When finished voting he was seen to take a casual stroll through the throngs\nthat gathered to watch him. His pockets afterward bulged noticeably.\nThe heavily-publicized pool referendum barely squeaked past\nthe two thirds majority it required in campus voting Thursday.\nThe referendum passed by a 67.3 per cent majority \u00E2\u0080\u0094 less\nthan one per cent over the necessary total.\nOf the 4,124 students voting, 2,776 favored of the $2.8 million\ncovered pool, 1,318 were against and 30 spoiled their ballots.\nBy approving the referendum, students authorized up to\n$925,000 of their funds \u00E2\u0080\u0094 one third of the total cost \u00E2\u0080\u0094 to be spent\non construction of the pool. The university administration has\nalready pledged the same amount. Organizers are hoping to\nraise more than a third of the\ncost from private sources in\nwhich case students will\nsimply pay the balance.\nIf students pay the full third\nthey will hand over an extra\nfive dollars per year for 20\nyears \u00E2\u0080\u0094 totalling about $2\nmillion \u00E2\u0080\u0094 for capital costs and\ninterest charges.\nThe referendum includes th3\nprovision that the pool must be\nconstructed near the student\nunion building and that\nstudents have have equal\nrepresentation in planning and\nmanagement of the facility.\nStudents also get equal\nswimming time with outside\ngroups.\nAlso passed Thursday was a\nconstitutional referendum\ndeleting the clause barring\npolitical clubs from running\ncandidates in Alma Mater\nSociety elections.\t\nThe referendum was. a\nhouse-cleaning measure by the\nAMS council after the same\nvote failed for lack of a quorum\nat last year's general meeting.\nVoting also catapulted three\nnew faces into the student\npolitical scene.\nDouglas MacKay won the\nAMS ombudsperson position\nwith 1,394 votes to Coreen\nDouglas' 887 and David Varnes' 432.\nThe number of spoiled\nballots was unusually high at\n806.\nJames McEwan was elected\ngrad studies senator with 64\nvotes beating Alan Davis at 47\nand S. J. Rosval at 42. Thirty-\nfour ballots were spoiled.\nThe new arts senator is Jay\nMunsie who was elected with\n385 votes followed by John\nMaclachlin with 354. There\nwere 179 spoils.\nFUS urges chariot race boycott\nBy KEN DODD\nStudents should boycott the\nannual Teacup Chariot race,\nforestry undergraduate society\npresident Doug Baker said\nThursday.\nHe said his support of the\nboycott stems from the\ntragedy-marred race two\nyears ago. After it, the FUS\nlisted the causualties as:\n\"broken ribs on two guys, nine\nstitches in the face, five on top\nof the head, broken teeth,\nnumerous charley horses,\nsevered tendons on the hand\nand multitudinous bruises.\nMore than 50 went to the\nuniversity hospital for tetanus\nshots. \"And of course there\nwas Dave Parminter,\" he said.\nParminter suffered severe\nlacerations below the elbow of\nhis left arm and for a time\nthere was a doubt whether it\ncould be saved.\nFearing the members of his\nsociety are forgetting the\nevents of two years ago, Baker\nsaid he sees a movement\nforming to re-enter the\nforesters in the event they\noverwhelmingly pledged to\ndrop out of two years ago.\n\"I saw the change before as\nthe race definitely took on a\nmore violent nature. The whole\nthing builds up until the pin\ndrops and something happens,\" Baker said Thursday.\n\"Now I feel the trend\ndeveloping again. In three or\nfour years we may well be\nback in the race.\"\nBaker said he sees another\nserious accident happening if\nthe rivalry is re-kindled. He\nsaid alternatives should be\nsought.\nSo obviously do the nurses\nand women from Home\nEconomics, the competitors in\nthe Teacup football game.\nThey refused to play this\nyear unless the chariot race\nwas shifted from half-time\nuntil after the game.\nThis gives people the choice\nof staying to watch the race or\nleaving after the game.\nBaker said FUS has con-\nRobinson quits\nAlma Mater Society general manager Brian\nRobinson resigned this week to return to his\noriginal position as a social worker.\nAMS president Doug Aldridge, in announcing the resignation Thursday, said SUB\nbuilding manager Graeme Vance will become\nacting general manager Oct. 13 until a\nreplacement can be found.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2Robinson's contract with the AMS terminates Jan. 5, 1973. Aldridge said Robinson\nhas agreed to stay on in an advisory capacity\nuntil then.\nHe will also be at full salary until then, and\nwill receive three months salary as severance\npay.\nAldridge and Robinson declined to reveal\nthe amount of the salary.\nVance said he has \"no idea\" whether he will\napply for the job as a permanent position.\n\"I will carry the position until such time as\nthe society and management people sort out\nwhat they are going to do,\" he said.\nAldridge said the executive has not yet had\ntime to discuss its plans for filling the position.\nRobinson said he has not heard any names\ndiscussed by the executive but said: \"I think\nGraeme might apply if and when the job is\nopen.\"\nHe cited Vance's experience within the AMS\nmanagement organization as one reason why\nhe might apply.\nRobinson said he is \"kind of excited about\ngetting back into social work.\"\nHe said he cannot reveal who he will be\nworking for because negotiations are not yet\ncomplete.\nHe said there were no major problems in his\none year term as general manager though he\nsaid he found council members sometimes\noverstepped their responsibilities and interfered with management.\n\"Relations between the university and the\nsociety is another thing that is an on-going\nstruggle,\" he said.\nUniversity involvement with the AMS in\ndecision making concerning students is\nsporadic, he said.\nsidered two possible alternatives to raise money for\ncrippled children.\n\"One is selling Christmas\ntrees which anybody can get\nwholesale. Or forestry could\ngrow their own. We have the\nspace to produce several\nhundred trees each year.\"\nThe other, more novel\nsuggestion is selling cuttings\nfrom the sycamore tree under\nwhich Hippocrates once\ntaught, 500 of which are owned\nby a forestry professor.\nBaker said he is critical of\nthe engineers for not seriously\nconsidering possible alternatives. He said their attitude\nis \"they've got a good thing\ngoing so why stop it?\"\nEUS president Harold\nCunliffe echoes this. He said:\n\"It is very hard to think up\nanything better than a chariot\nrace.\"\nOutlining why he thought the\nrace should continue Cunliffe\nsaid, \"all participants have an\nexcellent time and engineering\nspectators like to see it.\"\nTwo years ago an estimated\n5,000, spectators attended. Last\nyear the figure dropped to\napproximately 1,200. And this\nyear. Baker said he hopes\nnobody will go. Even the\nengineers.

