" HOMECOMING CELEBRATIONS NEXT SATURDAY\nPublished Twice Weekly by the Publications Board of the University of British Columbia\nVol. XIV\nVANCOUVER, B. C, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1936\nNo. 11\nCONGREGATION\nSPEAKER FLAYS\nINDIVIDUALISM\nMany Degrees Are\nConferred On\nWednesday\n\"The life of the next generation will be exciting and\ninteresting. I hope that you\nwill meet that next generation and its problems with\nyour mind open, and your\nheart alive.\"\nSIXTY DIGRESS\n8uch was the tenor of Dr. Sedge-\nwick's address to the graduating\nclass last Wednesday afternoon, as\nsome 60 degrees were conferred at\nthe Tenth Annual Congregation.\nWith all the accustomed color\nand dignity of tradition, tho Congregation was formally opened by\nChancellor MeKoohnlo. In his\nbrief prefatory remarks, ho had\nwords of praise for tho achievements of tho class, and at tho\nsame time an exhortation to thorn\nto support tho University and\nwhat It roprosontod wherovor\nthoy might bo placed In life.\nHe was followed by Or. L. S.\nKlinck, president of the University,\nwho briefly introduced the speaker\nof the afternoon, commenting on\nthe honor conferred on the University by the appearance ot one ot\nthe professorial staff to give the\nformal address for the occasion.\nMOTIVE OF SERVICE\nDr. Sedgewick's speech was essentially an appeal to the graduates\nto bring to society not only their\nlearning, but also that Interest for\nthe common welfare of their fellow-\nmen which alone would fully develop their characters. Taking his\ntext from an oration of Donne's\nin 1626, he stressed the futility of\nmere learning without philanthropic motives ot service behind It.\n\"You are gifted with greater\nunderstanding than the majority\nof your follows ara,\" ho deolared .\n\"You should understand tho world\nyou live In bettor than ordinary\nmen. You should bo able to see\nless dimly than your follows tho\npossibilities of tho future. You\nshould havo a more balanced\njudgment than tho mon around\nyou. If this Is not true, then you\ncan contribute littlo to tho soeloty\nyou aro entering.\"\nNOT IDEALISM\nDonne, he said, felt that only the\n\"public heart\" could save a person\nfrom the narrow restrictions of individualism. \"Understanding needs\nyet the touch of emotion to make\nit operative and beneflclent. The\nfull thing comes only when the\nlarge comprehension has behind it\nthe force of will to put It to public\nuse.\n\"You must bring to your society\nnot only the knowledge you have\ngot, but the desire to make it effective. This is no inflated Idealism: for there Is no great end to\nbe attained except by devotion to\nsomething outside one's self \u00E2\u0080\u0094\nsomething larger and nobler than\nwe are.\"\nDrawing to his conclusion, the\nspeaker lamented the training given University men on this continent. \"The defect of American colleges,' he charged, \"has been that\nthey have turned out men impressed in blood and brain with the\ndoctrine of individualism. And individualism spells the death of the\npublic heart.\"\nHe struck a pessimistic note as\nhe cited the failures of University graduates to take an interest\nin and to serve the public.\n\"The bulk of University men are\n(us selfishly Individualistic as the\ngreat bulk of their fellows. To\nwhich class will you belong\u00E2\u0080\u0094to the\nhulk, or to the few exceptions, the\ntew who hav acquired this passion\nfor the public service? What attitude will you take,\" he challenged\nliis audience, \"in the corning conflict between individualism and the\n.treat Ideal of the 'public heart'?\"\nFollowing the address, the graduating class were admitted to the\nUniversity nnd granted their degrees in the traditional manner.\n.Sonic 400 people were present at\nthe ceremony.\nSaskatchewan Boys\nSteal Too Many\nSigns Say Officials\nSign-stealing Is to bo abolished\nat tho University of Saskatchewan under tho pressure ot tho S.\nR. C. and tho University officials.\nSo advanced had tho practice become that letters and warning\nhavo boon reeolvod from downtown firms by tho University -officials. \"It Is unfortunate,\" said\nMarvin Carson, President of tho\nS. R. C, \"that what Is probably\neonsldorod as a childish or playful prank may quite possibly bo\nmade tho basis of a criminal action, and for this reason tho Students' Counell fools it their duty\nto warn students of tho serious\npossibilities of their action.\"\nWithout waiting for aetlon to\nbo taken by University officials\nor down-town firms, tho S. R. C.\nIntimates that thoy might take aetlon against offenders, sitting as\na Students' Court under tho constitution.\nVocational Talk\nOutlines Field Of\nSalesmanship\nCapt. F. N. Hann Opens\nSeries of Noon\nAddresses\n\"There is no such thing as\na born salesman,' Capt. F. M.\nHann informed students Wednesday noon at the first Vocational Guidance lecture of\nthe season.\nBE8T ARE QUIET\nDealing in his talk on the \"Science of Salesmanship,\" with qualities essential to succesful salesmanship, Capt. Hann said that salesmen born with any necessary qualities too often develop a repellent\noverbearing attitude.\n\"The best salesmen I have ever\nmet,\" he stated, \"*rt quite ordinary people of quiet, dignified bearing and a few well chosen words.\"\nEmphasizing the point that everybody is a salesman whether it is\nonly himself or his services he is\nselling, the speaker stated that the\npower of selling comes only from\nthe study of modern salesmanship,\nthe development of character and\nthe cultivation of the mind so as\nto be able to influence the client's\ndecision either by suggestion or\nauto-suggestion.\nCHARACTER IMPORTANT\n\"The most Important factor in\nsuccessful Belling, however, is character,\" Capt. Hann told his audience, \"and the most Important factors in the development of character are earnestness, cheerfulness,\nself-respect, courtesy, faith and\nhope.\n\"Earnestness is a very dynamic force. It radiates In every\ndirection and sets up vibrations\naffecting both the customer and\nyourself. Earnestness gives you\nadditional power of reasoning and\nfills your mind with forceful arguments.\n\"Cheerfulness is a very important element. As an employer. I tell\nyou that cheerfulness is the best investment of your energy you could\nmake. People hate gloom and oppression, even those who manifest\nit themselves.\"\nAnother suggestion on how to\nbecome successful was the cultivation of the voice at an easy, natural pitch, never raising the voice\nin excitement or irritation which\ncauses the customer to become excited and irritated.\nCLEAN AND NEAT\nThe salesman must look clean\nand neat, and must also appear\nsuccessful, If he wishes to be a success. Capt. Hann In conclusion\nwarned the students to beware of\nconnecting themselves with firms\nof doubtful reputation, even though\nthe salary may be higher.\n\"When you get out as a salesman,\nInvestigate the firm just as carefully as they will investigate you.\nBe very careful,\u00E2\u0080\u0094a wrong decision\nmay ruin your entire future career. Pick out a good firm and stay\nwith it.\"\n\"MANITOBAN\"\nHAS TROUBLE\nWITH LABOR\nPart of Staff Walks\nOut In Protest\nOver Printers\nUNIVERSITY OF MANITOBA, Winnipeg, Oct. 28. \u00E2\u0080\u0094\nBreaking into the Manitoban\noffice at the Broadway Building of the University of Manitoba while the rush to meet\nthe deadline was at its height,\nWednesday evening, a group\nof United College students\ndemanded that the staff of the\npaper stage a \"walk-out\" and\ncease publication until such\ntime as the University of\nManitoba Students Union\nCouncil awarded the Manitoban printing contract to a\nfirm employing union labor.\nLEAVE THEIR DESKS\nThree members of the^staff, Ed.\nParker, W. Saxton and Morton\nParker signed a petition presented\nby Ken Mackenzie, the leader of\nthe strikers, and left their desks.\nJack Martin, Jacob Cohen and Gor\ndon Savage, also joined the strlk\ners but refused to sign the petition,\nCharles MacKensle, the Managing Editor; Tom Smith and Reg.\nBundy refused to Join the strikers\nand remained at their posts. They\ndeolared that they havo supported the views of the strikers to a\ncertain extent but they were not\nin sympathy with their methods.\nThese three and the Editor In\nChief, Darcy Dolan, finished getting the paper out.\nWhen questioned by Ken Mac-\nKenzle, the leader of the agitators,\nDarcy Dolan, the Editor-in-chief of\nthe Manitoban, declared that he\nhad brought the matter before the\nCouncil of the University of Manitoba Students Union Council on\ntwo occasions. A commission had\nbeen struck off to investigate the\nmatter and the Council had signified s Its satisfaction with the report presented by the commission.\nCHARGES DENIED\nAll the charges laid by the strikers were officially denied by the\nDahl Company Ltd., printers, who\nhave been printing the Manitoban,\nin a sworn statement dated October 23rd, 1936.\nStrike leaders have been investigating conditions In the Dahl\nplant and still Insist that decent\nliving wages are not being paid.\nThey are being assisted by the\nWinnipeg Printers' Union. Their\nslogon Is \"A union stamp on the\nManitoban.\"\nA special commission under the\nchairmanship of John Robinson,\npresident of the University of Manitoba Students Union, is Investigating the charges laid by the strikers\nand a report of the commission's\nfindings will be presented at the\nnext Council meeting.\nMeanwhile a temporary agreement has been reached between the\nstrikers and the Editor-in-chief, W.\nDarcy Dolan.\nRugby Game And Tea Dance To\nFeature Homecoming Nov. 7\nALUMNI TO HOLD\nANNUAL MEET\nMONDAY\nAs a sort of reaction to the\nfrivolous and boisterous celebrations of younger students\nthis fall, the grave old alumni\nwill hold their annual meetitfg\non Monday, Nov. 2, at 6.46\np.m. in the form of a dinner\nin Spencer's Dining Room,\nthe cost of which will be 60\ncents.\nEJECTION OP EXECUTIVE\nThe speaker will be Prof. H. F.\nAngus, who will speak on the subject of his recent trip to Europe.\nAnother feature of the meeting\nwill be the election of executive.\nThe present executive is J. N. Burnett, president; Dorothy MacRae,\nvice-president; Milton Owen, secretary.\nHomecoming Day is slated for\nSaturday, November 7th. The program includes a rugby game in the\nUniversity Stadium and a Tea\nDance, in the Gymnasium.\nAnnual fees are now payable to\nthe treasurer. They may be paid at\nthe meeting or sent to the Treasurer, Alumni Association, The University of British Columbia.\nAUDREY HORWOOD\nPrairie-Varsity\nGames Mooted\nRugby Union Approval\nNeeded for Combination\nMatch\nThis year the Homecoming Saturday afternoon of November 7 will\ncater to both those who would rather die for old England than Bee a\ngame of Canadian football, and for\nthose who would rather wear a\nmonocle than see a game of English rugby. Homecoming will do\nthis by having a game of each, on\nthe same field, for the same admission price, on the same afternoon.\nVarsity and Occasionals will play\nrugby, and Varsity and either Alberta or Saskatchewan will play\nFootball.\nThe only thing that has to go\nStage Is Set For\nSpecial Meet\nPass System Will Face\nTest Next Wednesday\nThe Pass System proposal was\ngiven a final once-over by Council\nlast Monday evening, and is ready\nfor presentation to the student\nbody at the Alma Mater meeting\nnext Wednesday.\nCopies of the schedule that appeared in a recent Ubyssey have\nbeen made and will be in the hands\nof all attending the meeting. In\nthis way, any student wishing to\nspeak on the question will have at\nhis fingertips the necessary and\naccurate information.\nOTHER MEETINGS OFF\nDuring the month since the last\nmeeting campus organizations have\ndiscussed the Pass System and several of these will attend the Alma\nMater meeting in a body to express\ntheir opinions.\nThe whole matter will hinge upon\nthe acceptance by the student body\nof an additional $3 levy on A. M. S.\nfees to cover the expense of the\npass, the latter being worth about\n$6.25.\nAll noon-hour meetings have been\ncancelled for Wednesday in order\nthat every student may be at the\nmain meeting.\nAudrey Horwood, W.U.S. president, who.is looking after arrangements for the Alumni Day\ntea dance in the gym next Saturday after the Varsity-Occa-\nsionals game.\nwell lest there be no double-header\nis the approval of the Rugby Union.\nThe consent of this body must be\nobtained before these two games\ncan be played at the University\nstadium on the afternoon of November 7.\nWith the approval of the Union,\nVarsity will negotiate with the\nAlta.-Sask. teams to arrange a one-\ngame sudden-death match.\nThe only other difficulty in sight\nat the moment is the fact that the\nteams out here play Big Four\nRules an dthe teams of Saskatchewan and Alberta play Western\nCanadian rules. There are differences in regard to interference and\npassing and the teams may have\ntrouble when they meet. However,\nthese variations can be smoothed\nout in a practice or two so the game\nought to be worth seeing, as it will\nbe the first Inter-Collegiate Canadian Football that has been played\nhere for some time.\nSask. Governors\nGrant $10,000\nTo Stadium\nWill Have Complete\nBuilding by\n1938\nUNVERSITY OF SASKATCHEWAN\u00E2\u0080\u0094(WIPU) \u00E2\u0080\u0094 October 28. \u00E2\u0080\u0094 The completion of\nthe University of Saskatchewan Stadium by the fall of\n1938 is now a certainty, due\nto the decision of the Board\nof Governors to grant $10,-\n000 for the project. This sum\nis to be divided, so that part\ngoes to the University farm\nemployees owning the teams\nand implements used, and\nthe other part to be credited\nto the arrears in fees of those\nstudents who work on the\nconstruction.\nSince the eost of building three\nsections this year was found to\nbe only S10.500, the total estimated eost of the completed\nStadium was reduced SB,000. Next\nyear the 8tadlum will be able to\nbegin work with practically no\ndebt aa all but S100 of the cost\nhad been raised.\nGROUNDS IMPROVED\nA first class track along with\nadditions for the stands are to be\nthe next improvements, The Intre-\ncollegiate Track Meet will be held\nhere next year and it is the aim\nof the Association to provide excellent accommodation. The grounds\nwill be landscaped and a hedge\nplaced around the fence.\nThe students were asked to\nraise $2,000 and have so far contributed $800. It is expected that\nthe other $1,200 will be collected\nwithin the next two years. Other\nsources of assistance are the faculty, 3,000 grads, and interested\nbusiness firms.\nSTOP PRESS\nWord has just been received\nthat the offer of U.B.C. to play\nthe winner of the Saturday Saskatchewan-Alberta grid game, in\na sudden-death encounter here on\nNovember 7, has been accepted.\nFULL PROGRAM IS\nPLANNED FOR\nNOV. 7\nAlumni and undergraduate\nofficials are sending out to all\ngrads within easy distance of\nVancouver, an invitation to\nreturn to the Campus November 7 for Homecoming\nDay.\nGYM TEA DANCE\nIn the afternoon, the traditional English Rugby game\nbetween Varsity and Occasionals will be played in the\nU. B. C. Stadium. The students have what sports writers\nare calling a \"wonder team\"\nthis year, and the game promises to be exciting and interesting.\nFollowing the match a tea\ndance will be held in the gym,\nunder the auspices of the Women's Undergraduate Society.\nAudrey Horwood and Peggy\nFox are arranging the affair,\nand have secured the services\nof Lloyd Detwiller and his\ncampus musicians. Tea will\nbe 35 cents.\nEVERY MEMBER\nNo evening program has\nbeen planned, but it is hoped\nthat grads will be able to get\ntogether in parties that night\nand re-live the old Saturday\nnights that they used to have\nat varsity.\nEvery members of the Alumni who can possibly attend the affairs on November\n7 is invited to come, states\nHowie McPhee, who is in\ncharge of the preparations.\nThe 500 grads who get copies\nof this special edition of the\nUbyssey are asked to inform\nothers of the event and bring\nalong all of the old crowd.\nPhysics Professor\nFinds He Can't Fool\nFreshmen on Coins\nBy BILL KNOX\nIt would appear that Phineas Q.\nFrosh is not so gullible as he was\nlast week. He has come through\nanother scrape with Prof. Shrum,\nand has emerged victorious and\nunscathed*\nThe attack took place ln the\nPhysics lecture laat Thursday,\nwhen Dr. Shrum was demonstrating the Penny-and-Feather Tube.\nThe worthy prof, went over the top\nwith the remark, \"Here's something that will interest some of you\ngamblers. You wijl notice'that the\npenny always lights with the head\nup. This is peculiar to coins in a\nvacuum.\nFollowed a silence, deeply\nfraught with the electric tension of\ncogitation. It was, undoubtedly, a\nsurprise attack. Phineas Q. had\nbeen stung badly in former attacks,\nretreating with heavy Injuries to\nhis freshman pride.\nOnce stung never stiing again,\nso they say, and therefore it was\nnatural that Phineas suddenly uttered a gurgling cough, raised baleful eyes to his opponent, and fixed\nhim with a reproachful stare ....\n\"The penny has heads on both\nsides,\" he rasped.\nA grin spread over Professor\nShrum's Face, Phineas was right!

