Yet only 10 percent of students\non this campus belong to Greek letter societies.\nIt is true that the average Greek is more active in student\naffairs than the non-Greek, but certainly not by a margin of\n106 to one.\nThe strongest reason for so much Greek representation\non Student Council, however, is the fact that fraternity and\nsorority members vote in a block, with few exceptions. If\ntWo men\u00E2\u0080\u0094one Greek, the other not\u00E2\u0080\u0094are contesting a position, the word goes out among the fraternities and sororities,\nand the Greek can be certain of a sure 400-odd votes.\nThis is not to say that non-Greeks should adopt the same\ntactics, however. They should vote for whom they think is\nthe best candidate. Campaigns should not be divided into\nGreeks versus non-Greeks.\nBut students should provide more \"best\" candidates who-\nare not Greeks, and then they should turn out to the polls\nin large number to support them.\nThe present stuation is unhealthy and intolerable.\nA Bigger List\nFraternities are again endeavoring to enlist new members, and those who would join are now faced with an even\nsmaller number they might enter with a clear conscience.\nUp to now, there have been three fraternities to boycott\nthe ground that their constitutions contain discriminatory\nclauses:\nSAYS GERMAN STUDENT:\nGerman Rearmament To Secure Peace\nAJ-PHA TAT OMICGA\nKAPPA SltiMA SIGMA ('III\nThey should be boycotted despite the fact that they con-\ntewiHhe Clauses are dfthtf&Mef \"by\" international conventions,\nand that they are trying to fight them at that level. For\nthese detestable clauses must remain the responsibility of\ntheir possessors until they are either dropped or defied.\nNow, however, even more fraternities must be placed on\nthe list beside the discriminatory trio. These are the fraternities with the \"gentlemen's agreements\" with their southern\nchapters to maintain racial and religious discrimination.\nJust how many and which fraternities have these agreements cannot be accurately determined\u00E2\u0080\u0094thanks partly to\nthe cover-up activities of Inter-Fraternity Council's sell-\nappointed committee to investigate the agreements.\nNevertheless, the names of these fraternities are not that\nclosely-guarded secret. The prospective fraternity member\nshould be able to determine whether the fraternity of his\nchoice is guilty. It is his duty to do so. Then he must follow\nhis conscience.\nGUEST EDITORIAL\nTax Deal Unfortunate\nFrom Thc Toronto Varsity\nThc recent announcement'from Ottawa that the Federal\nGovernment was prepared to make a considerable concession\nin its tax feud with Duplessis's Quebec has lessened the tension between these two governments. Prime Minister St.\nLaurent stated that in future a deduction of up to 10 pet-\ncent could be made from federal income taxes to offset provincial levies.\nPreviously, the limit had been 5 per cent, and Duplessis\nand St. Laurent had carried on a running battle with such\nepithets as \"Little Caesar\" and \"Centralist\" being hurled\nback and forth between them.\nAlthough this concession on the part of St. Laurent seems\nto alleviate this battle, and will no doubt reassure many\nLiberal French-Canadians as to the friendliness of the Liberal\nregime to their culture, it may be an important and regretable\nlurning point in Canadian history.\nIf the Federal Government had not made this concession\nto the provincial-righters, it might have gained in time the\nexclusive right to most tax fields. The voters of the Province\nmight have turned on.even so obsequious a leader as Premier\nDuplessis if he insisted on imposing provincial taxes to add to\nthe federal levies, when an obvious way out would be to sign\na Dominion-Provincial Tax Agreement.\nThus tho Federal Government might well have extended\nils power and economic influence. And such an extension '\nis needed, if Canada is ever to become one united and vigorous land A system of systematic aid to tfie poorer areas of\nthe land, a national health plan, a national economic plan\nto cope with a major depression, a country-wide scheme for\ncivil defence\u00E2\u0080\u0094even a national scholarship scheme\u00E2\u0080\u0094may all\nwell have to wait unlit the day when the Federal Govern-;\nmerit's resources are larger and its powers wider.\nAnd thai clay has not been brought any closes by the\nPrime-Minister's concession.\nBy FRANZ I.

