 . . .\nmen's from $10.50.\nSKI RACE\nThe Brynelson Open Challenge had to be postponed another week\nbecause the majority of the contenders went to the A.D. formal in\nSeattle this week-end.\nBut John Cornish DID buy the scarlet windbreaker at Frwl Holmes\nanyway . . .

Fred Holmes carries a wide selection. Perhaps\nMolly will arrive in an even brighter scarlet than Cornish.\nDISTURBING\nI wonder why Dolly hammers on the door before coming in to\nEng 17. Gaskell could make some appropriate remarks.\nANNOUNCEMENT\nJack was telling me the newest event for men in town is the arrival at E. A.

Rumor has it that she will\nbe the inspiration for the spring fever soon to be detected in \"the\ncrackling of thorns.\"\nPRINT\nI saw the smartest afternoon print in the Blue Goose. It had a\nmagenta line pattern on navy blue with fan pleating. A smart dress\nthat Darrel is being complimented on is an irregular plaid . . , navy\nBlue to ash grey. Both some from Anne Moloney.\nWARNING\nHide your cigarettes when Peter Sponger comes in sight. He will\nbe carrying a full case of his own anyway. P. D. O'Brian also has\na racket called \"I'll give you a nickel for every quarter you make\nstand on end.\"\nCONTOURS\nThere are few girls left in life whose hair is naturally wavy . . .\nthe solution for smartness for these girls is to have the ends perm-\nanented at Maison Henri. This will achieve a softened contour for\nyour face. Braids and tuck in curls are a boon to busy students\nwhen the Co-ed Ball comes along. All shades and styles at Maison\nHenri.\nRED VALENTINES\nThere is still hope . . . one more day before the Co-ed. The Carson twins got an unknown valentine of 2 tickets to the Co-ed each.\nSpeak up boys! .\nRed is unlucky for Dr. Morsh. He tells us that he nearly failed\na French exam in his undergrad days because of some scarlet garters across the aisle.\nCHAPEAUX\nThe Co-ed is always much in the spotlight. One of the newest\nstyles in hats is named for her. Perhaps Paris heard of the worthy\nreason behind our Co-ed Ball! Edward and Windsor are the other\n2 in the lead this spring. Curiosity heads for the Band Box.\nTRAVELLERS\nA valentine is not the only cause for a heart throb this February.\nIt has been heralded that Johnny Rose left for home yesterday.\nIn Tasmania Don McDonald and Chris Fletcher are singing over\nthe radio. Perhaps some day they will be generous enough to say\nthat they got their early training at our pep meets. Chris has been\naccused of writing the songs they are singing. As,yet he has made\nno statement for the press.\nEXOTIC\nExotic colors . . . pasha red and mist blue are named among the\ndarker colors for leads in blouses this spring.

His duties as dramatic director consist of listening to the players make love to one another (strictly in the course of the acting, of\ncourse) and then saying to them,\n\"Well, I wouldn't do it that way. Do\nit like this\"\u00E2\u0080\u0094and so on, with all the\nassurance of experience.\nPAYS THE BILL\nMr. Gage was also interested very\nmaterially In the lectures given by\nMr. de Ridder, and he himself put\nup the hundred dollar guarantee required before the Vancouver Symphony Quartet would come to thc Unl\nvcrsity.\nWhile Mr. Gage is working on the\ndramatic part of the production.

About\n5600 has been collected so far. There\nwere strong objections from several\nstudents against the system in which\nthey were expected to canvass friends\nand intimate relations.\nThey were reassured by Jay Gould\nwho said that it is probable that these\nrestrictions will be removed or radically altered in the next day or so.\nOf the several suggestions brought\nup only the matters of the caution\nmoney and of a Pep meet were discussed. The resolution to hold an Arts\nPep meet was defeated as there are\nat least two pep meetings on the list\nin support of the Union Building for\nthe coming week. Other suggestions\nwere to hold an abbreviated Open\nHouse in which Vancouver citizens\nwill have tha opportunity to see how\nthe University runs. It was also suggested that a grand parade be held on\nthe occasion of the McKechnie Cup\ngame at Brockton Point. Good publicity might result if the students all\nwent out to the site of the new building with grub-hoes and brush-hooks\nand did a little actual labor on the\nCONCERMT 3.30\nOn Wednesday in the Auditorium\nat 3:30 p.m., the stduents of the university will have the opportunity of\nhearing the foremost string qu.irtet in\nBritish Columbia in its first recital\nof this year.