In most of the older American\nand Canadian universities this day is the biggest event of\nthe fall term. Old grads come from near and far, some\neven making long train journeys to attend, while the university students make a point of turning out in full force\nto welcome them. We, being a young university, have not\nas yet the true Alumni Day spirit. However it is never too\nlate to start.\n, This year the executive in charge of arrangements has\nplanned an exciting Occasional vs. Varsity game on our own\nstadium, followed by a tea dance in the gymnasium. Both\nthese athletic facilities have been built by the money and\neffort supplied by students, the majority of whom have now\ngraduated. Alumni Day will be a chance for the graduates\nto make use of their own gymnasium and stadium.\nIt is also a chance for the University students to turn\nout and show the alumni that we appreciate the efforts they\nmade to give us a better equipped university.\nWELL DONE, 39!\nArts '39 staged an unusually successful party Wednesday evening, despite the cloudy outlook that seemed to be\npresent earlier in the week. During the course of the dance,\nthe Ubyssey was the recipient of several sarcastic remarks\nthat referred to our Tuesday editorial calling down the class.\nBut the party came off, and everybody who attended seemed\nto be enjoying themselves. If our editorial helped to make\nthe affair a success, we don't mind the sarcasm. It would\nbe much better in the future, however, if such editorials had\nno cause to be written.\nBICYCLES\nAfter evading the frantically and misdirectedly petitioned vigilance of the Vancouver City Police as far as the\nUniversity Oates the car-driving student is apt to relax and\nspeed up along the tempting University Boulevard. But\nhidden perils await him.\nIf he is an upper classman he knows this and allows for\nit; if he is a freshman, a sophomore, or a Scienceman, he is\nignorant and is caught. The drive is not so free of anguish\nas the straight pavement and lack of intersections lead them\nto believe.\nThe most pernicious of the menaces is the bicycle. The\nfollowing is a generalization of a happening continually recurring in the stretch between the gates and the Mall: Car\n\"A\" coming up behind and slightly to the left of Car \"B\"\nin order to pass Car \"B\" has a small blind spot ahead of\nCar \"B\" where bicycle, \"X\", loves to lurk. Car \"A\" comes\nup beside Car \"B\", Car \"B\" turns out to pass bicycle \"X\"\nand the result is alphabet soup.\nA simple remedy for this would be to require all bicycles\nand motorcycles to ride on the left side ot the right side of\nthe Boulevard, or to make things clearer, on the left side of\nthe separate pavement supplied for traffic travelling in the\nsame direction as the two-wheeler. In this way, the driver\nof Car \"A\" could see clearly any bicycle ahead, and the\ndanger would be averted.\nJ-L J-et\ncut\nSeniors, elusive little trifles flitting about like the marsh-lights\nthey are, have injected a certain\namount of hysteria into Aber studios, which have completed graduating pictures but (or the following.\nDue to mislaid phone numbers or\ndifficulty of communication, these\npeople haven't yet had their class\npictures done:\nJoan Moore Adams, John Cade,\nMargaret Biggs, Raymond Bell,\nJohn Benton, Gerald Bolajol, Ralph\nTyner, KATHERINE SCOTT, Ros-\ncoe Williams, William Smith. John\nSowerby, Clarence Swift, Sidney\nTeal, Jack Harvey, Margaret Langley, Jack Harris, James Hartley,\nJohn Henniker, Harold Knight,\nJohn Light, Robert McKenzie, Per-\ncival Mallett, William Mouat,\nOeorge Nicholson, Max Maynard,\nWarrena Oliver, Daniel Quayle, Patrick MacMillan, Laurence Machin,\nThomas Moore, Robert Peebles,\nRobinson Porter, William Prentice,\nAnna Clark, Edgar Oourlay, JOHN\nGROVES GOULD, Louise Green\nwood, Mary Gurney, Norman Dun-\nlop, Oscar Fulton, Leslie Gould,\nJohn Charlton, Stanley Copp, William Veitch.\nAll the above are asked to make\nappointments for pictures as quickly as possible. Aber will not be on\nthe campus again until Monday;\npictures can be taken here next\nweek or at his studio before then.\n\"GRADUATE JEWELLERS WITH UNDERGRADUATE IDEAS\"\nFIRBANK \u00C2\u00AB LANK\nSeymour at\nDunsmuir\nSEY. 2088\nCONVENIENT DIVIDED PAYMENTS\nIT is forecast by the writer of\nS.M.U.S. that the graduating\nclass ln Science Is going to make\na special valedictory gift of a neon\nScience crest. The writer goes even\nfurther to remark that such a gift\nwould be an excellent Idea.\nNever has a more idiotic, foolish\nand useless Idea been born. The\nneon crest, which would be used to\nadorn the ballroom at the annual\nScience binge, would no more deserve to be given as a valedictory\ngift than would a set of classics to\nthe students of that faculty. It is\nthe custom, in most universities,\nand has been here, for the graduating classes to leave behind a momenta of their years at the university. Such a gift is supposed to\ntake the shape of something useful\nto the university.\nIt is the policy of Students' Council that the Union Building Fund be\nmade the recipient ot all beneficent\ndonations this year. While it may\nseem presumptious to suggest to\nthe graduating Sciencemen what\nthey should give to the university,\nit is only reasonable to expect them\nto help on the growth of an idea\nthat had Its birth in their faculty,\nthe idea of a student building that\nwould stand as memory to the late\nDean and Mrs. R. W. Brock.\nThere is little doubt that the\nUnion Building will be built within\na year, at least part of It. As long\nas that possibility exists, Science-\nmen should work towards equipping\nand making that building a social\ncenter for the campus.\nYOU may remark that the neon\ncrest idea was to be ln the nature\nof a special gift, and that the Science grads would, as is usual, cooperate with the Artt In the valedictory gift. But It can't be denied\nthat the main fund would suffer if\nthe Science allegiance were split.\nAfter four years at this university, deriving the benefits therefrom, the only thought that the so-\ncalled men of Science have for the\ninstitution Is to leave behind them\na gaudy and useless neon crest. So\ntypical of the Science mind.\nTHERE Is a great sorrow on the\ncampus and students are hinging\ntheir heads ln sadness; for the\nVinery, place of Joys and noon-hour\nInterludes, is to be no more. Truly,\nall should weep. No longer will\nthe strains of modern melodies\nplay as students, free for a brief\nhour or so, dance in the cosy rooms\nor sip coffee ln the sheltered arbors. Jubilee Park will close up\nMonday. Seriously, Its a darn\nshame.\nSAW QERRY\nAn Alberta student attending\nWashington this summer had the\nprivilege of seeing Gerry \"our own\"\nMcGeer plus a detachment ot R.C.\nM.P. and the Seaforth Highlanders\npass in review at the Stadium there\non July 4 and tells his pals at home\nthat the matchless marching ot the\nR.C.M.P. on foot and the wild skirling of the bagpipes and the swing\nof the kilts mad ea thrilling picture.\nHe reports having heard an envious\nco-ed murmur, \"and they always\nget their man.\" Another outstanding feature of the celebration was\nthe evidence of the sincere friendship existing between the Canadians and th people to the south.\nMaybe this boy doesn't know\nGerry!\nLend Me Your Ears\nBy BOB BOUCHETTE\nTOTEM WAIVER\nSTUBS!\nDetaohed, they are useless; collected, they render the waiver that\ngoes with thsm valid.

