A. M. MacKenzie, in his\naddress to newcomers Thursday, stated that\n\"UBC is now one of the big three Canadian\nuniversities.\"\nTechnically, this is so when the record-\nbreaking enrollment of 5,000 is viewed with\nthe expansions of social service, forestry, and\nmany other courses and faculties, the introduction of law, and coming realization of\nmedicine and pharmacy. In a few strenuous\nyear this university has been boosted to the\ntop in the Canadian educational field by the\nadministration.\nBut, in spite of expansion of educational\nfacilities, no university can be more mature\nthan the type of citizen it produces, especially if the student body is accustomed to\nthe degree of self-discipline and self-government which it possesses at this university.\nA certain degree of maturity has been\nnoticeably lacking here in the past. In prewar days the university itself was young,\nand although later wartime demands necessitated university development, wartime\nstudents, scarce in number and pressed for\ntime, did not seem to develop in all ways\nwith their university. The present campus\nbuilding problem is an analogy: UBC had\nthe concrete foundations for growth but\nlacked building materials.\nHowever, merging of 1800 former service\nmen and women into the student body will\nmean that for the first time in its history\nUBC will have an opportunity to graduate\nnot only academically but spiritually from\nits freshman stages and become a senior\novernight in the Canadian educational field.\nThese 1800 should bring the badly-needed\nstudent maturity needed for this graduation.\nAlthough newcomers are wearing green\nthis week, it is more in recognition of a\ncertain bit of campus tradition than an indication that the student body will take on\nthe ways of the freshmen this year. It's\ndefinitely not a year for freshmen.\nThe realistic UBC slogan \"Tuum Est\" has\nnow taken on a new interpretation. With\nthe arrival of these 1800, \"Tuum Est\" can\nnow be applied to the rest of the university,\nand the faculty and administration has already done its part.\nStresses and Strains\nby Bruce Bewell\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 AT THIS time of year advice to freshmen is the standard topic. In the years\npast leaders of student activity have somehow neglected to call the upperclassmen\ninto a huddle and give them a few words\nof guidance which in some cases are badly\nneeded.\nAll too many of our sophomores, juniors\nand seniors have somehow developed the\nidea that everything the university has to\noffer may be obtained in classrooms and\nlabs. They miss entirely the benefits of\nextra-cirricular activities.\nFor instance, students have been known\nto attend UBC for four years and never set\nfoot in the Brock. They never realize that\nthere is a time in every man's life when o\ncouple of hours \"wasted\" in a bridge game\nwill do more for their mental well being\nthan an equal amount of time spent in the\ncarrals with Bill Shakespeare.\nEver since the Brock was built, Councils\nhave attempted to ket students to make fuller\nuse of the building that they themselves own.\nAt the beginning of the year the freshmen\nfill the lounge but gradually the novelty\nwears off and soon they too go \"big time\"\nand follow the seniors to the more convenient caf. Around the middle of November\nyou could mistake the lounge for an undertaker's waiting room.\nOnce in a while an upperclassman will find\na couple of friends with simillar interests.\nIf he is really up on the constitution of AMS\nhe realizes that if he and his pals form a\nclub, elect a couple of officers and present\na budget they will have a fair chance of\ngetting their activities subsidized.\nIn nine cases out of ten any new club on\nthe campus has a mere freshman somewhere\nwell up in its list of promoters. Freshmen\nare the only ones who bother to read the\nfine print in the back of the \"Tillicum\"\nThey are eccentric enough to want to know\nwhere their money goes.\nLITTLE BLUE BOOK\nIn short, it is time for every upperclassman to borrow a copy of the little blue\nhandbook from the nearest freshman and\nread it from cover to cover. The facts that\nhe will learn about his duties and rights will\nprobably astound him. He will also discover the names of members of council, what\nsocial functions are taking place and when\n(this feature alone is worth the price of\nadmission) and who won the Big Block last\nyear.\nIf he reads to the very end he will be\nsurprised by the collection of songs and yells\nwhich every UBC man supposedly knows.