There was no cow in the\nstory as is popularly supposed.\nAs a matter of fact, added\nTodd, as the wife of a\nprosperous merchant she\nprobably didn't even own a\ncow.\nLaura Secord was a very\nstrong-willed woman and she\nused the story of her war\nservice to win privileges for\nher.husband and herself after\nthe war.\nBut history books don't\nmention that aggressive,\nunfeminine facet of Secord's\ncharacter.\nEssentially she was a good\nwoman and mother \"entirely\nsuitable to be an historical\nimage for Canadian\nschoolgirls.\"\nTodd talked about a number\nof Canadian women who were\nheroines to our grandmothers\nbut didn't make the history\nbooks.\nOne determined woman, E.\nCora Hind, went out and rented\na typewriter when she was\nrefused a job at the Winnipeg\nFree Press, taught herself to\ntype and bacame (pause for\neffect) the first female typist\nwest of the Great Lakes,\" said\nTodd and laughed along with\nthe audience.\nShe went on to say that Hind,\nthrough her contacts with\nfarmers and manufacturers,\nbecame a world famous crop\npredicter and later the\nagricultural expert on the Free\nPress.\nAnother woman, novelist\nNelly McClung was inspired by\nHind to become a journalist\nand in 1929 was one of five\nwomen to force the British\nPrivy Council to allow seats in\nthe senate.\nBut these women were the\nexceptional ones who made\ntheir way in a man's world, she\nreminded her audience.\nThe pioneer women who\nstruggled and died bearing\nchildren and doing hard,\nkilling, domestic labor didn't\nhave time to leave written\nrecords.\nFor the most part, said Todd,\n\"women's identity has\nremained in the realm of\nprivate memory.\n\"But I believe that a good\ndeal of it can be recovered.\"\nSince the beginning of the\ntwentieth century women have\nparticipated in history outside\nthe home as teachers, nurses,\nmidwives, seamstresses,\nranchers, sheepshearers and\nso on.\n\"But farthest from the realm\nof traditional history is what\nthe majority of Canadian\nwomen have done \u00E2\u0080\u0094 domestic\nhousework.\"\nTodd said that throughout\nhistory women have been pre-\nSPAGHETTI HOUSE LTD.\n4450 West 10th Ave.\nHot Delicious Tasty Pizzas\n- 22 DIFFERENT FLAVORS -\nBARBECUED SPARERIBS - CHARBROILED STEAKS\nFREE DELIVERY - Right to Your Door\nPhone 224-1720 - 224-6336\nHOURS - MON.

But\nthe big question is whether the\ncouncil executive can legally\nnominate a person for the\naward without a council vote.\nCouncil rejected Pearson as\nnominee for the award Sept. 27\nwhen the executive first\nsubmitted his name after an in\ncamera meeting. So with\nAldridge's announcement on\nWednesday the executive has\nessentially bypassed a council\nvote.\nGrad student representative\nStan Persky objected because\n\"for the executive to appoint\nitself to select a nominee,\nsupposedly chosen by the\nwhole council, is against\nregulations.\"\nPersky's motion that the\nProfs might help Meszaros\nThe executive of the UBC faculty\nassociation is considering supportive action for\nIstvan Meszaros in his dispute with the\nCanadian immigration department.\nThe government has denied landed immigrant status to Meszaros, an internationally-\nknown Marxist scholar, on grounds he is a\nsecurity risk.\nAt Thursday's association meeting,;\nassociate history professor Jan Bak moved\nsupport; be given to a protest telegram sent to\nfederal immigration minister Bryce Mackasey\nby the Canadian Association of University\nTeacher's Committee of Academic Freedom\nand Tenure.\nHowever, few members were present so the\nmotion was referred to the executive for action.\nAssociation vice-president professor Leon\nGetz said the executive would consider the\nrequest within the next few days.\nMeszaros, formerly of the University of\nBudapest, resigned a senior post at Britain's\nUniversity of Sussex to accept a teaching job at\nYork University in Toronto this fall.\nBut after being interviewed by Canadian\nimmigration officials in London, he was informed his visa had been refused for unstated\nsecurity reasons.\nThe CAUT committee's telegram urged\nMackasey to reverse the decision.\n' 'We recognize the right, under the Canadian\nImmigration Act, of the minister to exercise\ndiscretion in cases where issues of national\nsecurity are involved.\n\"But we are not convinced that this\ndiscretionary power would be wisely applied\nagainst Meszaros whose political ideology,\nrather than any criminal or subversive activities, appears to be the bar of admission.\"\nBak, a colleague of Meszaros in Budapest,\nhas been soliting support at UBC for his\nstruggle during the past 10 days.\nHe personally sent a petition with 30 names\nto Makasey last week, and since then has\ncollected another 50 names.\nThe Canadian government has offered\nMeszaros a special permit allowing him to live\nand work in Canada for one year on the condition he withdraw his application for an immigrant visa.\nMeszaros, however, rejected the offer\nbecause it could be revoked at any time and\ndoes not deny his alleged \"security risk.\"\nBak said he agreed with the decision.\n\"It's not an issue where some starving\nimmigrant is on the street and we need to let\nhim work to feed his family.\n\"It's the political implication that is important.\"\nexecutive be censured for this\naction was defeated. The\nstrange thing about the vote on\nthe motion was that the\nexecutive voted \u00E2\u0080\u0094 for itself.\nThen arts rep Keith\nRichardson moved to censure\nThe Ubyssey for publishing\nPearson's name after the Sept.\n27 in camera session of the\nexecutive when Pearson's\nname was first discussed.\nThe motion passed 19 to\nthree.\nAldridge said things\ndiscussed at in camera council\nmeetings are not to be\ndisclosed. \"But we cannot tell\nThe Ubyssey not to print information from an in camera\nmeeting.\"\n\"I am very disappointed that\nthe name discussed in the\nmeeting leaked out,\" he said.\nAldridge then announced\nthat it was possible that\nPearson would sue the AMS\nbecause some allegedly incorrect information had appeared with Pearson's name in\nThe Ubyssey.\n(The AMS is the publisher of\nThe Ubyssey).\nCouncil also reversed a\nfinance committee motion to\nprohibit the speakers and\neducation committee spending\n$728.50 on bringing the Neens\nto UBC.\nThe expenditure was approved by council though it\namounted to about 35 per cent\nof the speakers and education\ncommittee's budget.\nThe council meeting was\nheld at Place Vanier's Gordon\nShrum common block to encourage residents to attend.\nBut few students knew that\nthere was a meeting there,\nfewer knew what the meeting\nwas for, and still fewer actually walked in and listened.\nThe consensus of the council\nwas that the almost nil 'normal' student attendance was\ndue to poor advertising.\nThe council intends to meet\nat a place other than its\nchamber once a month.\nStaff holiday declared\nAs Monday is the 423rd anniversary of the invention of goat\ncheese The Ubyssey staff hereby declares a holiday.\nStaffers will devote Monday to droll caprice and lecherous\nmerriment and will not be available for anything as vulgar as\njournalism.\nAs a result there will be no paper Tuesday.\nIf anybody tells you he is celebrating Thanksgiving Monday\nhe's a liar and worse, a closet goat cheese fancier. Page 4\nTHE UBYSSEY\nFriday, October 6, 1972\nGoon show\nSee the picture? It's not very pretty, is it.