You are in danger. Your rights are being invaded.\nIf you do not protest, your most\nsacred privileges will be abrogated.\nTime was when a stomach was\na self-determining organism. A\nstomach either accepted what it\nwould, or refused it.\nIt had a choice.\nIt was able to say:\n\"This food I do not choose to\ntake.\"\nOr it could announce:\n\"This food I relish.\"\nIt now appears that even our\nstomachs are to be regimented and\nwhipped into line.\n* * \u00C2\u00BB\nOf course, the campaign against\nthe freedom of stomachs to express\ntheir own desires is subtle\u00E2\u0080\u0094like all\ncampaigns which have as their end\nthe limitation of individual liberty.\nThe protagonists of the new\nthought, like wolves in sheeps'\nclothing, will approach you with a\nfriendly smile upon their lips, and\na gleam of companionship in their\neyes.\nThey may make you believe, if\nyou are gullible, that they are\nthinking about you.\nThey may delude you into the\nidea that they have your interest\nat heart.\nBut do not be deceived. Behind\ntheir chipper exterior is a fell plot,\na stratagem designed to remove\nfrom the stomachs of the nation\ntheir ability to know when and how\nand where they shall be fed.\nI have evidence on this matter\nand I shall reveal it.\nI shall expose this scheme to subvert all our most sacred gastronomic principles.\nI get up so early in the morning\nthat I seldom desire food immediately upon arising,\nI don't mind a nice, fresh dish\nof prunes\u00E2\u0080\u0094steamed, mind you, but\nnot boiled\u00E2\u0080\u0094but the idea of consuming any real fodder like bacon and\neggs, for example, would simply\ncause my stomach to rise up in its\nwrath and smite me in the middle\nof the neck.\nSome two hours later my turn-\nturn is telling me that it does not\nparticularly like the adherence to\nmy back.\nAt times I obey this call of the\nuntutored insides. More often I\ndo not, because by then it is time\nto be about the concerns of the day.\nI say: \"Begone, stomach; I shall\nattend to you later.\"\nAnd it may so happen that\naround the time of noon when most\nof the citizenry are having their\nlunch, their midday meal, I still\nhave not the time, nor by this pass,\nthe desire, to feed myself.\nAround 3 o'clock, though, the\npangs have made themselves so insistent that they cannot be any\nlonger denied.\nI hie me to a restaurant and eat.\nRoseate, replete with food, confident that I can brook the next few\nhours, I approach the holy of holies,\npass the time of day with the man\nbehind the counter.\nWhat does he say to me?\nDoes he say that you are looking\nwell today and I hope you enjoyed\nyour meal?\nDoes he say that we have good\nfood in this cafe and I know you\nlike it, otherwise you would not\nlook so well.\nHe says nothing of the kind.\nHe says, well how did you enjoy\nyour lunch, mister; its kinda late\nfor lunch, but I suppose you had\nbreakfast late. I hope it's not going to spoil your dinner.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 * *\nI don't know whether you feel\nabout it as I do. I don't know\nwhether you catch the idea as I do.\nBut I regard this remark as part\nof a plan to make me eat three\nmeals a day whether my stomach\nwants it or not.\nThere is a calm assumption on\nhis part that I have already eaten\nonce and that if I have not there\nis something wrong with me.\nWhy? Because nearly everybody\neats breakfast in the morning.\nJust because nearly everybody\ndoes it, I should be expected to do\nit too.\nI resent this imputation.