\nIf he would only take the trouble to learn\nor relearn these literary gems and render\nthem at the top of his voice when requested\nto do so at the next pep meet the resultant\nboost in university spirit would probably\ncause the Mamooks to drop dead of shock.\nBIG THREE\nOur university is now one of the top three\nof Canada. Considering the extreme youth\nof our institution this is something to be\nproud of. The time has arrived for the students to develop a college spirit that is\nsecond to none, even if we are separated\nfrom the two nearest universities by the\nRocky Mountains and the international border respectively. When in the enar future,\nwe meet them again on the playing fields\nand in the debating halls. We must have\ndeveloped a fighting spirit that will make\nour opponents feel they are meeting tough\ncompetition.\n* Freshmen always have this fighting spirit,\nbut how long it will last is determined by the\nexample set by the upperclassmen.\nIn All Seriousness\nby Denis Blunden\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 (NOTE: It\nIs a habit\nof some Ubyssy\nwriters to babble happily a-\nbout the new\nterm in this the\nfirst issue. As\nthis is the second year this\ncolumn has appeared under\nthe above\nname (it had two before) the\nwriter considers he has babbled\nhappily enough for two years, and\nexcuses himself. He takes the\nfist opportunity to be nasty, in\nthe hope that it is too early for\nthose who disagree to shoot at\nhim from behind the nearest\nbush.)\nFormer students may not realize\nit yet, and some may be loath to\nadmit it, but the University of\nBritish Columbia they knew in\nwar years died this summer and a\nnew one was born.\n\"BIG TIME\" ERA\nTo be frank, the university has\ngone \"big time.\" Whether students\nwill bow to this and follow the\ntrend, which new students will\ntake es the normal thing, will decide whether this session will be\norderly or hectic. Whether or not\nthe controlling Interests of UBC\nactivities in the past will be gracious enough to bow to the inevitable, or smart enough to climb on\nthe band wagors will oe the deciding factor in whetner student activities will, to put it crudely, go\n\"big time\" or still wallow in\nmedocrity.\nAnd before some well-meaning\nperson goes off half-cocked about\nthe large number of returned men\non the campus, and what changes\nthey might insist on, I want to put\nin my two-bits worth. Returned\nmen aren't going to cause any\ntrouble unless \u00C2\u00ABome pink-faced\ncomittee chairman picks a fight\nwith them. They're here to get an\neducation, which is more than\nsome students are. As far as I\ncan see, they don't want anybody\nwriting \"helpful hints to returned\nservicemen,\" unless, perhaps, it is\none of their number. Returned\nmen, I think want to Decome Just\nplain students as test as possible.\n\"HOODOOS\" TO VANISH\nThere is one aspect of the bulging registration that points to a\nfew changes. Sheer weight of\nnumbers is going to force a realignment of student politics. At\nUBC there are U parties ell with\nthe same platform. Nine parties\nare composed of men, nine of\nwomen. Those not in any party\nare unorganized as yet and probably never will be so nobody worries about them.\nA swelled registration will probably be a big monkey wrench In\npolitical \"machinery\" which worked so successfully In the past\ngrinding out assorted varieties of\nstudent officers.\nThere is, one caution for fraternities and sororities. They are\ngetting the acid test whether they\nwant it or not. With so many\npeople to choose from in rushing,\nthere is the danger of being fussy\nin picking the crowd over. If too\nmany hopefuls are left behind\neach year, and especially this\nyear, the non-greeks may grow\nand grow and grow until they not\nonly are In the majority, but are\norganized at well.\nBeing one of the great unwashed, I can be blunt about prospects\nfor UBC organizations. The bluntest way I can think to put it now\nis that the actions of established\ngroups this year will decide whether five years from now they will\nbe alive, and as usual, kicking, or\nwhether they will be as extinct as\nKing Arthur's round table. In\nother words, just a legend.\nOffices Brock Hall\nPhone ALma 1624\nFor Advertising\nCampus Subscriptions\u00E2\u0080\u0094$1.50\nMail Subscriptions\u00E2\u0080\u0094$2.00\nIssued every Tuesday, Thursday,\nand Saturday by the Students'\nPublication Board of the Alma\nMater Society of the University of\nBritish Columbia.\nEDITOR-IN-CHIEF\nMARION DUNDAS\nSenior Editors\nTuesday Editor ....