She spoke\nparticularly of a large central room\nabout the size of the gym, with a temporary partition dividing it into men's\nand women's common rooms.

C. shipping, Hon. R. L. Maitland, K.C., recounted the engrossing story of B. C.'s maritime\ndevelopment to a Vancounver Institute lecture audience here\nSaturday evening.\nFollowing the rise of Pacific ship-names of past coast boats, Mr. Mait-\nping from its inception on the South land recalled the old Princess Louise,\nAmerican coast in 1828, Mr. Maitland the Otter, the Danube, the Princess\ntreated in greater detail the stormy Sophia, and the Islander, which went\nclays of early coastwise service here, j down with passengers and thousands\nHe stressed particularly the great of dollars in gold on an iceberg in the\nboost to shipping furnished by the North. The Charmer merited special\nthree great gold rushes\u00E2\u0080\u0094California, mention: \"She was an old otvil who\nthe Klondike, and Fraser River. Dur- feared nothing, bumped everything,\ning the California rush, the Pacific and carried on for 45 years.\"\nMail lines brought 175,000 gold-seekers around the Horn to the West\ncoast, and returned $200.000.0'i0 in gold.\n\"Then as now,\" said Mr. Maitland,\n\"gold all went b.ick to the East.\"\nPADDLE-WHEELERS\nThe Transpacific trade, originating\nin San Francisco when the paddle-\nwheeler \"Colorado,\" about -he size of\n'.he C.P.S.S. \"Princess Alice\" of our\n:oastwise .service, made regular cross-\n'ngs to Yokohama, took on greater\nimpetus with the purchase of the\n\"Abyssinia,\" \"Batavia,\" and \"Parthia\"\nby the Canadian Pacific for Oriental\nservice.\nOther boats were added to the service, then in 1891 the C. P. R. brought\nout three vessels which were the pride\nof world shipping. Vancouver thrilled\nwhen the gleaming white Empresses\nwith their lovely lines entered the\nNarrows, to Increase the seaport's\ncommerce and importance. Thc three\nEmprcsscs\u00E2\u0080\u0094the \"Japan\", the \"India\",\nand thc \"China\" \u00E2\u0080\u0094 bulked 5900 tons\neach, the size of our larger coast boats\ntoday.\n\"Whatever advances have been made\nsince then, there will never be any\nprettier boats,\" Mr. Maitland stated.\nAUSTRALIAN TRADE\nAustralian trade was first handled\nby the \"All-Red\" route, which was\ntaken over in 1897 by the Union\nSteamship Company of New Zealand.\nThe \"Aorangi\" represents the efficiency and comfort of this service today.\n\"There is nothing more romantic or\ndelightful than the story of the little\n\"Beaver.\" the speaker reflected in\ntelling the tale of this sturdy vessel\nbrought out by the Hudson Bay Company exactly one hundred years ago.\n101 feet in length and of 109 tons, the\n\"Beaver\" in her long career rendered\nthe greatest service and became the\ngreatest landmark of the B.C. coast.\nKing William and 150,000 spectators\nwitnessed her launching; on her 163-\nday voyage out here, via thc Falk-\n'and Islands, Cape Horn and Hawaii,\nihe left her escort, the \"Columbia\",\n\"ar astern; she was the trade-, the policeman, and tho warship of this\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2oast; her life was altogether one of\niistinction and note.\nTo Captain John Irving, whose mas-\n'crful business ability built up thc\n-oast wise fleet which became thc Canadian Pacific Coast Service, Mr. Maitland paid admiring tribute. Associated\nfrom thc first with B. C. maritime\ntrade. Captain Irving is established as\none of thc greatest figures In shipping\nhere.\nFOR 45 YEARS\nMentioning some of the famous\nA classic story in coast shipping\nannals was told in connection with\nthe checkered career of the Charmer;\nshe had collided with the American\nsteamer, Williamette, in U.S. waters,\nand had been pushed ashore on Bush\nPoint. Captain John Irving, who was\nliable under international marine law\nin the States, resolved to sail the\nCharmer back to Victoria and to escape any retribution. He tailed to\nAnacortes more or less incognito, and\nen route struck up a friendship with\nthe U.S. Marshal who had been delegated to hold the Canadian captain\nwhen he arrived. On landing. Captain Irving plied the unsuspecting\nnnd unknowing marshal with American liquor until the gentleman was\nquite insensible; then, making a deal\nwith the tavern-keepers to continue\nfurnishing him with alcoholic refreshment should he awake, he made his\nway to the- stranded Charmer. THe\nvessel was repaired, floated, *nd sailed\nback to Victoria, and the doughty\ncaptain escaped unscarred. The\nCharmer never again entered American waters.\nUNION STEAMSHIPS\n\"The story of the Union, Steamship\nCompany is that of the story of Vancouver; it has played a personal part\nin the growth and service of Coast\ndevelopment, and reflects the faith of\nits backers. It is a story of Builders,\"\nstated Mr. Maitland. He recalled the\nold Leonora, the Cutch, the Comox\nand the Capilano, and narrated the\nstory of their struggle to capture sufficient trade to remain operating in\nthe early years before the Company\nhad established itself in the Province.\nMr. Maitland had sincere praise for\nthe ability and competence of Captain Moody and his fellows, who ran\nthe Comox, Cassiar ad Capilano\nthrough the treacherous coast waters\nbefore they were properly charted\nand were largely without beacons,\nbuoys, and bells.\nAn amusing sidelight of the Union\nCompany's earlier days was Mr. Malt-\nland's mention of the camaraderie and\ngood-feeling existing between coastwise passengers and the ships' captains. Informality was the order of the\ntime; \"It was nothing for thc old Cassiar the 'pride of the loggers', to leave\nVancouver with 100 passengers, 75 of\nthem drunk.\" It was the Cassiar whose\ncemented scams gave rise to the classic story that she was made of cement.\nClosing on a note of optimism and\nfaith in the future of Vancouver as a\ngreat seaport. Mr. Maitland also lauded the splendid services of the coastwise companies and of the Pacific\nSalvage Company, which furnishes\nsalvage facilities to international\ndeepsea shipping.\u00E2\u0080\u0094J.