Those of you\nwho are here today would not believe it, I am sure. To boll down\nhis flowery description of the college spirit at that time is this \u00E2\u0080\u0094\nthe young ladies and gentlemen attending the university at that time\nwere 100 per cent behind college\nathletics, dramatics, or any other\nform of entertainment the college\nhad to offer.\nBut alas! Those days seem to be\ngone forever. A young man sits in\na sales wicket from 12 to 1.30 and\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0ells three tickets to a rugby game.\nI spoke to several fellows about going to the game. One was going\ndowntown to a show, another was\ngoing mountain climbing and \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 a\nthird was going down to Stanley\nPark to feed the monkeys peanuts\nor something. There were between\n26 and 30 students at the game, I\nwould say. That Is real college\nspirit.\nThere is an offer made to the students via the Pass System to see\nthese college activities at a very\nlow cost, namely three dollars.\nThey pay five dollars at Saskatchewan. What do a lot of students do,\nespecially Sceincemen? They say\nby all means no! We do not want\nit! We shall fight it to the last\nditch.

C.\nKeeps Grads Active\nBy D. M. OWEN\nThe Alumni Association, through the adoption of its\nnew constitution, has provided for a system of branches to\nbe organized in any place where there are a sufficient number of u!b.C. Alumni to make an active organization. An\nExecutive Council, composed of a General Executive, elected\nat the Annual Meeting, and appointed representatives from\neach organized branch- is the governing body of the Association. Through this Council each branch is kept in touch\nwith the activities of the other branches, as well as being\nable to have its say in the orgahizaion and operation of the\nAlumni Association as a whole.\nThis last year has been a signal one ln that some 20 branches have\nbeen formed in many parts of the province, and the Dominion. Very\nstrong branches have been formed at New Westminster, Victoria, Trail,\nKelowna, Kamloops, Kimberley, Montreal, Toronto and Ottawa.\nOther centres where there are groups formed but which as yet have\nnot a large membership are those at North Vancouver, Prince Rupert,\nPenticton, Nelson, Cloverdale, Chilliwack and many others. The main\nactivities of the branches being of a social nature, supper meetings\nare the most popular.\nThe main duties of a branch are to maintain and protect ln every\npossible way the interests of the University. The University of British\nColumbia needs now more than ever before the support of all intelligent people who are capable of appreciating Hs problems. Tbe Alumni\nbeing for the most part an Intelligent group and being furthermore\npersonally acquainted with the problems of our Alma Mater are the\nlogical people to assume such a responsibility.\nOur purpose then Is to have the Alumni organized on such a basis\nthat should any emergency arise ln which they could express their\nopinion they would be in a position to do so. In the past the Alumni\nhave not been so well organized and any stand that they did take was\neither untimely or of little avail.\nOar work Is not restricted, however, to emergencies, but is of great\nbenefit to the University in other ways. The growing popularity of the\nAdult Extension Lectures throughout the Province has provided us with\nanother field in which to work. We hope to make it the job of each\nparticular Branch ot the Association to recommend and to advise on the\nchoice of any particular lecture topic, and/or lecturer ln their section\nof the Province. In this way our organization can be ot invaluable\nassistance we feel to the new Department of University Extension\nLectures.\nThe Brock Memorial Campaign is another example as to how our\nBranch organization may function. As this campaign originated, however, in the middle of our organization, we were not as effective as we\ncan or will be in a year or so. The system does provide a medium for\ncontacting our graduates wherever they meet, however, and the fact\nthat such groups are organized and can be utilized upon call is a\nvaluable factor for the University.\nYour Last\nChance\nto Sign for\nthe\nJ-kc J-&tem\nGet\nYour Waiver\nToday\nLAWRENCE\nBOOK SHOP\nbuys\nSchool Books, Commercial Klgb\nSchool and University\nText Book!\n181 WBST PXNDEB STBEB1\n(Next to Province)\nKelowna Alumni\nAssociation Report\nIn what some people call the\n\"great hinterland\" of British Columbia we have a branch of the Alumni Association.