They are the citizens of\ntomorrow.\nFor another thing I am in favor\nof Mather getting some rant out\nof a spare bedroom. He is,a citizen of today.\nIn case you are thinking of\nboarding a student or two for the\nfirst time, let me give you the secret of success.\nThe main thing to do about university students is to make them\npart of the family.\nThey probably wont like being\npart of the family at first, but\nnever mind, they will get used to\nit. After all, neither they nor you\ncan live together and maintain\nthe formalities of strangers.\nHOME LIFE\nWhen the university girls got to\nour house they were feeling lonely\nlike. Strangers in our city, they\nmissed the old familiar ways of\nWest Summerland.\nI made them feel at home right\naway\u00E2\u0080\u0094I let them cut the hedge\nfor me.\nThat was the start of the \"all\npart of the family\" policy. We\nand the girls got on fine.\nIt was no time before they were\nhelping my wife do the dishes.\nIt was even less time b.n'ore they\nwere keeping me waiting to get\ninto the bathroom.\nI did things for our girls like\nhelping write an essay on \"My\nFirst Impressions of UJ9.C.\"\nThe fact that I have never attended U.B.C. gave me a freedom\nof style that gained me the bulk\nof a box of Macintosh Reds from\nthe Okanagan.\nLater we established a domestic\nmutual aid plan. My wife and I\nused to go out'on Saturday nights.\nThe girls and their boy friends\nused to look after our baby.\nAnother thing I liked with the\ngirls around, I got to read the\nUbyssey and all the new murder\nmysteries.\nWORK AND WAGES\nI am afraid I can't tail you much\nabout the extra work in boarding\nstudents. My wife only says darkly that it is not really much more\ntrouble to make dinner for five\nthan it is to make dinner for three.\nAlso I do not know very specifically how much money she made\nwith the lodgers.\nI defy even Ilsley to understand\nmy wife's bookkeeping\u00E2\u0080\u0094in fact\nshe does not really understand it\nherself. At a guess, I would say\nshe cleared about $35 a month.\nBut the point is that if you get\nalong with them there is much\nmore to boarding university students than cooking meals and collecting rents.\nI do not know what the girls\nthought about us, but after a\nwhile we really found it nice to\nhave them in the house.\nThey gave our place a certain\nsomething it didn't have before.\nMaybe It was a dash of adolescence.\nWhen our friends visited us and\nthe girls were around I used to be\nkind of proud to introduce them.\nI felt, somehow, that I had got\nto be a pretty solid sort of citizen\nwith two fiii'ls in the house going\nto university.\nIn case you do want a U.B.C.\nsluc!?nt yourself, you can probably get one by phoning AL 1191 and\nasking for Dean Mawd.'ilcy.\n The UBYSSEY, September 25, 1945, Page 4\nNew Professors, Courses for Arts Faculty Curtis Heads Complete\nUBC Law Faculty\nMISS D.