This fine\nvocal group was at times truly\nmoving in a selection of spirituals and folk songs.\nThe latter half of the program\nconsisted of \"Rhapsody in Blue\"\nfeaturing Vancouver pianist Norma Abernathy. Miss Abernathy\nwas enthusiastically received for\nher interpretation of Gershwin's\njazz classic.\nThe orchestra was at its best\nin solo numbers such as Morton\nGould's 'Pavanne.\" Conductor\nAbas exerted firm command\nover his group throughout the\nconcert.\nThe' orchestra has a small\nthough talented brass and woodwind section with flutist Jean\nMurphy outstanding among the\nmusicians.\nThe violin section needs attention, however, partly because\nit is not large enough to compete with the horn and wind\ninstruments and partly because\nit has not enough experienced\nplayers.\nIt is difficult to criticize the\ngroup, without considering the\nhandicaps under which they\nwork.\nUntil better facilities are provided and an effort is made to\ncoordinate the orchestra under\nthc music department, campus\nmusicians will probably continue\nto withhold their fullest support.\nSociety Asks\nMore Money\nVancouver Symphony has so\nfar raised $24,000 towards meeting its l\u00C2\u00AB>54-f).r> deficit, Robert\nPhilips.

The frats were very obliging, the accommodation\nwas good, and there was a party Saturday night. It was quite a\nparty.\nANYONE GOT THE TIME?\nBut it would also seem all the jam was to make up for thc dill\npickle the Birds were handed when they stepped on the ice.\nFirst of all the goal judges. These were up and coming young\nlads of 14, with an affinity for flashing the red light behind the\nUBC goal every time a Golden Bear hunched his shoulder. At\nleast so the spies say.\nNow it could be these 14 year olds were clever little chappies,\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0and it's a well known fact that prairie infants cut their teeth on\na puck and thus know a bit about the game. But the time-keeper,\nso they say, freely admitted after the series that he'd never run\na time clock before.\nAnd we believe him. It took 58 minutes to play the first period\nFriday night. Saturday, each period was ten seconds too long.\nPARDON US WHILE WE KICK\nFurthermore, the Alberta lads scored in each of those ten\nsecond appendages. It doesn't need too much arithmetical acumen\nto read the final score had the time been on his toes.\nHowever, that's the breaks, of which UBC did not have too\nmany.\nOne word of caution though. If that time-keeper commits errors\nlike that when thc Birds basketball team ambles eastward to meet\nthe court version of the Golden Bears, Alberta will find itself on\nthe wrong end of a rather large score.\nBirds seem to be as good as the basketball team that clipped '.he\nLucht-led Bears last year at UBC. That was when the Bears had\nrun up a long string of victories by beating everything on the\nprairies that passes for a basketball team. This year Alberta has\na won three, lost five record, which as one of their sports writers\nsays isn't conductive to good baskeball.\nThe Bears no longer have Ed Lucht. He and their number two\nman, Don MacKintosh, are playing for the Edmonton Town\nMailers, an organization with its sights set on the Canadian Amateur championships, Olympics and other silverware.\nAs a good start, they beat the Golden Bears 84-49 a few nights\nback.\nJAYVEES PLAY CLOVERDALE\nTONIGHT AT LORD BYNG\nDick Penn's Jayvees, struggling lo keep ahead of the\nupstart Cloverdale basketball team that scrambled closer\nto third place Tuesday with a surprise win over second\nplace Adanacs, will meet those same Cloverdale lads tonight at Lord Byng gym.

With the great\nrebound controlling of Russ\nLanghout (17 points), Dave Horton, and Ron Johnston, urged\nby the occasional yell from manager Frank McTaggart, the\nBraves held down the sharp\nshooting Kivans.\nBraves held a first quarter\nlead of 17-7, and though Kivans\nhad cut the half time lead to\neight points, Braves never had to\nlook back.\nDIFFERENT TEAM\nThey were a completely different team from the outfit that\ngave YMCA 23 points on largely\nunnecessary fouls Saturday\nnight. The Y couldn't miss from\nthe free throw line and the free\ngratis points were one short of\nthe point margin by which they\nbeat the Braves.\nBut Tuesday UBC decided to\nplay basketball and the idea\npayed off. Gary Hill and Horton\nfollowed the high shooting Langhout with 14 and 12 points respectively.\nLONG JAUNT\nBraves wil make a weekend\nthree game trip to the Island\nto warm up for their semi-finals.\nFriday night they play Victoria\nNormal School, Saturday afternoon, Royal Roads, and Saturday night, Vic College.\nWhich is quite a warm-up.\nBALLS TO BOUNCE,\nSOCKS TO Stllff\nIt seems there will be a\nbasketball game and dance\nFriday night in the gymnasium.