This particular group is called the Kelowna\nBranch of the U.B.C. Alumni Association.\nDuring the past year its activities\nwere guided by the following executive:\nPresident, R. Spllsbury; Vice-\nPresident, Mrs. Ethelwyn Logle,\nTreasurer, Miss Marlon Miles,\nSecretary, T. M. Chalmers.\nThis association feels distinctly\nprivileged and highly honored in\nhaving had the responsibility of\nlooking after the local administration of the University Extension\nprogram. At present our executive\nis organizing the local details pertaining to this year's scheme,\nIn addition, it lent its weight and\nvociferous argument to the Union\nLibrary scheme. We feel a certain\namount of justifiable pride, therefore, in the fact that parts of the\nOkanagan shall, in time, have a library system comparable with those\nof some of the larger centres of\nB. C.\nWe follow, with keen Interest, the\nactivities at U. B. C. and are watchful for opportunities to advertise\nthe advantages of the University to\npotential undergraduates. While\ndistance prevents us from being\nwith you ln person, we are certainly with you ln spirit. We hope your\nHomecoming celebrations will be\nhighly successful.\nWhile you, at the coast, have your\nHomecoming ceremonies, we up\nhere also have our Reunion. It\nIs held at Kelowna. This article\nis written closely following this\nyear's \"gathering of the clans.\" We\nhad an attendance of over 80. Prof.\nDilworth and Dr. Kaye Lamb, as\nwell as j. N. Burnett were in attendance.

MACFARLANE\nSLUMMING\nUnlike we of U.B.C. whose official recognition of the fact that\nour city is a place of many parts\nis confined to a windy, muscle-binding snake parade, McGill students\nhave decided to discover exactly\nwhat are the component parts of\ntheir home-town and have accordingly set out to investigate life in\nthe raw by making a tour of the\ncity, from bright lights to grimy\nhovels, to get a bird's-eye view of\nthe whole works ... in short, to\nprobe its darkest corners and to\nAnd out its virtues and vices. It\nseems, however, that the idea is\nbudding hereabouts also.\nFrom authoritative sources I have\nit that one M.C. has discovered the\nideal starting point for such a thing\nas this\u00E2\u0080\u0094the Silver Slipper, somewhere on Hastings East. Further,\nit seems that the first experimental\ntour has been such a success that\na group of serious-minded young\ngentlemen of the campus have decided to get together on the sociological project. Whether the test\nis to be objective or subjective we\nhave not yet learned.\nThe only thing wrong with this\nidea is that the Mamas and Papas\nmight object. From latest reports\nwe learn that Manitoba has a student 14 years of age, another of 15\nyears, while Queen's has one also\n14 years. From our files we learn\nthat U.B.C.'s babe is IB . . . My,\nmy, maybe sociological training\nshould start at home. Which is a\npoint in favor of gowns. Possibly\nthe flowing robes might do something to alter the external appearances and bring about a psychological change of life.\nTo the women go my deepest\nsympathies. A dispatch from Manitoba tells of the exclusion of two\nsweet young law students there\nfrom the annual law banquet at\nwhich a roaring game of tiddli-\nwinks and a ginger-ale drinking\ncontest of vast proportions.\nBut Canadian women have no\nidea of the trials of their sex. According to Betty Taylor, McMaster\nUniversity's contribution to the\nOlympic games, all women in Germany are forbidden to use make-up\nand required to spend six months a\nyear in camp where she indulges\nin \"such manual labour as feeding\npigs . . . both animal and human.\"\nReturning again to where we\nstarted from, McGill, we And, early\nthis week, our vacuous bubble-like\nechoes of the big, bad days of initiation crashed to atoms by the roar\nof the thudering herds of Montreal\nstudents engrossed in communism\nand facism. We have on good\nauthority the statement of Dr. L.\nC. Marsh that \"McGill students are\ndecidedly not communistic. According to the professor, there are no\ntendencies to either communism or\nnationalism and no evidence of political bias.\nSince Montreal must advertise,\nwe'll do likewise. In fact, we have.\nThe Saskatchewan Sheaf of October\n9 carried a two-column three-deck\nhead in large type: \"All Hell'\nBreaks Loose When B. C. Freshmen Resist Initiation Rites.\" The\nmore conservative Manitoban carried a two-column, two-deck head:\n\"B. C. Freshmen Wage Vigorous\nwar on PROUD Sophmores.\" Between a freshmen hell and soph\npride our glorious Varaity begins\nto assume proportions which can\nonly be enhanced by the wearing\nof gowns.\nNOTICE\nThere will be a meeting of Rovers\nand ex-Scouts at noon, Wednesday\nnext, November 4, in Science 413.\nAll interested, please attend.\n&\nc&\nSurrounded by the formal atmosphere of the Commodore, but most informal In nature, was the Sophomore\nclass party held on Wednesday evening.\nParties ranging ln size from four to thirty members gave\nup their individual conversations and joined the general\nfestivities when Dudley Darling, alias Uncle Abner, directed\na hilarious Heel and Toe Polka.

She maintained that the group spirit was increased. \"Freshmen,\" she claimed,\n\"become group conscious , rather\nthan self-conscious.\" Cynthia McLean, the second speaker for the\naffirmative, attempted to show that\ninitiation was inappropriate on the\ncampus, and that it was a waste of\nmoney and time.\nKay Farquhar, who was commended by Dean Bollert for her\n\"legal mind,\" seised upon the loophole in the wording of the resolution to point out that it was a question of \"all\" initiation being banned.\nShe then proceeded to melt the\nhearts of the audience with the\nargument that initiation if it were\nproperly organized would make\nfreshmen realize their low status\nand would bridge the gap between\nhigh school and University. Mary\nRendell ably answered in rebuttal\nand secured the majority of the\nvotes of the house for the affirmative side.\nBefore the members adjourned\nKay Farquahar, president, announced the receipt of a letter\nfrom the Women's Debating Union In California, who plan to\nmeet U.B.C. in January.

The cost will average $2.00 a\npair and less than ten hours work. The Tailored Woman can supply\nyou with a personal pattern and instructions. It will take only three\nlessons to turn you into an expert glove maker. You can use the soft\nwashable chamois, pecary, capeskin, suede in any color, or the new duo-\ntones which are so perfect for sports wear. All the skins are imported\nfrom England. Think what an attractive Christmas present a pair of\nhand-sewn gloves would make. They are a pleasant present to give\nyourself, too.\nThe Wool Shop can teach you to knit all the new stitches with\ntheir soft, imported wools. They can supply you with patterns and change\nthem to suit your own measurements. If you wish to be skilled in craftsmanship just pay a visit to 2207 West 41st.\n* + * *\nShorter hair curled up off the face and neck That is the coiffure\ndecreed for this season.