The\nonly thing stopping him was lack\nof accommodation for his pretty\nblond wife, Doris.\n\"Then early in the second week\nof September we met an airman\nwith a trailer, \"badgered\" it out\nof him for 11600 and decided to set\nout from Calgary for the University of British Columbia, bringing\nour housing accomodation with\nus,\" recalls Tommy.\nThe couple spent six days on\nthe road travelling through Oregon and Washington and rolled\nonto the university campus Monday, September 10. They wera\ngreeted with joy by university\nofficials harassed by the student\nhousing problem.\n\"ROOMY',* TOO\nTommy, who had formerly completed his first year of electrical\nengineering at the university, will\n\"have plenty of room to study\"\naccording to his wife, Doris, who\npoints with dilight to cupboard\nspace crammed in every conceivable corner of the trailer home.\n\"I can find more cupboard space\nIn our trailer than in the three-\nroom suite we had hi Calgary,\"\nshe explains proudly.\nThe trailer is modern In every\nspace-saving detail from miniature\nVenetian blinds to the compact\ntwo burner electric range with\noven, in the two-by-four kitchen.\nBLUE MONDAYS\nThe only things at present worrying the trailer couple is the\ntlaundry and hot water problam.\nMrs. Douglis, formerly a store\nnurse in Calgary doesn't think she\n\"will have room to hang out the\nMonday washing.\"\nHo is also secretly worried about\nhis wife's fondness for animals.\n\"She wants to buy a dog,\" he\nmourns,\nCOMPANY EXPECTED\nDoris hasn't yet ph'nned any\nelaborate in al.-i with covers laid\nfor eight, but t'links that six people could bo lilted in for a dinn.T\nvery easily at their small collaps\nible table attached to the trailer\nwall.\nShe is at present content in\nmanufacturing meals for two in\nthe small kitchenette. Even her\ncook book is .pocket size and fits\nneatly into a magazine rack built\nhigh up on a wall.\n\"So far we're happy about\neverything except your weather,\nwhich happens along in big wet\nblobs when I was trying to clean\nour oil heater outside one day,\"\nsays Tommy.\nAnd do the Dougiase3 want a\nten-room house? Absolutely not.\n\"They'd get lost.\"\nFrat Tables to Go\nIn Rush Hours, Caf\nCzar Dictates Here\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 SOME 300 UBC students who\nwill have to be fed three meals\na day by the university dining\nhalls will add a major problem to\nthe already overtaxed facilities,\nacording to Frank Underbill, manager of the cafeteria.\nWhen the present expansion\nprogram is finished sometime In\nthe next few weeks, the university\nwill have the cafeteria in the\nAuditorium building, anack bars\nin the bus stop, Brock Hall, in the\nblock of lecture rooms and offices\nbehind the Auditorium building,\nand the Brock Dining room.\nThe completed program will\nprovide feeding facilities for approximately 635 students at one\ntime.

However,\nspecial noon-hour meals at low\nprices will still be s?rv.?cl.\n\"In view of the overcrowding,\"\nMr. Underbill .said, \"I would like\nto ask the students to eo-opcrate\n\"iid return th.ir dishes to the\ncounters.\"\nreturning\nfreshmen\nwill go into this branch.

Bob Osborne, who has\nbeen prominant at Varsity in the past few years in the\nCOTC, has already started work to build up a program that\nwill restore sports to its normal peace-time standards.\nAlthough UBC was fortunate in\ngetting one of the best organizers\nof sports to take over the position,\nsportsmen will miss Maury Van\nVliet who has been with Varsity\nnow for 9 years and has made\nmany a friend in that time.\nFamed for his coaching of basketball and his general ability as\nan organizer, Maury received an\ninvitation to go to the University\nof Alberta at Edmonton as Professor and Director of Physical Education for Men.\nBob Osborne steps into the picture just as the Blue and Gold\nbegins to organize for greater\nsports activities in years to come.\nWell known by many fellows\nafter teaching at Templeton and\nLord Byng, Bob is probably best\nknown for his hoopla activities.\nHe played on the UBC team when\nthey won the championship In\n1930-31 and for the next three years\nwas captain of the team. He later\nplayed for the Province team and\none year went with three players\nfrom Victoria to bolster Windsor,\nwho were representing Canada in\nthe Olympics. The team came\nsecond only to the States. After\nthat he played for Tookes.\nBob has many great hopes for\nVarsity's life of sport this year.\nAlong the lines of extramurals,\nplans are being made to draw up\na Canadian or American football\nschedule against some of the\nsmaller American colleges along\nthe coast. It is also hoped that\nthe Colleges in Western Canadi\nwill once again do battle for the\nHardy Cup.\nEnglish Rugger games will probably be carried on much as they\nwere last year with a small circuit\noperating in the city.\nAs for basketball, it Is hoped\nthat the 'Birds whom Bob will be\ncoaching this year will have games\nwith some of the American colleges\nin preparation for a big casaba\nschedule next fall.\nIt is believed at present that\nsome changes will have to be\nmade in the intramural setup that\nwas in use last year. So far, no\ndefinite plans have been made. It\nis felt however that the system\npreviously used would not\" be adequate for the enlarged enrollment\nat Varsity this year.\nOne of Bob's chief hopes is that\nthose men who are returning from\nthe armed forces will take part in\nthe sports activities at UBC. This\nis to be one of the chief factors\nin his revision of the intramural\nsetup.\nAs his assistant in planning the\nyear's work, Bob will nave with\nhim Doug Whittle, a graduate in\nPhysical Education from the University of Toronto. Doug has had\nquite a bit to do with the work\nof the Y.M.C.A in the last few\nyears.\nAll of which adds up to a great\nyear in the world of sports for\nUBC's men. This year will in all\nprobability be preparing for bigger and better things in the years\nto come but with Bob Osborne\nbehind it, all should go better than\nwell.\nROSE LAWN\nLTD,\nGreta Rayner\nWEDDING\nBOUQUETS and\nFLOWERS\nfor\nALL OCCASIONS\n724 Granville\nStreet\nMArine\n1036\nMULTIGRAPH SALES AGENCY\n(W.