\nIt shows what happens when a sadistic mob\npromotes violence in the name of charity.\nThe injury happened two years ago at the annual\nchariot race, a Gahan Wilson delight traditionally held\nduring half-time at the Teacup football game.\nThe race consists of groups of students hauling\nmakeshift chariots around the Thunderbird Stadium\ntrack. During the race they hurl shit and other debris at\neach other. Once acid was thrown and a student's eyes\nseriously damaged. Great fun.\nThe whole affair seems to be a hang:over from the\ndays when mobs of engineers roamed the campus\nlooking for longhairsto throw in the library pond.\nTo put it bluntly, the chariot race is nothing but a\nmedium for a minority of engineers to exhibit the\nsadistic debauchery they call fun. It's got to stop.\nGranted there were few injuries in the chariot race\nlast year. But people forget and gradually the \"fun\" gets\nrougher and eventually someone will get seriously hurt\nor even killed.\nTo their credit, the forestry students have refused\nto have anything to do with the chariot race since the\n1970 debacle. And the nursing and home ec students\nhave refused to allow the chariot race to be held during\nhalf-time of the Teacup game.\nHowever, a few agriculture and engineering students\ncontinue to promote the sordid event.\nThis is why we agree with forestry undergrad\npresident Doug Baker's suggestion that students boycott\nthe chariot race. It seems to be the only way to get the\nevent stopped.\nThe boycott is really very simple. When the football\ngame is over, get up and walk out.\nIt will take some self-discipline. After all, when an\nevent promises to produce a casualty list rivalling that of\nGuadalcanal, people will want to hang around and\nwatch the action.\nBut we don't call watching people get hurt \"fun\".\nWe call it sadism.\nSo when next Thursday's Teacup game is over,\nremember the boycott and walk out. We hope the\ndemonstration of non-support will be enough (to mix a\nfew metaphors) to haul the few remaining Neanderthals\nout of the dark ages.\nLetters\nIdiocy\nNo. 2\nThe letter titled \"idiocy\"\nwhich appeared in the October\n3 issue of The Ubyssey\ndemands an answer.\nMr. Fox's suggestion that not\nconsidering the possibility of\nfive successive $5 fee increases\ndemonstrates a lack of perspective is questionable to say\nthe least. His knowledge of the\ncurrent fee structure is\nsketchy. The AMS fee is $24 per\nstudent, not $29 as he suggests.\nThe $5 athletic fee is collected\ndirectly by the administration.\nThe discretionary portion of\nthe current fee is $9. The\nremaining $15 provides the\nannual capital and interest\npayments of SUB. The original\n$10 SUB fee was introduced in\n1961 bringing the total AMS fee\nto is present level of $24. Approval was given in March,\n1961, with an 85 per cent vote. A\nfurther referendum was\npassed in March, 1964, which\nincreased the building fee by $5\nbringing the total AMS fee to\n$29. In April, 1968, students\nvoted to transfer control of $5\nfor athletics to the administration which reduced the\ntotal AMS fee to its 1961 level of\n$24 per student. The last AMS\nfee increase before 1961 was in\n1953. Does this constitute a\ndramatic rise in the last few\nyears, Mr. Fox?\nA successful pool referendum will bring the total AMS\nfee back to its 1964 level of $29\nwhich will still be the lowest\nstudent fee at any university in\nCanada. Will this strangle the\naspirations of future student\nbodies and councils?\nA student takeover of food\nservices in SUB is considered\nby this executive as \"a real\nissue\". The idea was backed by\na 73.2 per cent yes vote in a\nreferendum held on Feb. 2 of\nthis year. I would be interested\nto find out where the $500,000\nfigure, quoted by Mr. Fox,\ncame from. Negotiations with\nthe board have yet to take\nplace on this subject. In any\nevent, the takeover will not\nmean an increase in AMS fees.\nWe are proposing to extend the\ncurrent $15 SUB fee for several\nyears (depending on the\npurchase price). This proposal\nis based on the idea that\nstudents who will use the\nfacility should also pay a\nportion of the capital cost. It\nremoves the necessity of\nmaking $180,000 per year from\nthe operation itself \u00E2\u0080\u0094 a\nsituation faced by the\nuniversity because of the\nprovincial government policy\nregarding ancillary services.\nThe most important result will\nbe an improvement in the\nquality and variety of the food\nbeing served in SUB. As The\nUbyssey pointed out in an\neditorial earlier this year,\nstudents would be able to get\nrid of the AMS executive if they\ndo not live up to this prediction.\nThat option is presently not\navailable and we are faced\nwith a food services monopoly\non campus.\nI am happy to see Mr. Fox's\nsuggested programs. The 1971\ngrad class gave the university\ndaycare council a gift of $2,750.\nThe AMS has provided a $1,500\ninterest free loan and recently\ngranted a deferral on\nrepayments until May, 1973.\nThe AMS has previously offered to guarantee a $60,000\nloan for the construction of a\ndaycare centre on campus\nprovided that the daycare\ncouncil became affiliated with\nthe AMS. This is required\nunder the societies act but was\nnot acceptable to the members\nof the daycare council.\nA student-owned cooperative store in SUB has\nbeen under consideration since\nthe announcement of the\nlocation of the Walter H. Gage\nresidences. An initial investigation carried out by Ken\nTeskey, our assistant\ntreasurer, with the help from\nStan Oberg of the faculty of\ncommerce indicates that such\na facility is feasible only in\nconnection with a student run'\nfood service. Volume buying is\nthe key to low retail prices in\nthe grocery business. The high\nvolume business in the SUB\ncafeteria could be used to\nmake a grocery outlet possible.\nA student-owned public\nbroadcasting station has been\nconsidered for several years.\nThe problem lies with the\nfederal government's\nCanadian Radio and Television\nCommission. Their previous\nrulings have indicated that\nthey consider the Vancouver\narea to be saturated with\ncommercial stations. We could\napply for a public broadcasting\nlicence but this would disallow\nany form of advertising. A full\ntime government certified\ntechnician must be at the\nstation at all times when it is on\nthe air. Then, there's the\n$20,000 required of a transmitter. I don't believe that\nstudents would be willing to\nsubsidize such an operation.\nThe credit union scheme is a\ngood one and deserves further\ninvestigation. Teri Ball, our\nexternal affairs officer, is\nlooking into course credit for\nAMS officers at other\nuniversities in order to formulate a presentation to the\nsenate here at UBC. Course\ncredit could also be applied for\nUbyssey staffers and CYVR.\nHopefully, our student\nsenators will be able to present\nand support Teri's proposal. If\nwe had more time, we would be\nable to offer many other\nprograms.\nFinally, as stated in Mr.\nFox's letter, the AMS is extremely short of discretionary\nTM UBYSSEY\nOCTOBER 6, 1972\nPublished Tuesdays and Fridays throughout the university year by\nthe Alma Mater Society of the University of B.C.