This feature should make\nthis meeting a rather popular one,\nand it might be advisable for any student hiving a keen interest in this\nsubject to secure a seat a little earlier\nthan is usually necessary.\nDonald R. MacLaren was born in\nOttawa and his family came to Calgary in 1898, during the Klondike gold\nrush. He attended public school in\nCalgary, but received his Matriculation in Vancouver in 1912, and entered\nMcGill University.\nHo was engaged in surveying and\nfur-trading in the Northwest Peace\nRiver district from 1914 to 1916. In\nthe spring of 1917 he left Vancouver\nand went into training at Camp Borden in the R.A.F.\nBROUGHT 48 DOWN\nFrom there he went to England and\nwas given his pilot's wings, and finally reached France tn time to take\npart In some of the heaviest work any\nfyers had to do during the entire war.\nIn the eleven months, with the aid of\nwhat his comrades have characterized\nas a mixture of indomitable courage\nand a dead-sure aim, he brought down\nmany German machines\u00E2\u0080\u0094a conservative official record being forty-eight.\nThis figure makes Vancouver's flyer\nthe fourth greatest ace of the R.A.F.\nFollowing the war, he entered commercial aviation in Vancouver in 1924\nand conducted aerial photography\nwork in the Fisheries Department\nPatrol.\nMany consider him to be the finest\npilot in all Canada, due to the fact\nthat he has been flying almost steadily since the war and has never had a\nserious accident. He can handle a light\nplane as capably as a twin-engine\nflying boat, and he is a pilot who takes\nno unnecessary chances. He is a Wing\nCommander ln the Reserve Force of\nthc R.C.A.F.\nAt the present time he holds the\nMajor D. R.