So we will not\nstart there. Let us push on.\nIt is now 500 A.D., and very fine\nweather for the time of year, too.\nBut there are invasions ... the\nAlemanni, the Whatammanl, the\nFascisti, and other savage tribes\nare cleaning up on what is left of\nthe Roman Empire j baths and other evidences of civilisation are vanishing, and home life resembles\ngenerally a Scienceman's Idea of\na quiet Saturday night.\nCHAPTER I.\nAbout this time the futile system\nwas born. It continued tor some\ntime, and Is still used ln most of\nour Canadian Universities. The essence of the futile system was tbe\nvassal and the villein. (Not to be\ncontused with vassaline.) The\nvassal had to pay homage (a corruption of the French Frontage) to\nhis suierain, or patrol leader.\nAnyone who did thla three times\nbecame an Eagle Scout and could\nput his initials In any square.\nBesides this, there were Troubadours, who fulfilled much the same\nfunction as the modern iceman, and\nserfs. The serfs never bathed,\nshaved or anything like that. This\nwaa a good thing because they\nhadn't any soap anyway.\nThe main occupation ot the lords\nwas eating and drinking. Besides\nthis they had sackage, pillage, forfeiture, escheat, and the right of\nthe first night.\nIt was their duty to see that they\nintermarried so that there were at\nleast seven people who could claim\nescheated ln a card game.\n(Hext week: More about the futile system. The rise of the Huns,\neach flef when Its owner died, or\nguns, and the monks.)\n\"M-8\"\nI listened, cold and limp.\nI knew it would come\u00E2\u0080\u0094this the\ninevitable, that I had awaited so\nlong now.

I laid no\nblame on my friend \u00E2\u0080\u0094 little good\nwould it have done me In my\nplight! It was all the result of my\nown doggedness and folly.

A final order: a clashing of the gears of the\nmachine \u00E2\u0080\u0094 slowly the first strain\ncomes. ...\nI brace myself,\u00E2\u0080\u0094unconsciously\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nalthough I know the end is near.\n...

Shrdlu Is again to the\nfore. With the first Muck Page of the season, it seems\nsuitable to explain to the Frosh just what Muck Is.\nAnswer! Figure it out for yourselves.) All Muckator-\nials should end with a Joke. So we are going to end\nthis one right noy. Here is the joke (we hope).\nP.S.\u00E2\u0080\u0094It is not original!\nOn an Allied transport, during the war years, was\na regiment. In the regiment was a well-known magician. Finally, after much urging, he consented to give\nthe boys a show.\nSo, on the appointed evening, they assembled,\nand he went to work. He pulled coins out of the air,\nburned dollar bills and brought them back, made fifty-\ncent pieces out of phone slugs, and finally brought a\nlarge stack of bills into being in the centre of a bare\ntable.\nHe then went on to cards. He brought them out\nof the air, changed the spots on them, did everything.\nFollowing this, he produced about a hundred silk\nhandkerchiefs from apparently nowhere.\nThen, after a long pause, he held up his hand. He\nspoke.\n\"I will now count three. I will wave my magic\nwand> and say the old magic word: \"Blastit.\" And you\nshall see what you shall see.\"\nSo he counted three, waved his magic want and\nsaid: \"filastit.\" And, at that exact instant the ship\nstruck a mine, and was blown into a million pieces.\nThree days later, a survivor was picked up. It\nwas very sad. All he would say was: \"Of all the damn\nsilly tricks I ever saw!\"\nARE WE MICE OR ARE WE MEN\nIMITATIONS OF IMMORTALITY\nONE academic institution that needs clearing up\nIs the custom of beering up.\nUnder the existing circumstances\nThe thirsty scholar cannot quit beering when he fancies,\nBecause, for example, if he sits down at a table with eight people\nHe Is almost certain not to leave till his head feels like a steeple,\nDue to the fact that somebody will shout \"Nine up!' at the waiter\nUntil It comes to be your turn sooner or later.\nThe result Is, In this case, that you drink nine, or a multiple,\nWhich can be quite a few for one who prefers to tipple.\nEighteen beers, of course, are still conceivable,\nAnd even twenty-seven not quite unbelievable,\nBut thirty-six are quite a few to polish\nOff, being only four short of what Engineers claim to demolish.\nOnly who ever saw an Engineer with four dollars?\nThe only escape from the round-by-round evil at present\nIs to watt until you are feeling pleasant\nAnd then begin to yell and shout\nAnd If the waiter can hear you, he may throw you out.\nPretending to pass out, however, is hardly cricket,\nBesides If your friends are my friends they will probably go through\nyour pockets even to your last street-car ticket.\nThe Calendar\nExplained\nStudent Scribe Simplifies\nCampus Mystery\nSo you want to go to Varsity?\nWhy, Ood only knows, but there\nyou are. Thousands do It every\nyear. Allrlght. You get a little\ngreen book called the calendar.\nAnd then . . .\nWell It is really very simple.\nTake any paragraph la the calendar.

At the beginning of the year each student\npays five dollars to the A.S.U.W.\nand receives In return a card entitling him to go to any student\nfunotlon \u00E2\u0080\u0094 academic, aooial or\nathletic without extra eost.\nTo get into any ot these events,\nbe has first to present the card and\nthen sign his name in the presence\not an official exactly as it appears\non the card.

So\nfaV, these Grads have been, playing\nbetter soccer than our oWn boys,\nbut U. B. C. is as yet an unknown\npower, for Its strength has not met\na fair test up to the present. The\nSenior lineup will be the same as\nusual, and it is hoped that it will\nturn In a real game.\nJUNIORS\nU.B.C. Juniors have a game also,\nbut league red tape has kept the\nopponents and the battle-ground a\ndeep dark secret. Manager Norm\nFree states that last week's loss\nwas due to several of the forward\nline being unable to find the field,\nwith the result that he had no\nstrong men to press the play.

Although they're not exactly all midgets, the average height of 6 foot\n2 Inches boasted by the newsies will\nbe quite an advantage in rebound\nsnatches, overhead passes and looping long shots.\nBut the Alma Mammy-ites still\ncan't see themselves dropping this\ntilt. They figure a combination of\nbrains, experience, and speed is\nmore effective in piling up points\nthan brawn and height.\nWhether or not they have this\ncombination working smoothly will\nbe proven this Saturday.\nCoach Doc Montgomery has been\nslaving since the start of Varsity\nto get the boys ln shape, and If you\ncan take his word for It, he's sue\nceeded. Early morning practices\nwith everything from plain, ordinary shooting at the start, to a grueling 2-mile trek around the gym to\nfinish the cassaba-heavers off is the\nreason for the top condition of all\nthe lads.\nLINEUP\nAlthough it's still doubtful, here's\nthe possible starting lineup: \"Bugs\"\nBardsley and Rann Matthison, forwards; \"Joe\" Pringle, centre; \"Det\"\nDetwiller, \"Franny\" Mitchell,\nguards.

Swan has deserted\nbasketball for rugby till after\nChristmas.\nNatators Show Strength\nIn Inter-City Gala\nVarsity swimmers showed a little\nof their strength Wednesday night\nin the city championship gala at\nCrystal Pool when, with only two\nentries, they managed to take first\nplace in one event and make a fairly creditable showing ln another.\nPauline Banford, comely young\nfreshette from New Westminster,\nshowed the way to a starry field\nIn the hundred yard breaststroke,\nwhen she defeated Lynda Adams\nand Pat O'Hara, well-known local\nperformers, to capture the city\ntitle.\nGOOD FORM\nVarsity's entry In the men's med\nley relay showed good form, even\nif they did not make a place against\nsuch stellar teams as those representing the Vancouver A.S.C. and\nCrystal A.A.\nWash-Varsity\nIce Series\nAccording to word received by\nMaury Lambert, lee hockey prexy,\ncompetition will be reeumed thla\nyear with the Washington Husky\nloe squad.\nIn preparation for the series\nthe Thunderbird rubber-retrievers\nwill start work-outs Saturday\nmorning from 9 to 10, with practices starting tomorrow.\nLUCAS LEADS\nFIELD WITH\n16 Points\nMcPHEE FAILS\nTO ENTER\nOnce more the upperclass track\nstars reign supreme in the spiked*\nshoe sport on the campus. The\naggregation of sophs, juniors, seniors, wearers of the \"Varsity\" colours, defeated the newcomers\n46-41 in the traditional Frosh-\nVarsity meet.\nIn the two-day battle, galloping\n\"Luke\" Lucas loped home in front\nof the field, with 16 points, a single\ntally more than footballer Gordie\nHeron garnered through three\nfirsts. Wins in the 880 and mile\nput smooth-striding Vance Mc-\ncomber on top of the Freshmen\nheap.\nOne disappointment which slightly dampened the enthusiasm of\nsome 200 onlookers on Tuesday was\nthe non-entry of Howie McPhee in\nthe sprints. Howie decided to skip\nthe trackmen's premier performance because of a back injury sustained in ye old game of ruggah.\nJim Brown, last year's High\nSchool Intermediate champion was\nthe only casualty of the two-day\nsession.

