E. Wcstman, an assistant director of thc bureau, has just completed a tour of universities in\nBritish Columbia and will report\nhis findings shortly on summer\nemployment of students and their\nenlistment in tho armed forces and\nindustry.\nRecently representatives of tho\nLabor Department, the Defence\nDepartment and medical deans\nfrom several universities conferred on problems facing university\nstudents. Much of what transpired at that conference still remains a secret but tho govcrn-\nnicnt is giving \"very active consideration\" to a plan for increased assistance to students and no',\nonly medical students.\nOld Council\nInitiates\nSuccessors\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 STUDENTS' Council introduced an innovation at their mooting last Tuesday night in the way\nof waiters for their regular supper\nin the Brock. New Council members served the courses to the 1941-\n42 group as part of their Initiation\nrites.\nThe plan was adopted to cover\nup the lack of regular waitresses,\nwho refuse to wait upon councillors until they adopt a different\nattitude to their boss, Frank Underhill.\n\"They have persecuted him all\nyear with nagging about high\nprices and until they agree to lay\noff, wc refuse to wait,\" stated their\nspokesman.\nAsked for a statement, councillors were silent, but Rod Morris,\nnew president said he was tired\nof carrying dishes. \"Our food is\ncold when, wc finally sit down,\"\nho sUdcd, \"and I don't enjoy one\nminute of tho meeting.\n^XV*^8 OV5r5B,C' Pass Feature Money\nAll Students Subject Remains Same Until\nTo Call Next Month Next Year -Porter\nOTTAWA, APR. 2 (CUP):\u00E2\u0080\u0094Universities across tho Dominion will bo closed to students for the duration of the war and grounds and buildings taken over by tho military, a\nwell-informed spokesman revealed here late last night, following the last session of Parliament before it adjourned for the Easter recess.\nThis surprise announcement, coining close on tho heels of the government's new selective-service proclamation last week, means in effect that all male students will be subject\nto call by the Army immediately after the April examinations, and will not be able to continue their university education until after tho war.\nSixteen universities from British Columbia to Nova Scotia will be affected by the\nsweeping order. For the most part, the campuses will be taken over following the spring\nterm, although in some cases (including U.B.C.) the government will wait until the conclusion of summer school sessions before effecting too drastic changes.\n(UBYSSEY EXCLUSIVE)\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 AS SOON AS the amazing story above clicked\noff the teletype from Ottawa\nlate last night, Ubyssey reporters contacted officials of\nthe University of British Columbia to gain their reactions\nand obtain further particulars on how the new plan\nwill affect this campus.\nMost were nou-commital, reserving public statement until more\nInformation could he received from\nofficial quarters. A few, however,\nexpressed personal opinions, and\nventured suggestions on how the\nU.B.C. campus would he changed\nfrom a scene of academic learning\nto a veritable front-line of defence.\nSh\nrum\n\ij-b>vt}u\nACUTE DANGER\n\"Tho danger of invasion to our\nPacific Coast is so acute and Point\nGrey Ls such a strategic defense\narea that officials sec no alternative but to transform it into another Gibraltar fortress,\" one authority stated. He explained that defense preparations would get under\nway as soon as posisblc after tho\nspring term ended, and be in full\n. , . Non-Committal\nswing when tho summer session\nclosed in August.\nDetailed plans for #thc defenses\nto bo erected cannot bo divulged,\nbut It ls understood that tho army\nand alrforcc will work in close\ncollaboration.\nTho steep cliffs of Point Grey\nmake ideal natural barriers to any\ninvasion landing attempts, while\nthc largo level fields of the agricultural area at the rear can be\nconverted into excellent landing\nfields for R.C.A.F. planes. The\nsurrounding wooded areas will\nprobably be used by the R.C.A.\nfor heavy gun emplacements.\nTRANSFORMATIONS\nAccording to present plans, most\nof tho buildings will bo used as\ndormitories for the thousands of\ntroops who will displace university students here next fall. Similar use will be made of the buildings on the other campuses to be\ntaken over by tho government.\nWhile U.B.C. will be transformed\ninto an actual fighting bastion, it\nis understood the inland campuses\nwill become training centres for\nmilitary and air reinforcements.\nFaculty members will be conscripted to instruct trainees in divers\ntechnical courses essential to the\nbuilding of Canada's new mechanized army and airforce.\nCOCT Cadets . . .\n. . .