Returning to the campus this year will be many\nmen that have worn the Blue and Gold in previous years\nOnce again hoopla fans will\nwatch Gordy Sykes working the\npivot spot on the maple courts,\nand hear the madman Harry\nFranklin argue that he was \"no\nwhere near the character\u00E2\u0080\u0094how\ncould he possibly foul him.\"\nAlso swishing the net will be\nHarry Kermode who played for\nLauries in the Canadian finals last\nyear, and Hunk Henderson, crafty\ncentre-man, who is returning after some time as a P.O.W.

Perhaps it was because you have a\nlittle printer's ,uik in your blood\nand didn't know it!\nAll of which is leading up to\nthe fact that we need new blood\nin the Pub again this year. For\nthose who have not as yet been\ninitiated to the local \"den of Iniquity,\" the Pub is formally referred to as the Publications Board.\nOf course, there are many nice\nthings about becoming a sports\nreporter. Ton will undoubtedly go\nfor the idea of having a free bottle\nof coke beside yon to help you\nwhile you write the odd story.\nWhat's more, wouldn't you like to\nhave some place where you can\nknock around with a bunch of\ncharacters in your spare time. Do\nyou go for the idea of parties\nwhere the fun flows like wine?\nThey even have women there tool!\nAs anyone can obviously see,\nthis business of being a scribe\nfor the local rag is indeed a good\nracket to be in on. Of course it\nhelps if you know how to write\na little and are also interested in\nsports.\nAnd just a note to tne girls.\n(It's okay for the boys to read\nthis if they want to!) This year\nshould be a great year far girls'\nsports on the campus and therefore we are going to need help\nfrom the girls to cover their activities. How's about dropping in for\na few minutes to let us know that\nyou will be able to help us and\ngirls' sports on the whole by giving them a little publicity.\nSo, all you guys and gals, we\nsuggest that you toddle down here\nto the \"depths of the old Brock\nHall\" even if you didn't get in on\nthe informal meeting held Monday. We particularly want all\nthose sports editors of high school\nsheets that were in action last\nyear.\nJust drop in and let us know\nwho you are. Everyone is welcome.\nII-'\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 can- em\nBy LAUrUE DYER\nWE'VE HAD IT\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 ' TWAS AN HOUR before deadline and all through the\nPub, everyone was raving, that is just about everyone.\nThere was one voice that was missing. Where was Luke?\nWhile the rest of us slave at our dear old Pub, Lucifer Q.\nMoyls reclines in luxury \"somewhere in the States.\" He\nclaims to be working but how anyone could call a two-week\ntrip down to Los Angeles, Hollywood, etc. work is more than\nwe can figure out.\nSo Luke is having a holiday ... so we are having a heck\nof a day! We must return to the grind with smiling faces\nwhile Luke sneers at us from his most honourable seat of\nhonour. Our holidays are over. Oh alas and alack!! I\nwonder if he'll say hello to the President for me. Oh well,\nwe can laugh when he has to get back on the job.\nKlahowya Friends\nWe throw out the Welcome mat to a new staff in the gym\nthis year. Mrs. J. Sleightholme is taking over the girls'\nactivities and Bob Osborne will be working with the boys.\nThey have with them two new associates also. Miss L Clay\nwho graduated from McGill last year will help Mrs. Sleightholme and Doug Whittle from the east will be in on the\norganization of the men's sports.