Lambert\nand Price air scored.\nThe U.B.C. team is replete with\nstar material, and can be relied on\nto give the Huskies some real competition. Fred Burnett, right wing on\ntho first string is a reliable player\nwho uses head work instead cf brawn\nto take him places, and who will certainly make a good showing in the\ncoming encounter. Usher and Trussel are consistently good players, and\nPrice always gives a good account of\nhimself. Lambert and Trussel vie\nwith each other for top scoring honor? of the team. The squad recently\nrecruited a burly defense man in the\nperson of Provenzano who besides\nplaying hockey, is the newly-discovered swimming champ of Varsity's\nmermen.\nTickets for the game with the Huskies on Friday are now on sale. All\nproceeds from the game are to be\ncontributed to the Brock Memorial\nFund.

We can imagine what\nwould happen if two teams like the\nGlobe-Trotters got to-gether. Although I must say that the good old\nThunderbirds handed them their\nmoney!s worth. But anyway it was\na dandy game, especially with our\nold friend Mr. Henderson back on the\nfloor.\nI wonder if Henny, Wil'oughby,\nBardsley, Swan, or Osborne will be\nin Varsity colors next year. Remember when the U.B.C. team used to be\nthe worry of the other squads. It\nwasn't quite this year but there'll\ncome a day.\nSay, while I'm on the subject of\nbasketball, a few bouquets should be\nhanded in no uncertain manner to\nMr. Captain Joe. George Pringle\nmust be from the old school or at\nleast one would think so by the fine\nbrand of basketball he has been dishing out to his opponents.\nWe must remember that from now\non most of the games around Varsity\npass the gate receipts to the Union\nBuilding officials. Every student that\nturns out gives just that much more\nto the fund.\nThat should be a good game of\n| hockey on Friday. I hear that the\nlocal men are in first class shape for\ni the match with those Washington\nHuskies And they aren't so baa them-\nI selves. The proceeds of this game\nwill go towards our thirty thousand.\n| Our dear old Sports Editor has been\nin bed some time with, (not the\nmumps) a severe cold. We sure hope\nthat it won't be long before he is\nback behind the old typewriter again.\nI The American football team has\nhad a tough season but can they take\nit. Young, Twiss, and Deptford were\nthe masters on this unfortunate crew.\nI Your Pal\u00E2\u0080\u0094Elmer.\nCo-ed Ball Thursday\nIn Crystal Ballroom\n(Continued from Page 1)\nMonday, that the Co-ed was first instituted in efforts to raise money for\nconstruction of a Women's Union\nBuilding on the Varsity campus, and\nalthough the Women's Building idea\nhas been set aside in favor of the\nStudents' Union project, the ciance is\nstill primarily a money-making\nfunction.\nAccordingly, five articles will be raffled at the dance. These will be a\nlarge box of candy, a compact, two\nbars of soap (llfebouy) a set of book-\nends, and a perfume bottle. Tickets\nwill be ten cents apiece, available in\nany number.\nOnce every four years the Co-ed\nBall attains a magnificent appropriateness. With its reversal of ordinary practice with Co-eds financing the\nevening and atempting with varied\nsuccess to provide satisfactory entertainment, Leap Year offers quadrennial opportunity for the weaker sex\nto become temporarily the stronger.\nPatrons and Patronesses for the\nDance include Dr. and Mrs. K.