Excitement is in the air,\nno one wants to miss the kick-off.\nYou can hear the band playing,\n\"The Blue and White.' Breathless\nwe arrive at the student section-\nalready full. Higher and higher we\nclimb, crawl over people craning\ntheir necks toward the far end, and\nflop Into our seats just as a shout\ngoes up\u00E2\u0080\u0094\"They're on.\" The Big\nBlue Team run in, cheer leaders\nspring into action, a pause while\nthey hold up their hands, \u00E2\u0080\u0094 then,\n\"Toronto, Toronto, Toronto Varsity\"\u00E2\u0080\u0094louder swells the cry from\na thousand throats. In answer from\nthe other end rings out\u00E2\u0080\u0094\"What's\nthe Matter with Old McQtU?\"\nTHI CROWD ROARS\nThe whistle blows, an expectant\nhush falls over the tense throng.\n\"Good kick\"\u00E2\u0080\u0094the ball sails well for-\nward, scrimmage follows scrimmage, the flght ever getting more\nfierce. \"Push it over, Varsity\"\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nonly ten yards to go and the second\ndown. But the line holds and they\nregain the ball as the whistle blows\nhalf-time.\nImmediately, the visiting band\nstrikes up, and has Us turn on the\nfield. Then the Varsity drums begin to beat, the formation march\ncommences. UP and down they\nproudly parade, Instruments gleaming in the sunlight. Turning down-\nfield ln the TJ. of T. formation they\nbreak into, \"Old Toronto, Mother\nEver Dear,\" which Is taken up by\ngrads and frosh alike.\nFAR INTO THE NIGHT\nThe second half begins \u00E2\u0080\u0094 the\nscore ia still even.

The jubilant crowd\nsurges onto the field and streams\nafter the band ln Us triumphal\nmarch through the streets. Night,\nfalls, but the sounds of revelry\nswell louder as victors rejoice and\ndefeated drown their sorrows.\nThere is no reason why the V. B.\nC. cannot make one game its major sport and get the whole student\nbody behind It. Nothing can build up\nup university as quickly and as ef-\neffectively as an Intercollegiate\ngame. Everyone gets up and shouts\nhimself hoarse whether he has ever\nattended a lecture or knows the\nmeaning of \"dear old Alma Mater.\"\nIf carloads of students can \"Follow the Band\" to Montreal or\nKingston, why cannot we do the\nsame to, for instance, Seattle?\nCanadian football differs only in a\nfew minor points from American\nand a compromise might be reached. It has been said we haven't\nthe material. It does take time to\ntrain a first-rate team, but it can\nbe done. If we can turn out an excellent English rugby team we can\ndo the same for Canadian football.\nAdmittedly, the former has finer\npoints as a game, but so tar it has\nbeen unable to draw the crowds.\nWOULD MAKE MONEY\nIf the public could be interested\nit would soon become a money-making proposition; students form only\nabout half the crowd in the Bast.\nA well-organized drive would raise\nmoney for a good stadium; tea\ndances after the game could be held\nin the Union Building that we hope\nto see erected next year, while fraternities or the Alumni could sponsor an evening dance. Build up a\nUniversity team and pep meetings\nwould soon be things ot the past.\nIf intercollegiate relations were established for one sport, others\nwould follow naturally. Train a\ngood team, erect a stadium to show\nit off, and then watch Varsity.\nSENIORS, ATTENTION!\nFees of one dollar must be paid\nby Monday if you want a Class\nParty on November Bth.

The lecturer will\nillustrate these changes on the\nblackboard, and at tha piano, and\nalso by phonograph records, representing the modern and ultra-modern schools.\nThe chair will be taken at 8.16 by\nthe Institute President, Mr. George\nE.

Before radios were heard of\nand when Marconi was wearing his\nfirst pair of long pants, here is what\nthe College Argus Annual was saying about Mr. Murray:\n\"A rhapsody In words, a dictionary In distress, un unsophisticated devotee of ths ooamologi-\ncal system of arohltachonlc methodology.

Though not active in\nthe Forum last year, Allen can be\nrelied on for a unique handling of\nhis side.\nGLENDON TO SPEAK\nEveryone is welcome and a large\nturnout is desired, as several items\nof policy will be'brought up for\ndiscussion.\nMr. J. F. Glendon, of Technocracy\nInc., will speak under the auspices\nof the Forum on November 10. Mr.\nGlendon has the reputation of a\ngood speaker and can be relied on\nto handle his subject in a more informative way than did Howard\nScott last year.

While attempting to eseape\nhe was eurprlsed by the guard\nwhom he hit with a potato-masher.

We have passed\nthe stage of mere Idle enthusiasm\nand something definite must be\ndone or the whole matter dropped.\"\n\"There are four courses open to\nus,\" he continued, \"First, the wearing of gowns might be made compulsory by a special motion of the\nStudent Council. Second, the same\nresult might be obtained by a similar motion passed by the Senate.\nThird, the whole matter might be\nleft to the personal wishes of the\nSeniors individually. Fourth, voluntary signatures ol those willing to\nwear gowns might be obtained.\"\nWILL C08T $476\nThe price to be paid per gown\nwas then discussed. \"Gowns of the\nbest quality English cloth, guaranteed not to run or fade, would cost\nabout $5.50 each, If ordered individually,\" stated Mr. Home, prior\nto the meeting. \"If however, the\nSenior Class can promise an order\nof not less than 200 gowns, this\nprice can be reduced to $4.75 per\ngown.\"\nWilson McDuffee, president of\nArts '37, assured the class that\nsince Arts '38 had already voted ln\nfavor of gowns, the Seniors would\nhave little difficulty in disposing of\nthe articles at the end of the year\nfor a reasonable sum, if they wished\nto do so. \"The Book Exchange,\"\nhe said, \"has agreed to undertake\nthe actual buying and selling for\nthe usual 10 per cent commission.\"\nVarious opinions were voiced by\nother members of the class. Bill\nDayton, president of Science '37,\nannounced that \"the Senior members of the Science faculty are vigorously opposed to gowns, the chief\nobjection being the uselessness or\neven nuisance of such apparel during laboratory hours.\"\nA show of hands disclosed the\nfact that 39 of those present were\nin favor and 30 against the wearing of gowns.