What funds are\navailable have been allocated\nin what we consider the most\nequitable way. In order to\nincrease the grant to The\nUbyssey or to fund Karl Burau\nwould mean decreasing the\ngrants to other worthwhile\nprograms. The only other\noption is to run special\nreferendums for increased\nfunding to support these and\nother programs.\nDoug Aldridge\nAMS president\nIrate\nIn your last editorial I was\nmentioned as being opposed to\nthe proposed $5 fee increase\nthat the AMS wants from each\nstudent to construct a new\ncovered pool.\nSince the supposed reasons\nfor my opposition, that you\ngave, were completely incorrect, I am writing this to set\nthe record straight.\nI am against the fee increase\nfor the very simple reason that\nno one has come up with cne\ngood argument in favor of it.\nOf course it would be nice to\nhave a covered pool. It would\nalso be nice to have a new\ncovered racing track so that\nanyone who wanted to could\nengage in horse-racing or\nequestrian competition.\nIt would be nice to have a\nnew indoor sports complex\nmodelled along the lines of the\nHouston Agrodome. It would\npresumably be nice to have a\nnew entertainment park\ncomplete with roily-coasters,\nferris-wheels and freak shows\nThe point is, there would be\nall sorts of \"nice things\" that\ncould be built here which would\nbe just as useful as a new\ncovered pool.\nAt the present time, the\nuniversit entrance fees in B.C.\nare so outrageous that only a\nsmall sector of the population\ncan afford it. This has been\npointed out innumerable times\nbefore but I will say it again:\nthe university at present is\nrestricted for the use of a small\nelite of the population (people\nfrom the upper income and\nmiddle income bracket).\nObviously, persons from very\npoor backgrounds can make it\nbut they constitute a minority.\nThis is not a matter of opinion:\nit is a simple matter of\nstatistics.\nAnd so, a five dollar fee\nincrease alone would not make\nthat much difference but I am\nopposed in principle to the idea\nof increasing an already\nover large fee.\nIf the five dollars must be\nspent, then there are so many\nbetter things that it could be\nspent on. It could be used to\nbuild day-care centres, a\nstudent-run food co-operative,\ncheap student housing . . . The\nlist is endless and you've all\nheard it before. Perhaps, when\nthe millenium comes, and\nevery human being is happy,\nfree, content, etc. \u00E2\u0080\u0094 then we\ncan start talking about\nluxuries like new covered\npools.\nTo speak of constructing a\nmillion dollar pool, when some\nstudents find difficulty in\npaying their room and board\nwould be laughable if not so\nsick. If the five dollars must be\nspent, it could be used to help\npeople on welfare buy proper\nfood (rather than the starchy\ndiet they live on now); it could\nbe used to help all the old\npeople who are barely subsisting on government alms; it\ncould be used to help all the\nmangled and wrecked in our\nsociety.\nOf course, $5 charity (ugly\nword) from a few thousand\nstudents would hardly help a\ndamned bit, but at least it\nwould indicate a rearrangement in the students'\npriorities, in his outlook. To\nquote Lenny Bruce, so long as\nthere exists one man who has\ntwo coats, when someone else\nhas none at all, the first man is\na criminal.\nI will conclude by saying that\nI fould your editorial in this\nsubject in last day's paper,\nidiotic. In fact, in your whole\neditorial policy this year, you\nhave excelled in only one\nthing: fence-sitting, vagueness\nand ambiguity. So far (unlike\npapers of past years) you have\nnot attacked a single AMS\npolicy except one: when they\nthreatened to cut funds to The\nUbyssey.\nYou more or less supported\nthe pool referendum and the\nincongruous AMS plan to buy\nout SUB food services. In your\neditorial on the board of\ngovernors, you suggested\nreplacing the big business\nhacks with a few pseudo-left-\nwing hacks but did not question\nthe concept of a board of\nRUSHAN\no\nX\nr-\n2\ns\nz\na.\nLU\no>\nQ_\n_j\nO\nH-\nf POINT\ns SHOP\n3-Speeds\n'69.00\nFREE \u00E2\u0080\u0094 FREE\n\"\", 10-SPEEDS\nFenders \u00E2\u0080\u0094 Carrier \u00E2\u0080\u0094 Light Set\nWe're Overstocked!\nSTUDENT DISCOUNT\nTheft Insurance \u00E2\u0080\u0094 Cables \u00E2\u0080\u0094 Locks\n3771 W. 10th (near Alma)\n224-3536\nThe Abominable\nDr. Phibes\nS.U.B.