Harry started\ndribbling down the floor, stopped,\nwaved his hands ln front of D\"t's\neyes and then handed him the ball.\nA supposed victim of hypnosis, Detwiller gracefully accepted the sphere,\nand then dazedly laid it on the floor;\nCross- Country\nRace Put Off\nTill Feb, 26th\nOld man winter has made his presence conspicuous again by postponing\nthe cross-country race that was\nscheduled for Feb. 18.

Sc. 237.\nNOTICE\nPractice in the gym, 3:30 to 4:30 on\nWednesday, Feb. 19. Everybody out.\nNOTICE\nThe last meting of the Maths Club\nwas held at the home of Mr. Miles\nRitchie, last Friday evening. Miss E.\nRaephael gave a very diversified discussion on \"Some Chemical Thermo-\nDynamic Equations.\" Miss F. Wright\ngave an interesting outline on the\nEquation of Solution.\" Miss R. Elliot spoke on the \"Application of Statistics to Mathematics.\"\nFriday noon in the Campus gymnasium, over 1,000 students were\ntreated to an exhibition of smart basketball, and superb showmanship seldom seen in these parts.\nThe Harlem Globe Trotters strutted\ntheir stuff in a big way, with trick\nshots, perfect ball-handling, screen\nplays et al\u00E2\u0080\u0094to chalk up a J9-23 win\n\u00E2\u0080\u0094not that it mattered,\nAlthough the Harlemites were continually in the limelight, Varsity's\nSenior A's, bolstered by \"Henny\"\nHenderson, made a very creditable\nshowing. Charley Hardwick and\n\"Spud\" Davis were the mor.t effective\nof the hard-fighting Collegians.\nThrough most of the first half, the\ndusky hoopers played smart, almost-\nperfect basketball. Again and again,\nthey flashed down the floor with a\nfour-man attack to sink plenty of\nbaskets from close-in. Their screening and interference plays with phenomenal shooting brought rousing\ncheers from the Student supporters.\nIn the second half, the coloured\nboys turned on the heat, went to\ntown, and otherwise enjoyed themselves. A vaudeville show 'hat would\nput the Ziegfeld Follies to shame had\nthe spectators doubled up with laughter.\nInman Jackson, Captain and master\nshowman, started things off in the\nthird quarter. The Harlemites dribbled down the floor on an attack,\nthen stopped about the centre line\nand began passing the ball between\nthe U.B.C. legs, leaving the Collegians open-mouthed. Berry tried\nsnatching the ball from Inman's overgrown paw and that gentleman moved\nthe sphere easily out of the reach of\nthe Varsity hopeful while looking\nreprovingly down on him.\nHarry Rusan, reputedly the smallest forward in professional basketball\u00E2\u0080\u0094he's only 5 ft. 11 inches, had the\ncrowd howling when he put on another one-act comedy. Dribbling\nclown the floor, he suddenly stopped,\nand politely handed the ball to \"Det\",\nwho was checking him. Lloyd was so \u00E2\u0096\u00A0\nsurprised he just laid the melon on\nthe floor and looked at it.\nWith about 5 minutes to \u00C2\u00AB?o, Harry\nfinally became tired of it all, and\nwalked off the floor to ask Archie\nByers of swim fame, what he thought\nof their performance. Archie's sentiments were the same as that of one\nbright member of the crowd, who realized that the Harlem hoopers didn't\nstand a chance of winning, yelling\nout: \"You got 'em Varsity\u00E2\u0080\u0094they can't\ndo a thing.\"\nAlthough the hoarse on-lookers\nyelled for more, Coach \"Doc\" Montgomery explained that the travelling\nwondermen were journeying to Sar-\ndis that night, and were scheduled to\nhumble the Ail-Star Province on the\nfollowing evening.\nBunny Leavitt, diminutive world-\nchampion Free-throw artist, gave another phenomenal exhibition at the\nhalf. Missing 3 out of the first 4\nshots, he went on to sink 63 out of\n69, making one string of 37.\n-F.