Delegates from\nall parts of the world, numbering\nat least 500, were in attendance. Besides chancellors and representatives of all the German universities, there were visitors from Sweden, Denmark, Czecho-Slovakia, and\na great number from Japan. Although not a delegate herself, Miss\nHallamore was present at two of\nthe functions.\nCOLORFUL OPENING\n\"The first of these was really\nvery colorful. It was the official\nopening of the celebrations when all\nthe delegates marched in their academic dress to the University\ngrounds. Here poles had been\nplaced in a line and national flags\nof the delegates were raised to the\naccompaniment of military music.\"\nThe next night an official reception in the form of a banquet and\ndance was tendered by the government in the old castle. Not being\na delegate, Miss Hallamore could\nnot attend, but along with other\nspectators, she enjoyed herself\nstanding in the streets watching\nguests arrive.\nMost impressive of all the Heidleberg celebrations, which lasted four\ndays, was the illumination of the\ncastle by torches, a special performance for visiters.\nLIT BY TORCHES\n\"The castle stands half-way on a\nhillside, against a black background\nof forests. The guests were as\nsembled on the opposite bank of\nthe river, and sharp at nine o'clock\na gun was fired. Simultaneously\nthe castle was lit up by torches.\nThese torches, which were placed\naround the ruined part of the castle,\nlasted about ten minutes and then\ngradually faded out. It was really\neffective, giving the impression of\nthe old castle being on fire.\"\nThe Germans have a definite flair\nfor the impressive and spectacular,\nin the opinion of Miss Hallamore.\nThey also staged at Heidleberg a\n\"Splendiferous\" array of fireworks\non the river bank, displaying in\nilluminated outline the Crest of the\nUniversity and its dates, 1386-1936.\nEntirely separate from the University festivities was a monstrous\nNazi celebration opening a huge\nnew amphitheatre built at the famous University town.\nPROPAGANDA\n\"This celebration,\" Miss Hallamore stated, \"was definitely propaganda and was an atternpt to revive an old German custom of\nmarking the winter and summer\nsolstice with bonfires. Leading from\nthe back of the large stone stage,\naround the sides, were stairs and\ndown these marched the German\ndelegates and officials, carrying\nNazi flags. Behind them came the\nconscription corps which had been\nworking on the project, carrying\nhighly polished spades. Then, just\nas the torch was tossed on the bonfire built on the stage, the workers\nraised their gleaming spades, which\ncaught and reflected the first faint\nglimmerings of the fire. Bugles\nthen were sounded to the four\ncorners of the heavens and were\nanswered back.\"\nLeaving Heidleberg, Miss Hallamore travelled south to the Black\nForest and stayed off at a delightful village called Lenkkirch. Very\nfew visitors come here, and in some\nways the place was rather primitive. The first night was the worse\nthough, she laughed, as she related\nhow, staying at the village inn, she\nhad been put in a room directly\nabove the cow barn. To the*accompaniment of fjentle moos, Miss Hallamore drifted off to slumber, only\nto wake bright nnd early when the\ncows were being taken out to pasture.\nRURAL DRAMATICS\nIn Southern Germany, the peasants are greatly interested in dramatics and produce some surprisingly good pageants, both historical\nand religious. One of these was\npresented by the inhabitants of\nLenzkirch during Miss Hallamore's\nstay there. It was historical in\ntheme, representing the deliverance by a local hero of that part\nof Germany from the rule of Napoleon.\n\"Practically all the villagers took\npart, and they seemed to be having\na marvellous time. The most amusing thing, though, was that they\neven put on the battles.\nThe side of the hill where the\naction took place was covered with\nlittle skirmishes, and every once in\na while an excited messenger would\ncome riding over the hill on a fat\nlumbering farm horse. Off to one\nside the villagers were standing in\na group, anxiously waiting to hear\nwhether they were to be rescued\nor not.\" '\nThis performance which lasted\nabout three hours, had to be presented on a Sunday, as amongst the\nprinciple properties were dismantled hayricks and weary farm\nhorses. Taking the place of the\nhayrick on the cart carriage, were\ncrude cannon, which the peasants\npulled hither and thither over the\nfield.\n\"I don't know what anybody\ncoming on to the village suddenly\nwould have thought was taking\nplace. There was a terrific din due\nto all the shooting and noise going\non.\"\nREFRESHMENT\nThe village having been won and\nthe peasants rescued, all repaired\nto the licensed premises to refresh\nthemselves. Then about ten or\neleven o'clock, the men, still dressed\nas French or Austrian soldiers, and\nthe women in their gaily-hued peasant costumes, returned home, some\nsadly overcome by the innkeeper's\nhospitality.\nFrom this delightful spot, Miss\nHallamore travleled next to Berch-\ntesgaden, in Southeastern Germany,\nwhere is situated Adolph Hitler's\nsummer home, and from there went\nto Munich.\nHere she spent about a month\nworking in the Library, and taking\nin a number of operas and musical\nevents honoring Mozart and Wagner.\nThe final ten days were spent on\nher way to Bremen, visiting cathedrals in the towns and cities.\nHEAVILY TAXED\nFor an ordinary tourist to get\nany definite conception of Hitler's\ninfluence on Germany is very difficult, Miss Hallamore found. Even\nthe Germans themselves have only\na very hazy conception of the trend\nof affairs.\n\"Outside of the fact that they\nknow they are being heavily taxed,\nthe majority of the people have no\nidea at all, or only very little idea\nof what is taking place. Either they\nare extremely pro-Nazi, very ardent\nNationalists, or else they are rather\nskeptical and questioning, though\nnot actually opposed to Hitler. They\ndo feel that Hitler offers them their\nonly chance of escape from conditions of post-war Germany.\"\nOn the surface things are extremely prosperous. There is a\ntremendous building program \u00E2\u0080\u0094\nhuge apartment blocks for the poor,\nreconditioning of historical buildings, and building of wonderful\nstate highways, along which there\nis no cross traffic, it being routed\neither over or under the highway.\nIn Southern Germany a large\nnumber of buildings are also being\nerected which are rumored as being\nnew armories.\nSeparate Faculty\nInvestigation\nIs Closed\nResults of Ubyssey\nSurvey Are\nGiven\nIn the investigation recently conducted by the Ubyssey into a periodical agitation among science students for formation of a separate\nscience faculty, a diversity ot attitudes has been uncovered, ranging\nfrom unconditional enthusiasm to\ndeprecation. The bacteriology department produced a strong reaction in favor of separation, closely\nfollowed by chemistry, while the\nphysics department did not appear\nparticularly Interested.\nADVANTAGES LISTED\nThe advantages listed by various\nstudents were fundamentally the\nsame. They felt that science students received a more specialized\ntraining than artsmen, a fact not\nshown in the degree of B.A., and\nthat a technical course should qualify them for a technical degree.\nThey also declared that science\nstudents should be given credit\nfor doing much more work than\nthose majoring In classics, for Instance.\nThe main advantage described\nwas the added prestige students\nwith a degree of B.Sc. would have\nwhen trying to land Jobs in local\nIndustries.\nWOULD COST TOO MUCH\nSeveral, however, felt that it was\nthe university granting a degree\nrather than the degree itself that\ncounted ln the long run. Others\nbelieved it would take U. B. C. too\nlong to establish the reputation for\nits B.Sc. that Its B.A. enjoys at\npresent.\nThe question of cost of a new\nfaculty Was raised as an important\nfactor, though many objectors believed it would be feasible to grant\na separate degree to science students in the same manner as the degree of BacHelor of Commerce Is\ngranted at present. Others felt\nthere would be too much confusion\nInvolved ln trying to place the dividing line between arts and science subjects.\nMany constructive suggestions\nwere made In an effort to eliminate\ndifficulties. These included the\nchanging of the Faculty of Applied\nScience to the Faculty of Engineering and the formation of a separate\nscience faculty. Another suggestion was to make the new degree\nretroactive to avoid discrimination\nagainst graduates of former years.\nA third was to give chemistry students an option of a B.A. or B.Sc\nwhen they graduated.\nVarsity Newt Service\nIs Extended By Papers\nAs a result of correspondence\nduring the summer between editors\nof The Ubyssey, The Gateway (Al-\nberta), The Manitoban (Manitoba)\nand The Sheaf (Saskatchewan) the\nWestern Intercollegiate Press Union, successful news venture of last\nyear, will be continued and extended.