We see their excursions into the worlds of hard drugs, transcendental\nmeditation and psychedelic fashion. The result of their\nattempt to free themselves from maintaining \"a public\nimage of 'nice boys' \" was that \"life began to imitate art\"\nand a \"generation began to extract a new set of values from\ntheir music\".\nThe Apple in the title can probably be seen not just as\nmeaning the Apple Company, or the poisoned apple of the\nfairy-tale, but also as the apple in the garden of Eden.\nHaving bitten the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good\nand evil, the Beatles showed no evidence of being able to\ndistinguish between the two.\nThe authors reveal some insight into their subject when\nthey write:\nNot until 1964 did Bob Dylan offer them their first joint.\nBut the initial barriers to drugs, which any five\nprovincial boys might then be expected to maintain,\nwere broken down in Hamburg. The Beatles'\nwillingness to experiment with anything new they were\noffered, as behavioural pattern which a generation\ncopied, was evident even then.\nThis characteristic of a generation \u00E2\u0080\u0094 the refusal to accept\nlimits to action \u00E2\u0080\u0094 reached its 'reductio ad absurdum', its\nmost disgusting manifestation years later when\nthe management of the Fillmore East had decided that\nits recent audiences had deteriorated far enough. It\nannounced that it was closing its doors forever. \"The\nfloor was covered with broken wine bottles some\nnights,\" said manager Kip Cohen. \"The people coming\nhere were almost Neanderthal in their approach to\nliving.\"\nYoko Ono's \"nihilistic art\" is just one more manifestation\nof this tendency.\nYoko Ono's husband John, considered the most\n\"revolutionary\" of the Beatles, is spotlighted in this\nhilarious description as a \"gigantic hypocrite\":\nJohn was on public display, in bed with Yoko, staging a\ndemonstration for peace. At just a mention of Sir Lew\nGrade's name, John forgot all about acorns and his\npeace message. A.T.V.'s bid brought out the fighter in\nhim. \"I won't sell,\" he declared.\nJohn and Yoko deserve the treatment they get in this\nbook. They are described as \"on their way to rivalling\nRichard Burton and Liz Taylor for the title of world's\nbiggest bores.\"\nIt is with a description of Geroge Harrison's Madison\nSquare Garden concert in aid of the refugees of Bangladesh\nthat Apple To The Core begins. After reading the rest of the\nbook it gives one a feeling of optimism to return to this\nconcert. It symbolizes a possible re-orientation of the rock\nworld in a more sane, yet idealistic direction.\nThe title of the last chapter of this book sums up a lot of\npeople's feelings about the Beatles: \"The Sum of the Four\nParts No Longer Equals The Whole.\"\nA FILMSOC Presentation\nAn open coffin...\nAn empty grave...and\nnine doomed\nCOLOR\nmen!\nlilt \u00E2\u0080\u0094\naBOIAvnmwl\n7*\nVINCENT PRICE JOSEPH COTTEN\nTERRY-THOMAS\nTHURS., OCT. 5-7 P.M.\nFRI. & SAT. - 7 P.M., 9:30 P.M.\nSUN. - 7 P.M.\nSUB AUDITORIUM - 50 Cents\nVARSITY GRILL\n4381 W. 10th\n(Beside Varsity Theatre)\nCHINESE & WESTERN\nFOOD\nFREE QUICK DELIVER Y\nServing Students\nfor 16 years.\n224-1822 224-3944\nIn your spare time...\nEARN UP TO $1000 OR MORE\n(Our top sub agent earned $2500 last year)\nBe an Authorized Sub Agent\nfor the distribution of\nCANADA SAVINGS BONDS\n\u00E2\u0080\u0094contact\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nKEN HARRIS\nMcLeod, Young, Weir & Company Limited\n681-0111\n*\nshoe fcoiifroue\nstoned\nSmashing in Black or Brown Leather\nOnly $26.00\nl\nOpen Thursday and Friday Nites\nC.O.D. orders accepted.

Student members\nare Grant Burnyeat, law 2, Ted\nZacks. law 3 and Ball,\nagriculture 3.\nFaculty members are Bill\nArmstrong, deputy administration president, R. A.\nLuckas and arts dean Douglas\nKenny.\nThe bill of rights will replace\nthe faculty council subcommittee rulings on student\ndiscipline if it is approved by\nthe senate. This would then be\nused as the official document\nof the student court.\nBall said the new association\nwill give a voice to the smaller\ncolleges.\nShe said students on smaller\ncampuses will not be\nrecognized by the propsed\nNational Student Union.\nThe association's aims are to\npursue matters of concern to\nB.C. students, create greater\ncommunication between\ncampuses and allow use of\nresources by other students.\nThe last organization to try\nthis was the B.C. Union of\nStudents headed by former\nAMS president Tony Hodge.\nBall said it did not work\nbecause it was too structured.\nShe said the new union will\nhave a procedure manual and\nwill be conducted informally.\nBall said B.C. will be\nrepresented as a block in the\nupcoming National Student\nUnion Conference in Ottawa.\nShe said they wil work in cooperation with each other.\nOther provinces having their\nown student unions are\nQuebec, Ontario and\nSaskatchewan.\nregister as if his domicile were a university\nresidence,\" Mostyn said.\nIf your domicile is where you live then to\nvote merely get in touch with the returning\nofficer of your riding before Oct. 13 and\nregister.\nIf, however, you are one of those unfortunate\nwhose domicile is where your parents live then\nthe procedure through which you must go to\nvote is very involved.\nFirst, go to the office of one of the political\nparties or returning officer, or university\nregistrar and get a copy of the form covered by\nSection 17-18 of the election act. Fill this in and\nimail it to the returning officer, of your parent's\niriding, before Oct. 13.\nAlternately, have your parents pick up the\nform in their riding and fill it out for you.\nNow you are registered, but unless you are\ngoing to be at your parents home Oct. 30 you\ncan't vote. (!)\nIf you are going to be at the university\nelection day you can't vote absentee, because\nthere is no such thing in a federal election.\nInstead you have to vote proxy.\nSo it's back to the office of a political party\nreturning officer or the registrar to pick up\nform 47.\nForm 47 establishes your residence at\nuniversity and transfers your vote to one of\nyour parents who will vote proxy for you on\nelection day.\nFill it out and mail it to them.\nWhen your parents get this form they must\ntake it to the returning officer of their riding\nbefore Oct. 27.\nThe returning officer will then fill out a\nproxy certificate authorizing one of them to\nvote for you on election day.\nThat's it!