\nTheir job is not an easy one either. The enlarged enrollment presents a problem in itself. It is the object of the\nsports department to let as many people as possible take part\nin athletic recreation in the gym and in the stadium.\nThis means enlarging the intramural setup so that more\npeople can be included in the activities. For those who are\nnew to UBC, we would explain that the intramural schedule\nis for the use of those who are interested in sport but either\nbecause of the lack of time or ability, are not able to make\nthe teams that represent the Blue and Gold in the sports\nworld.\nIntramurals For All\nIt was formerly organized into teams from Fraternities\nand other teams made up from the Frosh class as well as any\nother organized group that wished to enter a team for the\nschedule.\nThe Frosh were formed for the most part from the high\nschools that they last attended. Last year, the Mu Phis made\nup of ex-Mageeites, took the honours from the other fifteen\nteams entered. However, it is felt that in some cases this\ngrouping of the freshman into high school teams, although an\neasy method of organizing, tends to cement high school\nrelations.\nThis is one thing that we must try to forget at Varsity.\nWe DO want to remember that we go to UBC and that is\nthe important thing. Certainly, we were all proud of our\nhigh schools but now that we are at Varsity, we think of\nVarsity as our alma mammy.\nIt's Gonna Be A Great Year\nBob has not forgotten extramurals by any means. Although\nthis year is in all probability just a stepping stone to better\nyears to come, it should be a big year in hoopla and football.\nMrs. Sleightholme has taken it upon herself to introduce a\nlittle more extramural work to build up the interest that has\nbeen sadly lacking in girls' athletics during the past few\nyears. Yes girls, you've got to admit it!! Maybe the freshettes and those of the upper years will take this as a challenge\nand do something about it.\nExperienced Competitive Skiers and\nSki Instructors To Serve YOU\n\"TWO SKIERS\"\nSPORTING GOODS\nGUS JOHNSON, Proprietor\nFormerly Chief Instructor,\nWestern Canada Sid School, C.AS.C.\nMArine 6051 511 Howe Street\nDueck Chevrolet Olsmobile Ltd.\nGeneral Motors\nWholesale Parts Distributors\nFor\nChevrolet \u00E2\u0080\u0094 Oldsmobile \u00E2\u0080\u0094 Buick \u00E2\u0080\u0094 Pontiac\nPassenger Cars\nand\nChevrolet \u00E2\u0080\u0094 Maple Leaf \u00E2\u0080\u0094 GMC Trucks\nUSED CARS\nCOLLISION REPAB1S\nTIRES\nCARS FOR BJRE\nCOMPLETE\nLUBRICATION\nSERVICE\nBUDGET SERVICE\nEverything for Your Car\n1305 W.

In fact,\na great many new things have\nbeen adden, but In this case, Mrs.\nJ.

Sh* auo has planned\nto give the co-eds training in\nmodern dancing which is very\npopular amongst the girls.\nNew year will be the introduction of co-educational classes in\ndancing. This will include ballroom and some square dancing.\nFor a limited number there will\nbe a period of tumbling and apparatus with the possibility of\nentering the team into competitions.\nExtramural activities will include hockey and basketball as\nlast year and it is hoped that there\nwill be archery and swimming\ncompetition for those interested.\nIn order that students can have\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0 little more idea of how to plan\ntheir courses, there has been a\nchange made in the program used\nlast year. On Wednesda/ and Friday of each week, girls will have\ntheir periods in the afternoon and\nthe boys will have the morning.\nNOTICE\nFirst Senior A basketball practice of the year will be held on\nTuesday, tonight, at 4:30 in the\ngym.