In the army,\nthis is known as doing everything on the\ndouble. Read on:\nOur platoon was assigned to one of\nthose small, red, English sergeant-majors,\nwhose attitude toward us quickly defined\nitself as being other than maternal. For the\nfirst five minutes he painted, in the vividly\nrich colours of Rubens, a word-picture of\nourselves as he saw us, and at the end of that\ntime three men in the front rank had to be\ncarried off for treatment \u00C2\u00A3f third degree\nburns. He had one of those military vocabularies of which the words spit in the eye\nbefore entering the ear, proceeding then to\nkick in the tympanum, leap into the stirrup,\nhurl the hammer onto the anvil, and finally\nplunge into the semi-circular canals, where\nthey lie sizzling sulphurously.\nIt soon became apparent that he intended to grace us with a full-length portrait\nwhich might take some time.\n\"Pardon me for interrupting, sir,'' I said\npolitely, \"but I am standing, in a puddle.\"\nSomething like a sigh escaped from his\nlips, singeing our eyebrows. .\n\"And whose fault is that?\" he demanded sharply, with what I suspected to be a\ntouch of sarcasm.\n\"Step out in front here!\" he snapped\nsuddenly, jarring my cap onto the back of\nmy head. '\nI plodded out before the squad, saluted\nwith a slight dash of curtsy, and stood\nwatching him apprehensively.\n\"Don't look at me, look at the squad!\"\nhe barked. \"They're younger than I am and\ncan stand it better.\"\nI pivotted around to meet the unsympathetic gaze of my comrades.\n\"Now we are going to have a little mutual instruction,\" he said, with a nasty laugh.\nMutual instruction, in the army, is when\nyou get out in front of God and everybody\nand make a fool of youself at no increase in\npay.\n\"Show them the left turn!\"\nI nudged the turf with my toe for a\nmoment, then said, in what I considered to\nbe an ingratiating manner:\n\"Well, fellows, my interpretation of this\nparticular gyration ...\"\n\"Stand at attention and take your hands\nout of your pockets!\"\n\"I beg to submit, sir,\" I said, \"that it\nwill have to be one or the other. If I take\nmy hands out of my pockets, my pants stand\nat ease automatically.\"\nI coughed slightly, and started again.\n\"Well, fellows, my interpretation . . .\"\n\"Talk louder!\"\n\"Well, fellows ...\"\n. \"Louder!\"\nI closed my eyes for a short period of\ncommunion with my soul.\n\"You don't mind if I butt in?\" I asked,\nquivering.\n\"A good idea!\" he shouted. \"And pull\nin your stomach as well. Throw out your\nchest!\"\nI withdrew and threw various parts.\n\"Is that a chest?\" he enquired with\nfeigned amazement. \"It looks more like a\njewel box,\"\n\"Well fellows . . .\"\n\"Prove your men, before you start!\"\n\"What do you think we are, fawns?\" I\ncried exasperatedly, but he had walked a-\nway to another group of sacrificial goats.\n\"I suppose you may as well move a-\nround, chaps,\" I suggested graciously. \"Quick\nmarch, if you feel up to it.\"\nThey moved off down the field. Then,\na ghastly thought struck my mind: I didn't\nknow the command to stop them.\n\"Righto, you can toddle back now!\" I\nyelled, but they seemed not to hear me.\n\"That's far enough, gentlemen! Stop,\nfellows! Halloo there!\"\nSlowly the khaki figures diminished in\nsize marching steadily into the distance, and\nfinally disappearing over a hill, the. sun\nglinting on the last cap badge. Then \u00E2\u0080\u0094\nemptiness.\nI was alone. A cow in the next field\nstared at me unemotionally through the\nfence, ruminatively chewing Us cud. Frogs\nin nearby pools were croaking what sounded like \"Jerk! Jerk! Jerk!\"\nI sat down on a stone to think the thing\nout.\n\"WHERE'S YOUR SQUAD!\" a familiar\nvoice bellowed behind me.\nI rose to meet the abrasion.\n\"No stoop, no squint, no squad!\" I chirruped miserably.\n\"You mean you have lost thirty men?\"\nhe screamed.\n\"Maybe if we put an ad in the paper .\n. ...\" I volunteered\u00E2\u0080\u0094but it was too late.\nTho sergeant-major was sitting cross-\nlegged on the ground, eating his puttees with\ngreat deliberation, and there was in his eye\na light that never was on land or sea.\nI think it was then that I ceased officially to be officer material.\nHOW TO ANSWER AN EXAM ..\nQUESTION \t\nQUESTION: Discuss thc following poem in relation to the industrial revolution In Guatemala.\nGive examples:\n\"Oh!

He was the last of sixteen children. Thto i3 the only\navailable record we have of his\nfather. His family was very poor,\nhis mother having ceased to show\nany initiative after Julius' birth.\nGertrude was a red-headed ticket-\ntaker on a merry-go-round. There\nis no record of how far Julius went\non the merry-go-round. They\nwere quite friendly, and having\nsix children and a small farm,\nwhere they spent all but their\nspare time.\nThis poem is made up entirely of\nheroic cutlets. This puts the meat\nin the metre.

Idea of the poll was to quiz coeds as to their\nlikes and dislikes during the ycar.\nHeading the list of likes was that hard drinking D.U.\nMack Buck. More than 50 coeds expressed their opinion,\nwith plenty of oh's and ah's over the great big Buck. Most\nstated phrase received from tho girls about Mack Buck, and\nwe quote:\n\"He's tall, he's slightly dark, he's a Frat man, he's a\nrugger player and his name is Buck.\"\nUsually this statement was accompanied with the lolly-\npop-liko expression \"mmm mmmm.\"\nComing a close second to the almighty Buck in the\ncoeds' desire list was the \"slick and mighty smooth man\"\nDoug Maloney.\nReasons for picking this grinning Irishman were varied\nand at times admittedly confusing. Pet like among tho girls\nabout Doug seemed to he as follows, again we quote:\n\"What gets me about Doug,\" answered Susie Swartz\nto the quiz, \" is the way he talks to you. You get the feeling\nhe's got something to sell or give away.\"\nJimmy Boughten won the booby prize hands down in\nthis survey. Boughten, otherwise known as \"Dumbo\" among\nthe gals who know him, ran an easy last, beating out Dave\n\"the cafe lover\" Richie.\nIt is in the dislike section, however, that the survey\nbecomes really interesting.\nIn the case of these opinions there was no one, and we\nare glad to say this, who was entirely disliked. Most of the\ngirls' ideas were of a mixed variety. A few of tho many are\nstated below, in condensed form.\nJimmy (if you got a car I love you) Aiken; most expressed opinion of Jimmy was as follows: \"Jimmy's all right\nbut gosh, he moves so fast, don't you think so?\"\nJohn (slap my back) Carson; most candid opinion of\nCarson was \"he's just six feet of manly horrified friendliness,\nthat's all.\"\nKits, the Farina trained and\nconditioned coached boys won tho\nInter - High Championship last\nweek when they defeated P.W,\nSaturday they will tackle the\nVictoria men in an atempt to repeat Uieir last victory and gain\nthe B.