Our signs\nwere up first, our house-to-house visits have been the most\ncomprehensive, and the important thing to emerge from\ntalking with you has been the defining of the issues closest to\nyour political hearts. Which is why it was important that I\nmeet you in the first place.\n* * *\nEmerging from the visits comes the fact that one of the major\nconcerns to most of us is the shocking tax mess that has been\nallowed to happen by the Trudeau Government. As a\nchartered accountant I am unable to understand many of the\nnew sections of the Act that Trudeau rammed through\nParliament last year.\nBenson (remember him?) admitted that many changes would\nbe necessary to clarify the more glaring anomalies and\ncontradictions. While the Trudeau Government has been\nexperimenting with taxpayers, many companies and individuals have been unable to plan for the future and many new\nprojects have had to be postponed. These delays have added\nconsiderably to the unemployment picture, especially among\nthe young voters.\nWhat did Quadra's sitting member of Parliament have to say\nabout that?\nTo correct the tax situation, the Stanfield Team has proposed\nthat various taxes be reduced in order to stimulate the\neconomy through increased spending and greater demand for\ngoods and services. These are not pie-in-the-sky theories, but\nsound economic practices that put the economic destiny of\nthe people in their own hands.\nAlso, we will cancel the three per cent income tax surcharge\nthat a Trudeau Government will reinstate in January of next\nyear. Further, we will reduce taxes by four per cent,\nretroactive to July of this year.\n* * #\nThere is no doubt in the minds of the Progressive Conservative\nresearchers that such tax cuts can be effected, that compensatory savings can be initiated by paring off the bureaucratic\nexcesses that have taken place under Trudeau and that the\nvoters will have a share in shaping their own futures by'\nmanaging more of their own money rather than letting the\ngovernment mismanage it.\nWe should be prepared to pay for essential services by the\nfederal government and then contribute to help the helpless,\nbut federal taxation should stop there.\nWaste and inefficiencies must be stopped, and when the\nStanfield team stops them, there will be no need for high taxes\nto support prodigal spending.\nWe also propose the \"Constant Dollar Taxation Plan\", under\nwhich the taxpayer may deduct from his income the percentage increase in cost of living before arriving at a taxable\nincome.\nBill Clarke is the Progressive Conservative Candidate in\nVancouver Quadra.

One, he\nsaid, was the threatened boycott by\nAfrican states (and black American\nathletes) if white-supremecist\nRhodesia was allowed to compete. The\nother was the chain of events that led to\nthe deaths of the Israeli athletes, TV\ncommentators covering the games\nexpressed much shock that the\n'Olympic peace' had been shattered.\nAnd,' there were loud laments that\n'politics had invaded sports'.\nOne may of course wonder about the\nsort of mentality that equates a\npeaceful boycott against a racist\nregime with a commando action that\nleads to 11 deaths. And, the people of\nVietnam may be excused if, in the\nmidst of the daily hail of American\nbombs and death, they wonder what\nthe American news media mean when\nthey say that the 'Olympic peace' has\nbeen shattered. Nor was there any\n'Olympic peace' for the hundreds of\nstudent demonstrators who were\nsimply rounded up and shot by\nMexican troops at the 1968 Mexico City\nOlympics.\nIt's interesting to review the record\nof the sporting establishment that wept\nsuch plentiful tears at Munich. Once\nbefore there was a German Olympics.\nAnd, then too, the Olympic kingpins\ncharged that politics had invaded\nsports. The incidents which at that time\nsparked a mass movement in America\nto boycott the 1936 Berlin games are\neloquently described in professor\nRichard Mandell's book The Nazi\nOlympics. At thst time, the issue was\nwhether Hitler was barring Jewish\nathletes from the German Olympic\nteam.\nThe American Olympic establishment repeatedly claimed that the\nNazis weren't discriminating\nagainst Jewish athletes or, if they\nwere, it was irrelevant, Eventually,\nas the movement to boycott the\nOlympics gathered momentum in\nAmerica, they sent general Charles\nSherrill (a member of the American\nand International Olympic committees) to Berlin to negotiate with the\nNazis. Sherrill vigorously opposed the\nboycott and, upon his return, discussed\nthe reasons for his mission:\n\"I went to Germany for the purpose\nof getting at least one Jew on the\ngerman Olympic team and I feel that\nmy job is finished. As for the obstacles\nplaced in the way of Jewish athletes or\nany others trying to reach Olympic\nability, I would have no more business\ndiscussing that in Germany than if the\nGermans attempted to discuss the\nNegro situation in the American south\nor the treatment of the Japanese in\nCalifornia.\"\nHe also claimed that he k(W many\nJews who opposed a boycott and who\nfeared that it would be overplaying the\nJewish hand in America as it was\noverplayed in Germany before the\npresent suppression and expulsion of\nthe Jews were undertaken. The next\nday, Frederick Rubin, then secretary\nof the American Olympic Committee\nannounced his position:\n\"Germans are not discriminating\nagainst Jews in their Olympic tryouts.\nThe Jews are eliminated because they\nare not good enough as athletes. Why,\nthere are not a dozen Jews in the world\nof Olympic calibre.\"\nGeneral Sherrill later appeared\nbefore the Italian Chamber of Commerce in New York and praised\nMussolini as \"a man of courage in a\nworld of pussyfooters,\" adding, \"I wish\nto God he'd come over here and have a\nchance to do that same thing.\"\nThe president of the American\nOlympic Committee (and close\n>. - \u00C2\u00BB\u00E2\u0096\u00A0 <\nhaJt '?Hfe\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0\u00C2\u00BB\u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00C2\u00BB>/\nm\nv.\n^s^h^I w&& &$$* Friday, October 6, 1972\nTHE UBYSSEY\nPage 13\nbig-time sports 'political'\ncolleague of Sherrill and Rubin) was\nBrundage. He has remained at the top\nof the Olympic establishment ever\nsince, and is currently head of the\nInternational Olympic Committee. He\nopposed the anti-Nazi boycott just as he\nwas later to oppose the black boycott.\nHe opposed exclusion of Germany in\n1936, of Japan in 1940, and of Rhodesia\nand South Africa in 1968.\nIn 1936, according to Mandell,\nBrundage and his supporters posed as\nbeing far above petty chauvinism, a\nposition that did not prevent them from\noccasionally praising the visible ac-.\ncomplishments of the Nazis and from\nslurring the adherents of the boycott\ncommittee on fair play as being \"reds\"\nor even \"communists\".\nIn May 1968, Ramparts magazine\nreported that Brundage had told an\nAAU National Convention that the\nGerman Jews were satisfied with their\ntreatment under the Nazis. Was this\njust a hastily thought out view based\nlargely on ignorance? Apparently not.\nFor, even after Brundage made the trip\nto Nazi Germany with the 1936\nAmerican Olympic team, he returned\nto a packed rally of 20,000 at Madison\nSquare Gardens with heady praise for\nthe Nazi establishment. According to\nthe Oct. 3,1936 New York Times, Avery\nBrundage brought his audience to their\nfeet cheering in an outburst of enthusiasm when he paid tribute to the\nReich under Adolf Hitler. He told\nthem: \"We can learn much from\nGermany. We, too, if we wish to\npreserve our institutions, must stamp\nout communism. We, too, must take\nsteps to arrest the decline of\npatriotism.\"\nRamparts reported that as late as\nAugust 1940, Brundage was serving as\nhead of Citizens to Keep America Out\nof War, a group now known to have\nbeen Nazi-supported. It came as no\ngreat surprise that the only two Jews\non the American track and field team,\nSam Stoller and Marty Glickman, were\nmysteriously dropped from the\n400-metre relay team just before the\nstart of the Berlin games.\nNo one would argue that the Nazi\nOlympics weren't 'political'. It might\nalso be argued that all of the other\nOlympiads and indeed all of our\nbigtime sports programs have been\npolitical too. Though Brundage has\nalways been very concerned about\npolitics invading sport when fascist\ncountries were threatened with\ndebarrment from the Olympics, he\nnever worried himself unduly at the\nexclusion of the Soviet Union from the\nOlympics until the 1950s. And ever\nsince then, it has not been uncommon\nfor the American news media, despite\ntheir professed concern that politics\nshould stay outside sport to report the\ngames as if they were a main event of\nthe cold war contest: America versus\nRussia.\n\"Olympics athletes,\" writes Alex\nNatari in his book Sport and Society,\n\"have become soldiers of sport who are\nindoctrinated with grotesque conceptions of national prestige.\" Today,\ninternational competitive sport has\nbeome everywhere, whether openly or\nsecretly, a propaganda weapon in\nworld affairs which through the incitement of inherent nationalist instincts points ways and means to new\nmethods of psychological warfare\". In\nshort, the Olympics has become\nnationalism in a jockstrap.\nBut, except in degree, this is hardly\nsomething new. The nationalistic\nmilitaristic element has always been\npresent in sport. Indeed, what we call\nsports evolved historically out of the\nsort of 'blood sports' that provided\npractice and perparation for battlle.\nThus, even in the original Greek\nOlympiads, the sorts of skills emphasized (things like speed of foot and\njavelin throwing) were the sorts of\nthings thought most useful in battle.\nSo, too, with the gladiator fights of\nthe Roman amphitheatre, the jousting\ntournaments of Medieval knights, and\neven with the rebirth of the Olympics in\n1896. Professor Mandell points out that,\nthough Baron Pierre de Coubertin, the\nfounder of the modern Olympic Games,\nis usually depicted as some sort of saint\nconcerned solely with the welfare of\nmankind, he was in reality a French\njingoist, nursing a grudge against\nGermany for her victory in the 1870\nFranco-Prussian war. Baron de\nCoubertin explicitly proclaimed that he\nwas the Olympics as a badly needed\nway of re-invigorating French youth,\nand toughening the nation up for\nanother round with Germany. A\nposition, incidently, not so different'\nfrom that of President Kennedy, who\nsaw competitive sports and the\nOlympics as a good way to build up the\n'national fibre for the cold war with\nRussia.\nA couple of years ago, paraphrasing\nthe Duke of Wellington, the deputy\neditor of the London Sunday Telegraph,\nPeregrine Worsthorne, noted that what\nhe called \"the race of Imperial Men\nthat built the British Empire\" was\nformed on the playing fields of Eton\nand Harrow, the elite English prep\nschools. Peter Mcintosh in his able\nbook Sport in Society, notes that the\nmilitarized games like rugby that\ngained popularity during the\nrenaissance of British imperialism in\nthe latter part of the nineteenth century\n\"encouraged just those qualities of cooperation and conformity to the needs\nof the herd which were so much prized\nby a middle class which was\nestablishing its power and influence\nthroughout the world.\"\nIn our own increasingly turbulent\nera, there are many important voices\nin the athletic establishment who look\nupon sports almost as a weapon of class\nwarfare. \"To me,\" said Washington\nState University football coach Jim\nSweeney a couple of years ago,\n\"football and athletics are a fortress\nthat has held the wall against radical\nelements. I look for them to continue to\nplay that same role\". Speaking before\na chapter meeting of the American\nAssociation of University Professors\nlast year, the University of Tulsa\nfootball coach declared that \"football\nprevents communism\". The rationale\nfor this kind of thinking was given a few\nyears ago by Homer D. Babbidge,\npresident of the University of Connecticut. \"Our teams and our players,\"\nremarked Babbidge to the National\nAssociation of Collegiate Athletic\nDirectors, \"by and large, are the guys\nin the white hats \u00E2\u0080\u0094 they keep their hair\ncut short, they're clean, they're or-\n. derly, aware of the importance of law\nand order and discipline. The students\nand others who come to watch us play\nare the people who respect tradition\nand institutional pride ...\"\nSimilarly, in a recent speech to the\nTouchdown Club of Birmingham, Ala.,\nin which he attacked critics of the\nsports establishment, vice-president\nSpiro Agnew remarked that \"Sports \u00E2\u0080\u0094\nall sports \u00E2\u0080\u0094 is one of the few bits of glue\nthat holds society together ...\" But,\nwhose conception of 'society'? And,\nwhere there is disagreement \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 about\nwhich forces in society should\npredominate, how much does the\npresent organization of American sport\ngive support to one side of the\nargument over the other? What\nBerkeley sociology professor Harry\nEdwards calls the 'plantation atmosphere' of American sports with\nblack athletes on the bottom and white\nofficials and coaches on the top has\nalready given rise to athletic strikes,\nboycotts and disruptions at over 100\nAmerican colleges, as well as\nthreatened boycotts at the last two\nOlympics. Oberlin athletic director\nJack Scott says that a nationally\nprominent track coach told him that\n\"unless we can find a way to separate\nthe decent Negroes from the\ntroublemakers and militants, we're\ngoing to stop recruiting all Negroes\".\n\"Football is not a democracy,\" says\nUniversity of Pittsburgh grid coach\nCarl DePasqua. \"There's nothing to\ndebate. The players can debate in\npolitical science class.\" Syracuse's\nBen Schwartzwalder agrees.\nBack in the days when the jocks at\nthe University of California, Columbia,\nand a score of other institutions were\nbeating up student demonstrators,\nthere was no great fear that the\nathletes were 'political'. Jim Bouton, in\nhis book Ball Four, points out that as\nlong as professional baseball players\ncould be depended upon rabidly to\nsupport the Vietnam war, the army,\nthe generals, the flag, no one in\nbaseball's establishement worried\nabout what they were saying or\nwhether it was 'political'.\nIn 1970, for the first time in history,\nthe American Broadcasting Company\nrefused to televise the half-time show\nof the Holy Cross-Buffalo football game\nbecause it was 'political'. The Buffalo\nmarching band had scheduled\nsimulated formations of smoking\nfactories and exploding bombs and\nwould play such 'controversial' songs\nas We Shall Overcome and Give Peace\na Chance. A few weeks later, ABC and\nthe NCAA proudly televised the half-\ntime at the army-navy game, complete\nwith a squad of Army Rangers who had\njust returned from an abortive raid on\na North Vietnamese PoW camp, and.\ngreetings from the joint chiefs of staff.\nNothing 'political' about that.\nSimilarly, when the two black\nAmerican trackmen Wayne Collette\nand Vince Mathews were evicted from\nthe Munich Olympics, many American\nsportswriters complained that it was\nbecause they were trying to make a\npolitical demonstration. This may well\nbe true. But, the fact is that the playing\nof the national anthems at an international sporting event that claims\nto be above politics is, in itself, a highly\npolitical act. The fact was then that\nCollette and Mathews were thrown out,\nnot for anything they did or didn't do in\nthe actual Olympic competition, but\nbecause their casual behavior was\nregarded as an unwarranted interference in what amounted to a\npolitical demonstration by the international Olympic establishment.\nNor is the Olympic competition itself\nall that apolitical. Though the actual\nathletic events themselves be as pure\nas the driven snow, when you introduce\nnationalistic TV commentators to root\nfor their national teams, spend millions\nof dollars on build-up and promotion,\nfill the stands with thousands and\nthousands of fans (not to mention the\nmulti-millions of TV watchers around\nthe world), you end up with something\nwhich is so overblown that it becomes\nwhat the Roman emperors used to call\nbread and circuses for the masses.\nHoch, a former University of Toronto\ngraduate student, is an assistant\nprofessor specializing in sport\nsociology at Oberlin College. He is the\nauthor of the forthcoming Doubleday\nAnchor paperback Rip Off: the Big\nGame, on the political sociology of\nsports and their relation to society.

Nothing to do. You\nfeel like a dead man.\"\nHe said that in the Seventh\nStep meetings, \"I had to face\nthe truth about myself and it\nwasn't very pleasant. But I\nthink I'm partially on the way\nback \u00E2\u0080\u0094 I'm now working five\ndays a week.\"\nUBC law professor Mike\nJackson looked at the ways in\nwhich Canada could learn from\nCalifornian prison reforms.\n\"In California they have an\nindeterminate sentence with\nthe idea being you release the.\ninmate when he's\nrehabilitated.\"\nBut Jackson said there are\nmore and more prison\nrehabilitation programs and\npsychologists deciding when\nthe inmates can be released.\nHe said more prisoners\nwere joining programs only to\nget out of prison, but that in\nCalifornia most of the\nprograms had little effect.\nWhen asked whether self-help\nis the only answer, Jackson\nsaid the prisoners are saying\nthay are the products of\nghettos, poorer communities,\nand low education and they're\ntrying to work out alternatives\nthat would be of value to them.\n\"All we're offering is a\ntrade, but this is not enough.\"\nHe said prison life strips a\nperson of all responsibility but\n\"to give a person more\nresponsibility may be one way\nto encourage them to re-enter\nsociety.\"\nHe said prisoners should be\ngiven more responsibility in\nactually running the prison but\nadded prison officials would\nhave to divest themselves of\nsome of their responsibility\nand they might be reluctant to\ndo this.\nTom Gordon, an ex-convict\nand executive director of the\nSeventh Step Foundation, told\nthe audience meetings in\nCanada are smaller than those\nin the U.S. to allow more\npersonal involvement. Sex\noffenders and \"stool pigeons\"\naren't allowed to join the\ngroups.\nGary told a query from the\naudience an ex-convict serves\nhis sentice for the rest of his\nlife. A credit bureau wouldn't\nfinance his house because he\nwas an ex-con, he said.\n\"But why hide it, they have\ntheir systems of finding out.\nYou've got to learn to live with\nit.\"\nAn ex-convict speaking from\nthe audience claimed: \"I don't\nbelieve in Seventh Step or,\nanything else. When you decide\nto quit doing time, that's it.\n\"All that counselling can\nonly help make you a better\nbehaved convict.\"\nDoug McGregor, director of\nMatsqui correctional institution, asked: \"How do you\nsort out the phonies from the\ninmates who are really interested in doing something\nwith themselves?\"\nHe said at present there are\nhot enough members and no\nfacilities for Seventh Step to\ntheBOOKFINDER\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 COLES NOTES\nSCHAUMS\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 NEW AND USED TEXTS\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 POSTERS \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 CANADIANA\nWE SELL BOOKS ON CONSIGNMENT!\nmaintain a separate institution\nfrom prison.\n\"Like anything else, if we\nhave an organization with\nspecial status, it attracts the\njerks, goofs, and screwballs.\"\nMcGregor stressed the\ncommunity role in\nrehabilitation, saying that\nalthough some changes can\ntake place withing the prison,\nthe best results take place in\nthe community.\nWhen asked whether Seventh\nStep membership has any\nbearing on obtaining parole,\nDuffy said it was not any one\nthing but a pattern of considerations that would help\nmembers get out of proson,\nsuch as learning a trade,\njoining a group and personal\nbehaviour.\nDonna Tyndall, representing\nthe B.C. Association of Non-\nStatus Indians, said Indians,\nmade up only ten per cent of\nthe Canadian population and\nyet .the largest per cent of\nprisoners.\nAddressing her question to\nDoug McGregor she said:\n\"Trudeau agrees that native\npeople have special\nproblems \u00E2\u0080\u0094 what are you\ndoing to cope with these\nproblems?\"\nMcGregor at first said \"no\ncomment\" but after some\nhissing from the audience, he\nadded a woman has been\nappointed in Ottawa and she is\ntravelling around to learn\nabout prison systems.\n\"Why do they send someone\naround to tell us what we\nshould do? Why don't they send\nsomeone who knows\nsomething? Why don't they\nsend an Indian?\" asked\nTyndall.\nYOUR PRESCRIPTION . . .\n...
